Heaton Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Breen has had his time injured so perhaps stalled his progress. Like many young players, they may look promising but they may have actually peaked at that point and get no better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Breen, along with many others in the squad, needs to be moved on as soon as is possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Not pouring scorn on the medical department or training methods but the amount of players on our books who have constantly picked up injuries is a shambles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 If it was a one off, freak season you could just write it off, but it's not stopped and has spilled in to this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got it down as signing soft, injury-prone, aging players rather than anything to do with training methods. Kane is increasingly fitting the mould and we'll need to see how Wotherspoon holds up (he's was removed very early on Saturday I thought which I took to mean that they want to be very careful). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Just looking at the current squad, excluding the kids that haven't featured much - Mehmet - Injured last season for a decent spell. Comrie - Injured last season, requiring surgery and is no stranger to the treatment table. Ngwenya - n/a Bene - One solid season, one season where he was riddled by multiple injuries which looks to have impacted his overall fitness and ability. Hammy - picked up multiple injuries last season but doesn't miss much football. Otoo - Surgery in the summer. KRH - Was completely riddled last season with multiple injuries Chalmers - never injured. Wighton - knee's like a 70 year old basketball player. Todd - he's at the hospital that much he's got a blue light discount card (love him though). McCann - Fairly large injury spells over the last two seasons Breen - INJURED ALL THE TIME Fisher - Missed chunks of last season due to multiple injuries. Wotherspoon - n/a Kane - seems to be made of crackers MOH - could be injured, you'd have to ask him... Andy Tod Jnr - missed nearly all of last season Get these jabronis on full fat milk for starters, what is wrong with their bones... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Pretty sure all the loan players got injured too, possibly except Sharpe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubbychops Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 5 hours ago, Stellaboz said: Unpopular opinion here perhaps, but I've never rated Breen. League 1 player at best. I agree. Never impressed me. He has been caught out a few times like Livi's goal on Saturday but not necessarily ending with a goal. He scored a few goals in our League 1 season. Think that masked a lot of his deficiencies in defending. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Not a word I particularly use or am familiar with myself although it is often used on the Terrace and online, so the context is usually easily decoded. On Breen, I'm not convinced either. Thought he looked decent but not spectacular when on loan at QotS(?) and so wasn't exactly doing cartwheels when he signed but he did OK. Think Fisher looks the better of the two but he's liable to the odd brain fart (like stepping out for too much for the Livi goal) and needs talked through the game a bit much for someone who's going to go to the top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paralytic Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 We have a great captain in Bene but after his injury last season it looks like he’s slowing up a bit. With a back 4 and opposition put a ball through he hasn’t got the pace now against a fast striker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 It would help if he had confidence in the keeper behind him to mop up any stray through balls. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home Truths Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 (edited) 7 minutes ago, Stellaboz said: It would help if he had confidence in the keeper behind him to mop up any stray through balls. It all starts from there. Are they even trying to find another? I'm thinking one who isn't 19. Unless another goalie comes in, we will be pointing to numerous calamities all season that have cost us with this guy, game in game out. A steady keeper would be awfy nice.

I said that the manager obviously doesn’t think they’re good enough to even be willing to try it. I’ve been crying out for a back 4, but surely the only reason we haven’t done so, is the manager doesn’t think they’re capable of it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well over Par Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 (edited) On bene If we had a good keeper then the defence could hold a higher line and the keeper could be a proper sweeper keeper, starting position well outside the box. mehmet is shite with the ball at his feet and won’t come out to take balls on the 6 yard line so that’s the end of that ? will end up playing deeper meaning too much spaces between the lines for opponents to exploit Edited July 24 by Well over Par 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Got lost yesterday for obvious reasons but it was announced that Todd will be out for three months (at least). https://dafc.co.uk/james-mcpake-offers-support-as-matty-todd-faces-another-rehab/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
