I feel the main reason why we are struggling in most games is because of the lightweight make up of our squad who are just not cut out for a relegation battle which we knew we would be in from the start.
The back four players have been pretty robust whoever plays plus Brannagan and Matos in front of them, however every other player in midfield or attack isn’t up to the physical side of the game.
Harris
Mills
Placheta
Dembele
Goodrham
Rodrigues
Phillips
El Mizouni.
Vaulks
Romery
All of these players get brushed off the ball far too easily, and usually don’t get the free kicks they are looking for. They are all the same, the ball never sticks with them and if it does they can’t keep hold of it.
We let Owen Dale go but I tell you what he never went down without a fight ,the players mentioned don’t seem to be ready to fight for every ball.I know he may not offer as much as Phillips or Dembele but I know who I would rather have fighting for me.
Unfortunately for us Josh Murphy didn’t stay with us, I have watched him in a few games ,he fights for everything and only goes down when he is fouled he doesn’t get brushed aside.That four year contract he was after may come back to haunt us because it will cost us far more if we are relegated
Our recruitment team must take a hard look at themselves, too many of our team are fair weather players, and to be honest really don’t look like they are up for it
So Saturday is a must win game, if we don’t beat Watford I feel we are doomed
