This first 18 mins or so has been pretty dire.

Tactical setup is garbage. We’ve got no way of building play through the lines so continually resort to pumping it long.

 

Not according to WV. He's loving this.

 

This is the response we get to a 4 nil hammering? 0 shots after 20 minutes.

Defence went to sleep. Goal totally out of nowhere. I tell you what the obvious problem of signing all these players has been clear in the first 15 minutes.

Nobody seems to know what to do. Buying more this week has only really made things worse. Either way, Moore’s style has not changed much since last season, so it appears to be a case of hoping the players were the problem.

Well that pass there from Heneghan sums it up pretty well

That’s exactly right. This is precisely the problem.

The problem is a manager who is Aspin levels of bad.

should be 0-2

First observations - why are we knocking it long from Ripley when we don't win anything in the air up front? It never sticks, and keeps coming back into midfield for the opposition to win. We are just giving the ball away so cheaply. Get a foot on it in midfield and give our strikers the ball on the ground to run on to.  Hoofing it in the air just isn't working.

A great neatly weighted over the top ball from Sharp and a brilliantly taken finish by their lad. But once again we're totally vulnerable at the back .

Absolutely spot-on!

Is cover playing Cb? Sometimes ahead of John on the right sometimes in the middle not sure where he’s playing 

I don't think any of our players have got a clue what they're doing ,this football reminds me of the bing crosby era , tbh
