Yes you are right, but Pulis was Welsh and George Burley another Scot and Ian Holloway came from another Planet

You could just reply without the rudeness - I appreciate you have to dress up the s***e you're posting, but it's unnecessary.

Eze has 2 assists this season from 20 appearances and who knows how many set pieces - he's averaging an assist every 750 minutes, or one every 8 or so games, as supposedly our most creative player. Bear in mind he offers next to nothing out of possession on top of that. I read he gave the ball away 20+ times last night - that's just not good enough.

He's exceptionally talented, but is not remotely consistent, nearly always goes missing in big games, and does not consistently impact games anywhere close to the way Wilf used to.

Are we letting in too many goals after 75 minutes, only beat a poor Sheff Utd and not looking like winning again anytime soon.

Not rubbish, all true.

Well said.

I wonder if it's a personality/motivation issue - Wilf was clearly hyper competitive, as you say to the point it sometimes spilled over, but it did mean games rarely passed him by the way they do Eze. Even a poor Wilf would impact a game in some way - get his man booked, win corners, drag us up the pitch.

Ebs seems to lack a bit of the same fire in the belly that Wilf had in droves.

I Think yesterday showed the massive holes in our Defence. you only have to look on the cpfc squad page to see the complete lack of options - or prospects - in our defensive lineup.
CBs: Guehi/Anderson, covered by Richards, Holding and Tomkins
FBs/WBs: Munoz/Mitchell covered by Clyne and Ward

Glasners move to 5 at the back has only exasperated this situation.
Simply Not enough quality there. It's only taken 2 injuries to Guehi and Richards to a open Grand Canyon sized crack in our defence.
Ward has done a pretty decent impression of a LCB, but we may as well not have Holding, Tomkins, Clyne and Ferguson in the squad at all if Lerma gets the nod ahead of them all.

"It was a Team effort, I guess it took all players working together to lose this one"

I could not disagree more.

His Champ coaches used to refer to him as the drunken something-or-other. He evidences a complete lack of effort, almost as if he is intoxicated; but those straps around the chest that all players wear and which measure e.g. activity, evidenced the complete opposite.

He has a difference of style from Wilf, not a difference of impact.
