Who would you have brought on to change things then Homer?
Good luck with that one.

I disagree. I thought Konchesky and Schmeichel had good games, but I thought Peltier was terrible today and had probably his worst game since signing for us. Was constantly getting skinned by their left winger.

Anybody else feel that our crowd were even shitter than usual today? When the team needed us to really raise the roof we were found sadly lacking yet again.
Totally & completely agree.& as I've said before at least twice the man in question is Robert Koren.A winger would be nice too.I can never fault Dyer for his effort & he's been good for us in his time here,but we need better quality.
We won't sign any players from Hull this season

When was the last time we won 2 back-to-back games in the league?
I have a hard time convincing myself that the midfield four he has played throughout gives us our best chance of winning. Is Wellens really better for us than Fernandes or Johnson? That Dyer is essentially an ever present is worrying in a number of ways. Our issues stem almost entirely from the midfield...and it's where, squadwise, he should be flush with options.
I was hoping after last weeks defeat that he would make some adjustments in that area. Perhaps now he will mix things up.
When two teams let us play, as opposed to getting 9 men behind the ball or closing us down in midfield?
No other midfield combination this season has done anything to suggest they give us a better chance of winning matches. Our squad has several midfielders all at about the same level and all only capable of doing the same job as one another. We are paying the price for Eriksson's transfer policy and for the willingness of the owners to allow him to spend millions on 'names' because he won some stuff over ten years ago.
I was a big fan of Eriksson not long ago. As recently as his sacking in fact. But the longer the season goes on the more apparent it becomes that he has crippled our promotion hopes for this season. Pearson needs more than just the January transfer window and the rest of the season to sort this out, I'm afraid.
