For me 3 at the back doesn’t work and I think Connelly agrees the way he stormed off at the end. Get Dallison in a back 4 with Maguire at left back and go 4-4-2. The defence will then know what they’re supposed to be doing instead of the indecision we have now especially down our left side.

hopefully Connelly has a few more toys in his pram and will be replaced soon. Liability.
Given we just had 3 clean sheets with 3 at the back, not sure we’ll change.
Does sound particularly unlucky yesterday. Poleon is talented but no Tubbs finisher alas
Is it 3 at the back... strikes me as more of a fluid 5..?
As for Poleon, any self appointed fifth-form Psychologist would quickly form the opinion that he is trying that crucial bit too hard - a condition known locally as Akinde syndrome - nothing a dose of self belief will not resolve.

To be fair to Poleon, he’s playing much better and scoring more regularly than a few months ago. If he was a 15-20 goal a season player he probably wouldn’t be playing for us!
Isn’t it time for our New Year signing Ricky German to at least make the bench you never know he may just be the answer, But I fear as The manager was never involved in his signing we will not see him yet !! Hope I’m wrong.

Absolutely. If he's fit get him on the bench and maybe bring him on towards the end of the game if we need a goal see how he does.

It's a bit concerning that the club (Selim) seem to be signing players without any consultation with Cioffi. After all, if we were to get relegated, it would be the manager that gets the boot. Not the brightest way to go about things, really. GC has been working with Kewell's players so far, now he gets the chance to sign his own, Selim is taking the lead instead. At least GC seems to be involved in signing Dallison.

or maybe Gabby was told he will be the puppet and thats why we have such a risky appointment as no one else would take the terms?

Me and my three pals were all saying the same thing at the last home game, we have signed a striker, we are not blessed with options up front but he hasn’t even made the bench yet? Surely it’s worth giving some game time at some point just to see if he is any good!?

It also could be a touch of Hocktonitis.
Whilst appreciating a 2nd opinion from a learned authority of your stature.
I believe that the level of goals scored recently negates any serious risk of Hocktonitis.
In any case - although there is an early-onset variant (the curious case of Callum Willock springs to mind) - it is very rare in a player in their mid twenties.
Just watched the game on youtube and it looked like we had plenty of chances to win the game, for once it did look like Morris could have made a better fist of their goals, is it possible he's a better keeper when he has more to do?

I think the best person to sign players, as in identify targets and convince the player to join us is the manager as he is the one that has to manage them and he’s the one that ultimately will be held to account when the players fail. I don’t know why Selim seems to be so involved with recruitment, this should be the managers responsibility, Selim won’t be the one that’s held accountable when the signing don’t work out. It must be a really frustrating jobs for managers these days with all these other people poking their noses in.
