Title: Swindon v MK MotM Thread
Post by: Nemo on Saturday, February 17, 2024, 16:56:18
89 minutes I would like to forget and 6 and a half entertaining ones. Not many candidates today.

Jake Cain for not being on the pitch long enough to be a shit as the others.

Tempted to vote for Bycroft just for the attempted overhead kick, but he wasn't actually very good. McCarthy blotted his copybook for the first time, FBT and Kokolo also culpable. Almost everyone else anonymous at best until the end, midfield offered nothing, and we saw the other side of McKirdy who could easily have walked for pointless dissent alone.

Think I might go UGM, the one defender that didn't actively cost us a goal and put in a few crosses. But it really is picking the 6/10 in a sea of 4s.

I cant call it, all pretty much equally shit, maybe Austin for scoring a goal and getting angry and actually giving a shit.

We are back into the 'noone' arena. Really couldn't pick anyone from that performance.

Was going to go for McGurk but he was pulled off way too early. Still think the change should have been Austin for Drinnan.

Yes, McGurk doesn't have as much physical prowess...but I didn't see an awful lot from Drinnan either. That's moot though, as McGurk's footballing brain, technical ability and movement are far and above than any physical presence that Drinnan could offer.

Obviously Austin scored so the rosey-tints will say it was a good change. Yes Austin coming on was possibly correct but the issue was it was the wrong player replaced. The Elbouzedi{?} sub definitely just seemed like it was for the sake of it.

I have to go for Cain out of pure spoiling the vote unfortunately. Very much meh  ::)

Very little quality anywhere, but UGM kept driving us forward. Vote for effort.

Whole defence was dogshit. That Dokes is winning this has confused the fuck out of me.

Elbouzedi for me, only fucker that did his job consistently (maybe Austin too) even if it was a cameo.

Utter wank all round.

Stats brain thinks everyone had a stinker bar Austin and UGM, which mostly reflects the poll.

On UGM, not sure he had much to do with our worst defensive fuck ups and he was our main attacking outlet. Not a great performance but head and shoulders above anyone else in the starting XI.

Elbezoudi & Austin gave us some sort of an outlet when they came on, apart from that your clutching at straws for MOTM tbh

UGM. Who ran around a bit.

Would like to see Elbouzedi start next week.
