South Shire Fox

Offered the highest wages

My issue as well. Very samey players on the bench with a complete lack of pace. Needs to be addressed in January

Years away 😂. Looked good enough to play in the Prem at 15 and was probably our best player at the start of last season. Hes 17 years old and been sent to live miles away from his friends and family. No doubt whatsoever he will be recalled and loaned out to another club in the coming years where he will be successful

Feels like hes been a lot more direct in his play on the right. Sometimes on the left it feels like he beats his man, turns back then tries beating him again before putting a cross in

Looks a much better player on the right hand side imo.

Top player at this level. First leader weve had at CM in years

Couldnt play any worse tbf. Okoli was the one who surprised me. Actually looked like a defender for the first time in 3 years

Probably the worst team we’ve played against this season but we still had to get the job done. The new more direct passing approach is paying off instead of trying to bore the opposition to death. Hopefully Martin has finally accepted that it doesnt work and will carry on in this fashion. Lundstrum is class at this level and having a proper leader at CM is vital. Okoli, Alves, Thomas and Braybrooke all played well. Would still like to see some variety on players on the bench as Chaplin and Cullen are quite similar in style. Need some pace coming in in Jan

You just know they are going to struggle in this. Be Bromleys cup final

Need to build some momentum so lets change a fair portion of the side?

You have to have pace to play as a wing back so he definitely isnt suited for that.

Dont over complicate things and a team full of players who have played at a higher level will beat a shite League one side.. who’d of thought? Football Is a simple game, over complicated by people like Martin who care more about style then results. Alves motm for me. The complete lack of pace in the side is a big concern though. Two new fast full backs needed in January. Especially on the left side if Mcfarlanes a cripple. Probably a new winger as well

I agree 100%. But he is still rash and needs an education in how to defend. Preferably on loan

Sent off on his debut, lucky not to be sent off against Barnsley. Hes definetley rash and inexperienced. A year out on loan playing RB will help his development like Joseph. Doesnt matter what the tactics were, that attempted block for the first goal was pathetic

Blackburn. Probably only comparison as ex Prem Champions playing in the third tier. Birmingham arent a big club so certainly isnt them
