Cambridge United (A) - Sat 6th March, 3pm

Exeter thumping Orient 4-0 after 56 minutes so makes our point look a good one.

Again, hope I’m wrong - but that side doesn’t inspire confidence.

There won’t be many teams in this division that would have Wright and MacDonald on the bench.

There is no outlet or pace to counter attack in that team whatsoever.

So any real talent we have is on the bench, what is the point? Genuinely it’s soul destroying!

I’ve seen enough to be honest. The constant changing of formation (will it happen at half time again?!), and having 7 shots in 5 games tells me all I need to know.

Hope I’m wrong, but it’s very negative.

Remember too, we were sort of sold in interviews with Leigh and BD that somehow we were transforming into an expansive passing game.

Apart from one half of football in his tenure, all I’ve seen is hoof ball and players not knowing what’s going on.

Is Norman playing as a defensive midfielder again just in front of the back 4?

I’d take a point NOW… UTS

To be fair I thought Wright looked tired on Tuesday.He is only a young lad and needs bringing on slowly but Osedebe!!! That I don’t understand. Good to see Perry being given a game.

Tired? Each to your own but for me he needs games.

It more like expansive by passing midfield (which we don’t seem to have)

The best 3 players on Tuesday were Sadler, Wright, and Sinclair…so he benches two of them including the only one that hinted at being an attacking threat.
Unblelievable.
He’s another one that talks the talk. Identitity?? :crazy_face:

He’s 19 bloody years old no way should he be tired I use to go out at 9 o’clock in the morning and play football for 10 hours a day with my mates and be back at it the day after in my teens.I really do feel like they are wrapped in cotton wool these days if he’s fit play him simple as that.

Tombola has been working overtime on team selection. It’s just been wheeled back into the dressing room, so we can choose the formation.

Needs to be stored safely as will be needed again at half time.

Every game is a ā€œprojectā€ folks.

Yes why would he be tired?!

And didn’t Ragnar have a good game on Tuesday, so lets leave him out too!
This side has no forward thinking whatsoever, it’s another 9-0-1 formation again, thank god none of us have to witness this shambles live, this is Cambridge, not Barcelona, they lost at home to Scunny on Tuesday!!!

Just the five changes from Tuesday then…with no creative outlet or pace.

It was five changes last Saturday too. I do like a settled side!!!

BTW - Only the usual four changes for the Port Vale Tinkerman today - he’s losing his touch. Dutton’s stolen a march on him.

Whoever makes the least number of changes buys the Saturday night takeaway back at Chez Clarke.

What is said ā€œa settled side with a clear identityā€

Brilliant! Are we getting sarcastic about Clarke’s double or what?
Sooner he joins him in June the better, lets get a proper manager in, up to you Pomlett, you know it makes sense.
