Absolute dog toffee

Bloody awful. We obviously have no strength in depth. Tav, Wing, Wood were all awful

When Paddy and then Howson came on their quality showed, but not enough to make bugga all difference.

No sht Sherlock but we need a couple of experienced Championship players to shore up the holes we have. That was just so meh
 
Dog toffee. Appropriate sImile on the basis that its too much to chew on? Or unpalatable? Or you broke your teeth watching it?
 
At least half a dozen new signings or it's bottom half. Warnock ain't a magician.

At least half a dozen?!?! No chance.

As for the bottom half, I don’t think we’ve seen anywhere near enough to throw the towel in yet, we lost a narrow 1-0 to a team that have just spent the last few seasons in the prem and then lost again today when playing several “subs”.

Thing is, Barnsley also played lots of subs.... they battered us, Wing should just give up, utter garbage.
 
I’m willing to accept that this was just the cup, and wouldn’t be surprised if Warnock wanted us out ahead of a game down at Chelsea.

But I couldn’t believe how outplayed we were by Barnsley. I’m jealous of their pressing game and ability to string a few passes together.

Well if you want a competitive squad, then that's what we need. Warnock said himself that the squad needs overhauling. And I ain't throwing any towel in but I'm not stupid. That squad is unbalanced, has no width, no pace, no guile and has only two strikers. I guess being played off the park by Barnsley doesn't trouble you like it troubles me then...
 
Terrible.

Bettinelli - 5 - done with the eyes for the first goal, poor positioning for second
Dijksteel - 7 - Competed well
Wood - 6 - bit sloppy on the ball, but did ok
Fry - 6 - steady enough
Coulson - 4 - poor, but out of position
Bola - 2 - very poor, doesn't drive forward with the ball, takes the easy option
Morsy - 6 - steady
Wing - 4 - poor player
Tav - 4 - bad day at the office
Browne - 6.5 - put himself about, passed it around won headers, ran at people
Fletcher - 5 - put in a bit of effort but lacked support or confidence
Howson - 6
McNair - 7
Folarin - 5
 
It was obvious how every Barnsley passed to a team mate it stuck and they shielded the ball and turned with control and composure to then pass it again....we seem panicky, hurried, ball like a hot potato and too many loose passes. Think we need to train more on keeping the ball better for sure. I also thought warnock left a mainly young team out to dry, he should have had few more experienced players to help them, this showed when mc nair was introduced at the back. The defence was better I thought after that.

Yeah of course. It’s 1 game of football. Anything can happen, Their manager has been there about a year or so, their players will be in tune as to what the manager wants.

We’ve been beaten of a team who finished quite close to us last season. It’s not like we’ve had a spanking off Harrogate.

But ultimately it was a one off game of football. “Shock” results happen all the time.

I think Heam's got his head in the clouds.

We’ve played 3 games mate. Lost one game (0-1 to a team just relegated from the prem) and our subs got beat of a another team (from the same league) subs.

And your talking bout 6+ signings or it’s bottom half.

So do you genuinely think that if we only signed 4/5 players we couldn’t finish in the top half / top 8 / playoffs etc.

Maybe you’re right and time will tell but if my head is in the clouds yours must be in the oven

What's so difficult to understand?!! Warnock himself said that squad needed overhauling! We lost to Barnsley at home and we conceded three to Shrewsbury!

No chance. Four or five players to a squad like this... wouldn't even dent it.

I think your head's up your jaxi or maybe you just don't want to see what's in front of your eyes. There's none so blind as those who will not see...

Four or five added to the three we’ve already signed. I’d say that was an overhauling.

Thankfully we scored four past Shrewsbury,
