Longlostfan Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Part of me says that although they have shown some togetherness and endeavour on occasion they regularly get beat by lower 4th tier sides. That isn't much of a platform. When I'm more optimistic I think there are a few worth keeping and with some intelligent recruitment and a capable manager we could be competitive ( in this god awful league....) BUT in all likelihood a new manager late in the close season, some of those I'd want to keep leaving in search of more than £800 and with Flat Cap recruiting........

I'll start with 2 from last year. McAleny and Rowe. And I'll add Ripley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're currently tied 3rd for the most goals against this season. It's a definite improvement on last season but then that's comparing to when we were 1st in goals conceded. As you've said, the midfield and attack (especially) leave a lot to be desired but if we want to challenge in this league, we're going to need a lot better players at the back. I don't disagree, but I think part of that is down to the midfield and attack being so lightweight that the defence is constantly under pressure. Any defence is going to struggle if the opposition are able to just stroll through the midfield. Missilou has definitely helped us improve in this regard tbf. They're not world beaters, but i think it's a more than good enough platform to build on in this division Or the one below Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
