South Shire Fox Posted 25 October 2025 Posted 25 October 2025 (edited) 6 minutes ago, MPH said: yes he does do this. But watch the game. He actually passes more than people realize and this in part to the fact people focus on him Falling over ( trying to get fouls) listen, I’m not saying he’s any good, but the falling over is the stick people beat him with which draws away from how often he passes. No one wants their striker to be passing. They want their striker making runs in behind and getting shots away. Theres 5 lads across the midfield that can pass Edited 25 October 2025 by South Shire Fox 1

It was Okoli’s passing and play with Hamza that was the huge let down. It’s strange that a young modern day centre back has such a poor pass. 1

Attacks die when they meet Jordan Ayew. Link up player he is not. 1000% agree. Him, along with the Jogging Donkey Soumare and Wout Garfunkel should never play in the shirt again. All 3 cause more problems to our style of play and are more of a hindrance than a help. 2

He's the luckiest guy alive. He should be 3rd or 4th choice in any decent squad. I don’t get why he can’t just try Nelson in that Doyle role. Luke has been garbage for how many games now.. baffling

Theres 5 lads across the midfield that can pass all depends on where you see your goals coming from, playing away from home against a team above you in the league, it’s likely we will need someone to play with their back to goal so we can catch them on the break and play others in. He’s not got the pace to be hitting them on the break himself. If he scores, I’d imagine it will be because he’s arriving into the space created by the wingers taking the ball to the line and passing back.

Vacamion Posted 25 October 2025 Posted 25 October 2025 The fact that this thread amounts to 3 pages at nearly 10 minutes to the kick off tells me that the selection isn't the most controversial. Either that or people have been bludgeoned into submission by recent games.
ALC Fox Posted 25 October 2025 Posted 25 October 2025 Ricky and Okoli in is a big positive. Always like that midfield. Thomas and Ayew need upgrading in Jan and I'd be broadly OK with that. Obviously agree that Aluko, Evans and Nelson need opportunities from the bench. 2

I could very easily be proven wrong, but even with our defence (even with Faes playing) we're not bad enough to ship goals. Not in this league anyway. We just lack any sort of goal threat too. Its why we keep drawing games (mostly). We're just boring and average and devoid of ideas. While our squad is dire (compared to what we've been used to the last 10 years) its been getting worse for a quite while, but should still have enough to be doing better than we seem to be.

Expect the wingers to invert more and Ayew will feed them and JJ But he doesn't link up play , he holds onto the ball too long and 'runs' down blind alleys 1
The Year Of The Fox Posted 25 October 2025 Posted 25 October 2025 Setting myself up for a fall here, but I left Milwall off my LMS because it was always possibly Martí would come up with a better starting lineup than what we’ve seen recently

grobyfox1990 Posted 25 October 2025 Posted 25 October 2025 I love let em come, best football song in the uk. Then they ruin it with hey Jude the f4ckers
DegenerateLion Posted 25 October 2025 Posted 25 October 2025 Your line up is very young!! Going to be an interesting game. Players to watch out for, for us, Mazou-Sacko (A young Kante in the making) Ballo - Looks composed and took Stoke apart last Tuesday with ease. Azeez - 3 goals in 3 games, been injured a lot since we signed him, at times unplayable. Ivanovic - Class striker, not hit his best form yet this season, but starting to show it. Our weak link - Cundle, been hit with injuries in midfield this season. I'm looking forward to seeing Monga for the first time. Heard good things about him. Should be an exciting game, we are no longer the sit behind the ball and defend side. We also no longer have a shit keeper (Benda), he has got injured and his replacement looks a lot better. 1

NJFox Posted 25 October 2025 Posted 25 October 2025 Really like the pink kit, but the sponsorship is poorly placed on the front. Looks like some iron on garbage.
