Sly Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 The new season starts shortly. Lets not hide behind the fact we’ve been poor since December. We can’t carry on like we’ve finished. What changes now?

Fox92 Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 Midfield not good enough for me, including wide options.

What changes now? Not really the right time to talk about it. 2 minutes after a disappointing end to the season all you’ll get it’s a whole load of overreaction. Wait a week or two and then we can start to look back on a great season and think about changes.
sdb Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 Get the squad fitter, make them mentally and physically tougher, regain a bit of discipline and add a class winger and centre back.
cv6 fox Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 New keeper for a starter. He's a great shot stopper but this decision making and ball distribution are costing us.
Frost Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 We all know how important form can be going into a new season. Serious questions need to be asked.

Foxin_Mad Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 Need more creativity and someone who can shoot, someone who can take a set piece, someone who can defend. Other than that great.
Sir Shep Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 Is Congleton really that bad? I mean we need some really really really good players without selling our better players. I’m scared!
Mark Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 7 minutes ago, Sly said: What changes now? Rodgers needs to have a look at himself as his tactics have failed since January and it’s realistic to fear it carrying on into next season. We need a long term centre back to partner Soyuncu, I hope we don’t persist with three at the back. Replace Albrighton Gray and Iheanacho with genuine quality. Also time to look for a successor to Vardy, one that is going to play he can’t play every match at a high level anymore.

If BR is serious about making us a team that is comfortable on the ball we do need a keeper that is better on the ball but kasper is a big player in this team would take a big manager to make that decision a bit like when pep got rid of Joe Hart
Babylon Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 The managers mentality, didn’t realise he was so negative. He’s negative attitude has slowing manifested Into the players. Didn’t even bother watching today, I could probably summarise how we played without doing so. Lots of huffing and puffing and passing around at the back. Negative setup, scared to have a go, late subs. It’s every single game!!
Fox92 Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 Need a holding midfielder that can actually do something other than tackle too.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 Perfectly happy with our starting 11. But Bennett proves we need better back-up.

I knew he was a snake oil salesman type but I really thought he'd be a demanding manager, kicking and screaming for us to be in the top four. Seems like he's settled for 5th from a while back. We won't sack him though so we have to hope he turns it around.

By all accounts Babylon, Inthought for the large part we were the better team. That was actually a much better performance than we’ve seen. However we lacked end product and fell apart once they’d scored.

Used to rely on you to talk sense, but to say that you didn't watch the game because you have the psychic power of pessimism is frankly pretentious.

Finnaldo Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 Brendan really needs to look at his tactics, his lack of Plan B is concerning. Realistically, at least £150m needs spending on the squad. We shouldn’t be find many if any of the current bench there next year because the quality simply isn’t there. Gray, Mendy & James should be the first out. Brendan also needs to get the squad together a find some resilience and spirit. We’re criminally lacking in that right now.
NaijaFox Posted 26 July 2020 Posted 26 July 2020 We have an EXCELLENT core to build upon - if we don’t lose any key players. Thus no need to make any drastic changes, just 1 or 2 players capable of starting and build QUALITY depth. Too many times this season, substitutions did not improve the quality of play on the field, create or take more goal scoring chances nor even comfortably see out a lead.
