Not entirely sure about that..
I saw a non league player (Nemane now a Division 4 player) pluck the ball out of the sky and show superior ball control to most of our squad.. being in Division 3 isn't a good excuse for being pure shite or not being capable of basic Ball control in my opinion.
I don't expect the ball to stick to their feet like Messi but it shouldn't be hitting random parts of their legs and pinging off any direction that's just garbage.
I don't believe players are only able to learn ball control or passing at an Academy level either.
With enough training and the right coaching a player can be taught to improve most aspects of their game at any stage in their career.
Something else is deeply wrong here as I haven't seen the other teams in the top 6 struggle with these same basics in the manner we do.
Plymouths and Ipswich's transitional play up the pitch and their finishing in front of goal is more efficient than ours.
I'd even say the same for the likes of Barnsley and Bolton.
It's fair to say one of our problems is poor quality coaching.
Bannan as our only outlet has been an issue for yrs now. If he doesn't play well the team usually doesn't. I agree he isn't a big enough presence as Captain. He doesn't seem able to affect the players attitudes on the pitch. He definitely needs another strong character in midfield with him.
There's just too many spineless chickens in the team that go missing or don't even show up.
Has Moore ever tried anything different to see if it better suits the players capabilities? or does he force incapable players to bend to his methodology?
Sticking with Moore also means it's highly unlikely any youngsters will be brought in as he clearly prefers older players. So it's likely more Championship cast offs will be brought in for one last pay day and again the cycle repeats.
Friday morning is the big one. We'll still be in Division 3 but will Moore get his P45?
I think Chansiri is going to bottle it and prove me right about the Club's lack of ambition.
Then he'll be complaining about season ticket sales, surprised that peasants in a recession don't want to pay £700 for another season of the ugliest football you've ever seen.
