Questions I think need asking

What have players like Ayling, Greenwood, Barlaser done to justify being in recent teams?

Given the very poor performances why ar we not looking at the u21s for some players? Just rotating the same players isn't working.

Why not stick to the tight formation used against Villa and Chelsea at home which restricted the opposition. Stopping goals conceded is the start point for getting back on our feet.

What's going on with Dieng? Surely he has to be in the team.

Who do you play instead? - Dijksteel, Hoppe and Gilbert?

We don't have any U21s able to make the step up - we're loaning them out to league two.

Without Jones we don't have any wingbacks. Ayling can't play there. Thomas can't play there - it's the reason he wasn't playing for Leicester or Sheff Utd.

Can't answer this one haha

They pretty much play as wing backs now in a back 4. If Carrick is adamant he's going to push them forward as much as he continues to do. He would be better sticking a 3rd CB.
Otherwise he's needs to stop committing them so far forward,

I do agree by the way, well at least with Ayling. He's not a wing back. Haven't seen enough of Thomas to say either way.

I agree that they do play further forward, but it's been said in a few different interviews that Thomas is a fullback, not a wingback.
He's one of the most valuable players in the league (valued at £10m), but he wasn't suited to Leicesters system, and wasn't suited to Sheff Utds system... which is why he was recalled/sent back, and then loaned to us.
 
What have players like

Ayling - no other right back fit?

Greenwood - one of our only fit strikers?

Barlaser done to justify being in recent teams? one of our fitter midfielders,, maybe

We're missing that Isiah Jones type of player to play wing back.. Ayling cannot manage it.

coming back from injury
 
Why have we had half of our squad injured?

Why can we not make an extra £500k from extra ticket sales, merch & food and drink?

How much are we paying Paddy McNair to sit on the bench?

Has there been any interest in Dan Barlaser from the MLS?

Is the club shop and the concourse more of a hinderance to the club?
 
We have a poor squad - beyond the first 11 we dont have a lot of strength in depth - injuries have proven that this season.

Barlaser only plays when Hackney or Howson dont

Greenwood only plays when McGree/Coburn/Lath dont

Glover shouldnt play again
