If I'd have gone and picked eleven random 20 something year olds on my way to Molineux today and told them they were going to play Cardiff instead of the so called professionals that actually took to the pitch I doubt they could have done much worse! And that's without giving them positions to fill or tactics to play! Shambolic, shapeless and clueless doesn't adequately cover it!
This was an absolute mess, throughout the side. We never got the tempo up to start with, we were lacking numbers in attack- not that it mattered much with the quality of supply anyway. Jordan Graham was a frustration for me today, he consistently beat his man first time round only to turn back to do it again so he could get the ball on his right foot instead of putting it across with his left at the earliest opportunity. The midfield was lacking teeth and made worse with KMac 's distribution being uncharacteristically rushed and poor. Then there was the defe.......forget that....4 players who looked like they'd never played together before, backing off and inviting the long range efforts that beat a keeper I'm seriously beginning to question. Milk turns quicker than Danny Batth, an awful defender and even wrse captain! If that doesn't sound bad enough then there was one basic skill that Ebanks-Landell couldn't master that pissed me off more than anything else, and it cost us at least one goal. I could perhaps forgive one mistimed jump to head and clear the ball away. if it happened twice I might be able to be persuaded that was just a coincidence and bad luck but three times and more is a major worry!
Some might have seen the whole thing differently from me of course but as far as I'm concerned there were no positives at all to take out of this match. It was fkng cold to boot!!!
