Fixed. Lia , MAnny and Locky have for the most part been awful this season.Any , if not all go them , could have earned a spell on the bench to wake them up a bit. One problem though is who the hell do you replace them with? Prior to Hogg signing , we had no left back option- oh wait , we did- take Locky off , Leo to LB and Lindsay to RB. HArdly an arrangement to inspire confidence. And whatever you do in midfield , sad fact is that most of our options are not of A league quality.Been able to hide that in previous seasons by an indomitable team spirit but now that seems to have gone , we are now left with a paper thin squad of players who are now no longer good enough for the A league as it develops ;worse , some of them don't appear to give a shit anymore.
I've not ever commented on Ricki previously. But there is a shelf life of some leaders in many organizations; ideas become stale , same old messages are said and inspiration dries up. CLearly there are exceptions ( Fergusson, Shanks etc) But Herbert is not one of those exceptions. His lack of reaction during the game spoke volumes- he may not know what to do anymore. it may be time to reconsider his position as well.
