Hello CW 👋

RIP Brigitte Bardot

Is anyone out there still alive?

CW- whilst your point has merit, Sasu was being marked by a first-teamer that has played Internationals for Wales.

DO-at Cardiff we were playing their youth team hence we won 5-1 Sasu looked good for once as no one blocked or tackled him. In men’s football he doesn’t have that luxury, also he was once again injured

I’ve yet to see enough of Sasu to understand a) why fans don’t seem to rate him at all and b) why JJ plays him in different positions.

DO Jackson is a manager that we can afford and unfortunately has limitations.

We should have had a first half penalty BTW.

Bewildering - Sasu scores 4 at Cardiff, comes on, is put up front for just 12 mins, then moved to RWB. Also, is Stevens really only fit enough to play for 10 mins? If not, should have been given 30mins or so.

OTD - Steve Ketteridge (with Paul Denny looking on)

Laurence Matty Stevens!

which players would get the whole stadium singing today?

And Hash got the whole stadium singing.

Azeez was on fire though

I counted at least 20 seats empty near me in Block 107 yesterday. Knowing a few of the users, who are non-drivers and relying on trains to get in from distance, unsurprised to see them missing. Suspect that was duplicated across the stadium.

Hackford is better than Azeez by a country mile.

Hackford for me is the new Azeez which is not a compliment

I agree - in my mind it makes sense to have someone who can battle for the high balls and someone like Stevens who, yes whilst not known for his pace, has that ability to be in the right place or react faster than defenders when the ball falls.

We are not using Stevens for speed but his movement in the box. We are using Hackford for speed.

Stevens is not exactly quick though

Morning all. A proper SW19 report on St. Evenage now up - [Link]

Why not play all three? Bugiel to fight with the outhouse centre backs with Stevens for crosses in the box and Hackford for the ball over top? With Hackford play lower balls down the flanks for him to chase down like we had with Azeez. Three different forwards with three different strengths for different moments.

Yeah that’s the downside. If you have someone who can nip in and out of the defensive line then you need to find them with the ball and we don’t seem to have a plan to do that. If you have a big brute then they should be able to take the pressure off the defence a bit instead of the ball coming straight back. The trick with both arguments is that we’re dealing with L1 standard footballers so neither option is obviously better.

Silk, I understand your point but that means we have to stop hoofing the ball up front. Bugeil is a trier but seldom wins those high punts and rarely holds the ball up. Our defence treats the ball like a hot potato. Yes let's try some mobile forwards and see if it works but Jackson is the biggest problem with his let's not lose philosophy rather going for a win.
