I don’t buy that they are all average/poor for this level, sorry not buying it. I will however say the balance of the squad is off a cliff and needs rectifying A.S.A.P
For instance a flat back four with denton and Barrows as full backs with boyce and Max isn’t bad, especially with fitz in goal.
a midfield 3 of Brogan, Beestin and Clunan isn’t poor at this level
A front 3 of Roberts one side, carlton the other with either whitehall or Beck through the middle isn’t bad.
The lack of balance throughout the squad doesn’t accommodate 4/4/2 formation but there are enough good players for this level to play an effective 4/3/3. The kicker is we need an experienced manager who knows what he’s doing to be able to mould them into a unit. As said above though, we’ll definitely need to sort out the squad balance as soon as can.
I guarantee you that if we had a capable manager and assistant manager in charge we’d have somewhat of a cohesive unit. It’s no coincidence we’ve had Butler and Schofield in charge and we’ve only had 3 complete performances all season, one of which was against Farsley who look absolutely terrible and will go down come the end of the season.
The squad does need work but most of this is down to Butler and Schofield who are both simply awful.
