Ok, After having viewed that pathetic effort and having a shark sleep afterwards as a result. I have had the whole day to stew on this.
I think these academy players whom have been in the squad for the last 2 seasons have not shown improvement or learned from any mistakes from the past. I'd consider starting Hughes up front considering his prowness in front of the wrong goal. What's that 4 OG's in a year??
These academy players may need to be dropped to the reserves to get back some confidence and learn to appreciate the opportunity that they have been given rather than taking it for granted.
Last night the only one whom seemed interested was Loke at RB. And sad to say, but our two Japanese imports showed nothing other than that they are far too lightweight and can get bossed off the ball.
Supyk for me is like Version 2 of OHV. Does a couple of tricks if he is lucky but with no end product. A good striker will hit from any range and any half chance, not try and walk the ball in. His lack of even attempting a shot is a big concern if he really wants to progress and establish himself. I mean OVH has not set the world alight in Ireland has he??
There's a CB, a Left sided player and another forward coming. I hope it is sooner than later. Rufer is back. Phew. Can't wait for Piper to be back too.
Again, these Academy players have been in the squad long enough now to start showing up, otherwise move them on. We can't keep "hoping" that they will really come up to the required standard. Yes, the pressure in on them, they have been given the chances. Whether they use them is now questionable. Do they really want to succeed?
