Regarding the desire, is like there’s a complacency for me. We only played v PNE

When 2. - 1 down, the same last night, albeit for 10 - 15mins and presumably after a bollocking. That must be because of the culture Smith has created. How you change that? I guess in in the short term by changing the team. Sarge or Pukki have to start up front in the current formation, not square pegging Sarge of the left. Sara and Hayden have to start or more Gibbs and Nunez need to be dropped. Bryan needs to be dropped too and Kenny plays at LB. In fairness to Smith, he made a big call dropping Krul and with his half time changes, but he has work out his strongest team and go with that from the word go.

  - Out of interest, which players from our midfield / attack would get in the Watford side? (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Oct 16, 10:33:21
    - I thought Watford were very average apart from Sarr and their physical threat (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 16, 12:47:32

        Unfair to lump Sargent in with those other two. He is certainly athletic and has grown in (NCFC) - The Gaffer, Oct 16, 12:00:47

  - I wonder if it comes from there being no settled team, no settled style and, as you say, (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, Oct 16, 09:33:32
    - They look like they are playing a new style or formation every game (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 16, 10:13:00

        He maybe has to bite the bullet and play Sargent or Pukki or play (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 16, 11:01:04
        
        I can’t see the wood from the trees with it any more Jim (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Oct 16, 11:05:31
        
        Also if you want to play 4-3-3 why send Rashica out on loan? I can’t think (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 16, 11:04:26
        
        Or Tzolis to be fair (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Oct 16, 11:06:29
        
        I’ve never seen a player play as badly as he did when he came on last night (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 16, 11:18:30
      - That's what I think. It can't help. I know the talk has been, wait for Hayden to get fit (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, Oct 16, 10:38:06
        
        I’m not sure coaching can fix the square pegs / rounds holes issue on its own (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Oct 16, 10:43:45
