Obafemi not in the squad because he turns up late for training?

What a great fucking signing.

No he's still recovering.

Joe Edwards explains why Michael Obafemi was missing for a second game running for Millwall - Southwark News

MICHAEL Obafemi's inability to "shake off" an illness is the reason behind his continuing absence, says Joe Edwards. The Burnley loanee has now missed games against Ipswich Town and Sheffield Wednesday due to an unspecified sickness that is keeping him sidelined. The Millwall boss said: "He's...

Last three games 36 shots no goals. Where do we look for blame. ?

The manager. Possession stats, XG bollocks and blaming bad luck and referees means nothing, the buck stops with him simple as that.

Absolutely correct. If something goes wrong in our office the manager will have to explain it. We have a habit lately of signing sicknotes.

You're the last one needed to blame Edwards for a forum full house.

JE is accountable for the consequences of players’ inabilities but not responsible for their failure to deliver on the pitch and carry out his instructions.

Considering its all about the data, whatever that means, then it seems we should be focusing on shooting practice!

He's spent half his career coaching under 8' s, he's a fish out of water. I very much doubt the players have any respect for him and he ain't got the man management experience .

This !!!!

When JE came in he did at least get us playing some decent stuff for a period of the game. Yesterday was... well not sure... hoofing diagonal balls towards Bradshaw (didn't work, never does) launching balls into the channels but we didn't have anyone that far forward. It was almost laughable, at one point we couldn't get the ball out of our half on the ground, they seemed to realise how bad we were and started pressing us. Their crowd giving the "ole" on every pass, really gets my back up.

Overheard a group of Germans discussing the game with someone, they asked why our forwards are all so short? It's a fair question, if we did actually get to the byline and put a decent cross in, who is going to get on the end of it. Our opponents had the right idea by flashing the ball into our box low and hard and got two goals.

The change of play has nearly gone full circle back to a sh#t version of how GR got us playing. Inexperience of JE is showing now.

Anyone else watch Southampton play WBA on Friday? WBA played a rigid 442 system much like the way we played under Harris, they lost.

Definitely would like a bit of presence in our forward line , but they didn't need any giants to score yesterday. Even if you do play 442,which I think suits us better , re WBA it don't guarantee you fuck all.
