I can safely say that was the worst performance I have seen at S6 for years!!! I wll not accuse the players of not trying, its far worse than that because those players playing today were just plain crap!!!
I would not lay much blame at the feet of Rhodes and Joao, we had absolutely no ability or intent to attack for the whole of the first half, they got no service bar long balls. This defeat was down to the injuries we have and the quality, or lack of, of the supposed second string players in the squad.
As Imre said, Butterfield was all over the place for starters but there appeared to be no one in the defence or midfield who could play a forward pass or had been told to play cautiously so didn’t play the ball forward and seemed to always take the easy backwards pass. It was simply dreadful to watch and just so dispiriting as a fan!!! Carlos is to blame for this but Bullen is not brave enough or intelligent enough to change this, so nothing will change until a new manager comes in.
The injuries are hurting us, that is definitely playing its part during this bad run but as we stand the current squad needs a huge overhaul, and some players simply need showing the door!!! Imre was generous with his ratings for a change, I would have knocked a point or two off most of his ratings!!!
