Lost [ Tue 21st Jan ] v Coventry Sphinx, KO 7:45pm NPLD1M HOME

[The pressman]

Have to agree with a lot of what has been said.

Until the 3 subs came on, I could only pick out Adegbola as a positive last night, he is definitely a step 3 player with potential.

We need a new left back and quickly! Hopefully one of the MK lads can play there. The 2 goals conceded were both embarrassing and farcical. Tejan was clearly at fault for the second goal but really Heath should have taken control of the situation.

The midfield worked hard but with no plan B. But why oh why Corden doesn't start is absolutely beyond not just me but a lot of other fans as well!

Up front Adams works hard but agreed that we need a new penalty taker. Ethan was anonymous while Taylor continuingly looks a danger but the chooses the wrong option in the final third.

The simple facts are now that it's 7 defeats in 10 games without a win and only 4 goals scored in 8 games. I still don't see us ending up in a relegation fight, and we are only losing by the odd goal, BUT surely we should be beating the likes of Coventry Sphinx?

A free hit on Saturday? Yes! Quorn have won their last 13 away games. However, with some interesting games coming up against lower opposition, if we are still without a win at the end of February then we could be looking over our shoulders!

Should've won that no doubt, and seems our attack is to blame for not. Jamal not providing a lot and I make that his 4th penalty miss of the season? Not good enough. Can't fathom why EJ isnt starting, has always looked sharp, stretches defences more and can challenge for the ball even better than Jamal. Get Calvin off set pieces too, seems knackered taking so many and Callam's corners have looked bang on.

Negatives aside that Adegbola was brilliant, well deserved MOTM. Always in the right place at the right time and limitless energy, looking forward to seeing more. Charlie Green though, what a player! Continues to be Player of the Season for me, and fantastic choice for a captain for this game.

Get EJ up top even if just to give Jamal some motvation and hunger, Cairo and that Guzynski, who looked bright today, outwide and we might stand a chance.

EJ did start yesterday, and was completely anonymous before being taken off mid way through the second half. Sums it up that you didn't realise he started.

I think the criticism of Jamal is a bit harsh too; he battles away doing all the ugly stuff with very little service or support - agree that I wouldn't have him anywhere near a penalty ever again though.

Meant starting up top, agree he was anonymous yesterday but what do you expect playing him out of position again. He's either played as a winger or a 10 for most of the season and that doesn't play to his strengths. Give him a good run up top and if he doesn't cut it fair enough but just don't think he's been given enough of a chance there, I remember he started there when Jamal was away and he looked immense.

Agree to disagree over Jamal, in my eyes he cuts promising plays short by holding it up and doesn't do it well enough, but can see might be a tactical thing.

Ref was abysmal I'll give you that, even the lino said he didn't agree with a lot of his decision!

Same as at Sutton Coldfield, we were the better team over 90 minutes but, poor goals given away and chances not taken. Not a good combination.
