The players he brought in you mean
Did he? There is a transfer committee. They make their decisions based on value to the club and he bases his on who he wants.

The defence are the same as last season and the GK coach recommended Brynn.

Forde had a half decent season in non-league. Howes had a half decent career in non-league.

We have 1 fit winger and are forced to play wing backs - not the formation he wants to play. When he does go 4 at the back, he’s forced to play strikers on the wings who both want to come inside.

We have a wage thief in the squad who is supposed to be the creative hub but he does f*** all other than eat.

Orient are exactly where everyone expected them to be come the end of the season.
Yes he did and you know it, you’re just being pedantic, so we don’t score a lot of goals last season and he brings in a plethora of midfielders when everyone knew we were crying out for forwards.i respect your views but I don’t agree.
What part of ‘transfer committee’ is your brain not understanding?

Yes.

Done it in a 50-50 shoulder to shoulder challenge. Won the ball but went down after and couldn’t run it off.

Wellens has gone back to his ideal football taking Piggot off, he was the foil for the others, I know he isn't massively liked on here but he creates spaces for others, six foot bloke off for a small winger/striker In Ayegi, Wellens just can't help himself, he is so stuck in his footballing ideology and won't budge and be dynamic

IMO, He should have been on after 60-65 mins, not with just 18 left to play

What are you wittering on about?

Agyei for Piggot is a complete change in ideology.

Exactly! What was on the pitch was working but Wellens seems uncomfortable with having a big bloke up top and has now gone back to his pure football.

Amazing what happens when ruel is not in the middle miscontrolling every ball or tripping over his own feet. He scores the odd goal but our play breaks down too often when he is on the pitch.

Sorry, but I feel you’re in the vast minority in your admiration of Pigott.

It's not admiration of Piggot as such it's the balance he brings or a player of that ilk, there are lots of talented players but you need something to tie it together

The odd pass here and there isn't anywhere near good enough for the supposed first choice striker who's there to score goals
