Looks like we have our designated scapegoat for the year.


Not good to have goalie as scapegoat.

I am a traditionalist.  Designated Scapegoat has to be a DM otherwise the world order breaks down.

It's the same thing really. Opposition scores a goal and instead of the DM being too slow, not being in the right position, giving away posession etc. It'll be blamed on Marinovic not commanding his area, being too static on his line, not being solid dealing with high balls etc. We don't score enough goals and it'll still be his fault for poor distribution, no ability as a sweeper keeper to start attacks from deep etc.

These are all actual criticisms of Marinovic that have already been mentioned on this forum, long before the season even starts. Scapegoat.
