THE CONCRETE ROUNDABOUT (TCR)

We should have re-signed Jamie Cumming before signing Tucker, at least that way he could have warned us.

I don't actually think he's terrible at the defensive side (e.g. blocking shots, defensive headers). What he is terrible at is build-up play, pushing forward, passing out from the back etc. The stuff Darling excelled at. He just doesn't seem to fit into how we want to play. If the "data" is behind this signing then it's either way off or Tucker is really underperforming.

Some dodgy formulas on an excel sheet I recon.

Atrocious last night.
Ghastly.

Really didn't think he was that bad. Oyegoke, Johnson and Smith were worse.

He’s a dreadful footballer, he’ll get two relegations in two years on his cv

Even when he receives simple passes his body shape and touch is so bad he almost fucks it up. Three times today he has put himself under pressure my receiving a pass so badly. Really disappointing signing so far, hopefully it comes good.

Gives the ball away this time and we almost get caught out.

I think a lot of it is confidence. He looks shit scared of the ball. Manning seems to want to persevere with him and hopefully come out the better side, but I think he needs some time out of the team.

Who replaces him is a mystery.

He's all over the place. Unfortunately a key position and a big bottleneck at the moment in the side.

If we are serious about staying up, he cannot continue to be in the starting XI. Lewington being injured and Oyegone returning doesn't help of course!
