Kouri needs hooking at half time


I thought he was out best player 1st half, though spoilt it by giving the ball away near the end

He's not actually a local lad, he's from London, you don't have to obsessively defend him when he plays poorly.

Not keen of singling out players but Green may well be competitive but he is technically weak and devoid of any real quality. We need so much more from a central midfielder and really he looks like League 2 is not his level.


Can't he just watch a few Stacy Caldicott videos - He was a similiar sort of player but improved to at least be able to play sidewards and sometimes forward passes ; in his later days he even scored a 20 yard side footer somehow.

Khouri has put in a few decent tackles but has given it away terribly in dangerous positions on a couple of occasions.

Playing into a strong swirling wind like this is always a nightmare so I'm hoping the passing will improve with the wind at our backs. The worry is that they've got a bit of pace in attack so we need to watch out for passes over the top which will hold up this half.

I don't think it has been nearly as poor as many on here seem to think so let's see how they cope with the wind in comparison.

Interesting team.

Definitely feels more positive than the last few home games.
If we can improve our passing I think this could be good. Pretty big "if" though after watching some of our attempts this season.

Really hope Khan has a good game again, really think he could be a big player next season.


Oh dear.
Gotta give Hunt a go here surely, and Orsi.

I agree with the guy who said we are worse without Kiernan, we need some pace.

Think Khouri has been a real bright spot. Some good tackles, looks quick in thought and deed, although he did give a couple of passes away.
Glennon and Khan look our best bet for a breakthrough.
Emmanuel been very disappointing

He played virtually his entire career in the second tier of English football.

I didn’t think that was that bad, we’re trying to draw them out & Barrow are sitting in.  Could do with McAtee dropping a touch deeper to get more involved & passing the ball better as that’s been very iffy!

We’re the better side to my eye though, although I’d pay a pretty penny for Max to be able to kick as well as their keeper

I agree with you, Emmanuel has been very poor by his high standard. They have had several attacks down our right and Emmanuel was saved by both Smith and Maher. His attacking seems to be awry at best.



You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time
