Poor that today. Worst performance of the season imo. Farke was livid with Firpos performance in particular.

We need a good number 10 to come in January if it’s possible… need a bit of magic outside the box, someone who can win a game for you when it’s not quite ticking, someone who can unlock a defence with a great ball around the edge of the area.

There`s some talk of Firpo leaving in January.
Maybe his head is elsewhere?
Hamer would have been the answer at 10 I feel.

And a proper centre forward. There are too many teams prepared to sit on the edge of their box against us because they know we can’t just throw one in there and have someone on the end of it. We need a real, consistent presence in the penalty area. Goal less in 3 of our last 4 away games now.

Yeah that away form isn’t good enough, was similar first half of last season.

Aaronson got bullied yesterday which dealt us real harm. James had a rare off day, Piroe was non existent.

If we’d got Hamer we’d have walked the league imo. He’s exactly what we need. Sharpens the focus in January these losses. We’ll bounce back but it could be going smoother
