@MainStandView I felt we did click today, just that final finish letting us down. Liverpool are full of quality and they took their chances. 1st goal was v disappointing but timber was there and for some reason just switched off. Keep that back 5 and we will compete with similar teams 2 us.
@BobbyManzi@chrisreidy1 All season we have conceded too many goals, but today i think is different because even in our best periods of time we could easily lose 3-1 to Liverpool or top teams.
@BobbyManzi@chrisreidy1 I have splinters from keep changing my mind on sage. I always thought we would lose today it was the manner of the performance which interested me, it’s the best I’ve seen us this season. I hope we give him the next 2 games. It’s a shame we didn’t play like this b4.
@MaxCrowe19 If we change manager now they will have the international break with half our players away, our best chance to beat Ipswich and hull imo is probably to stay with Sage. My gut feeling is his time is up.
@stu_1984 We were ok second half, Liverpool just had the quality to make it count. I thought backline did well they should be the 5 going forward, today although we lost is the first time I’ve thought sage can work. Need to back him in Jan with 1 if not 2 CBs of real quality and pace.
@cpfc_taylor That’s ok, I understand, it seems like everything is going against us atm. Scoreline makes it look bad but Liverpool had to work for that which I didn’t think they would beforehand. I can see the reason if we sack sage but I’d be tempted to keep him.
@shave_stuart Today is only the 2nd game this season I have seen us play well and had hope for future games. If this is how we are going to play I’d very much keep faith in sage. Still think we look suspect from set pieces though.
@DeePalace_ It’s the back three I think we should try to embed, it’s the most experienced and combative. Disasi gets slated, and I’m not saying it’s not warranted but given a run of games I think he will grow into it.
@Jasoncpfc Yeah, thankfully the manager won’t drop him. I don’t think he’s at the level of last year either but we are still a better team with him in it.
@LouieFrederick_ The guy is still young and inexperienced at this level, unfortunately for him we need him now and he doesn’t have the luxury of time. If us fans get on his back we just make it harder for him to perform.
@JacobStockton This team is performing at less than the sum of their parts, yes the personnel at the back aren’t as good as last year but as a team unit it’s not balanced. I’m sure the manager is doing his best, the players are trying, I don’t think it’s working and I can’t see it improving
@JacobStockton You are welcome to your views of course, but I disagree, a proven prem manager could fix our current problems. They would make us defensively solid, that may sound far fetched, but we’d fix the set pieces and we wouldn’t be so open, the players would get this drilled into them.
@aaaaaaaaaasshh I like the idea but I think it will be the same story, neither of those 2 are holding the ball up and bringing others into play, it’s just not their game. IMO I’d keep McNeil on until 60/70 mins and then go for it, if 1-0, At least McNeil will make us defensively stronger than Ed
@brucemillington@CPFC I swear I have seen their 1st goals so many times this season. Surely we must be trying to address the spare man at the back post but are failing to sort the problem out.
