What happened to

I fear this will be a brutal watch and don’t know how we get up the pitch.

Two full backs who can’t get up the pitch , four centre midfielders and a one paced Dwight McNeill.

 

[Rook]

Their CM will take ours to the cleaners....

this team needs a bath

 

[HappyJack]

Same slow team, no pace.

 

[PhilM]

Hes picked 4 central midfielders and 1 wide player. Theres no way this can be a balanced side. He could try playing players where they are comfortable. Or considering he says he likes using 2 strikers, he could give that a go.

I agree. My point was that apart from bringing Danjuma in, there isn't much more he can do to find that balance and it hasn't really worked as of late.

I'm not defending him by the way, but rather highlighting that the tactics (stay narrow, hoof and do not much else) is probably the more serious problem.

Beto that’s awful

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Never paid enough attention to Brentford but can say without doubt - their ground is pants

 

[the golden visionary]

One pass

 

[johnjoeefc]

What a pathetic start. Beto can't control it. Young booked. What a way to start an away match

 

[ForeverEverton]

Running straight through the middle of our team..... wow

Young will be sent off......
