It looks like Gerrard has wasted a fair chunk of our funds on the likes of Grezda, Davis and Worrall.

 

Questions will have to be asked if he can't rectify his errors in the Summer.  

Davis and Worrall are only loanees, albeit on big wages. We can get rid in the summer. Grezda looks like a gamble that will not pay off.

We spent the money we got for Bates on Worrall. Worrall is no footballer and today slowed everything down but the real problem was the midfield. It was also obvious Defoe and Candeias are not going to win high balls constantly pumped at them. Today would have been better with a 4-4-2 but we have to assume Lafferty was doubtful and perhaps played with an injury.  Only Lafferty and Kent get pass marks because they at least tried to take responsibility. In truth that was fairly easy for St J.

Davis and Defoe have been very disappointing so far.

Exactly why we shouldn’t be signing players in their mid-thirties

I only seen the second half but Kamara was the best player on the park imo.

A very good debut indeed. Possibly the only plus point today.

Grezda has had injuries.

Worall is a loanee who’s done ok. He’ll return to Forest at the end of the season.

Davis is now past it.

[Gonzo79 15,294]

Gerrard didn't look keen on Grezda when he was fit.

 

I have no idea why we're playing Worrall ahead of Katic.

 

Davis looks well past it.

[Whosthedado 1,685]

So many negatives today. We could still be playing there now and we wouldn't have scored. Davis is well passed his best and Barasic was dreadful. Summed up with the cross near the end.

 

My Dad turned to me after ten minutes and said "we aren't scoring today...."

 

We are a shadow of our normal team without Morelos and look bang average. The lack of creativity is frightening. 

 

We better start looking over our shoulder again for 2nd because the Title is gone again

There will be no big clearcut of players. Incremental additions/replacements only.

 A lot of them are on loan, so will, or ought to, disappear viz,, Worral, Koulibaly, Davis, Kent, Defoe. 

After them,Lafferty. Then look at Arfield; possibly Katic who seems to be out of favour; then there is Wallace, of course. 

That is quite a turnover.

I don't really understand why everyone thought Davis would be a saviour. He was regularly the invisible man the first time around and he is now 6 years older.

Absolutely.
