...because yu are criticising RE now so you should base your views on the present. The balls coming forward and the few that come in to the box are poor and have been for weeks.

That is your oppinion on the matter, I don't think the balls are as poor as you are making them sound.

...and that is your opinion. See them from the strikers viewpoint and I can assure you the service is rotten. I would agree that when the 1 in 100 good ball does come in we miss the target but that is not all down to Roy either.

No, fair enough, it's not all down to Roy, but when he does get a good ball, he could try a little bit harder to put it in the right place don't you think?

Clearly we're not all going to agree on this, but it seems perfectly reasonable to me to apportion some of the blame on both the midfield AND Roy. Not only are our set pieces frequently poor and our crossing not much better, but also Roy's lack of goals for so long must mean something is amiss. After all, him having the most attempts on goal for us could also be read as an inability to put away chances. But, of course, this is open to interpretation either way.

Unbelievable! Our going forward play & final ball are probably the worst aspects of our game at the moment.How many times do we win the ball only to lose it within 3 passes in an attempt to get into an attacking position. We are lucky to get 3 decent crosses these days. The whole team are currently playing poorly & Roy , if at present out of sorts, is far from our laziest player. Stop searching for scape-goats!!!
