You can tell every time he gets the ball he just has no clue what to do. Combine that with lack of technical ability and it’s uglyWhat the fuck is Royal doing. Can’t pass the ball 5 yards
If you look at our past games, Hojberg didn't have to run the while pitch every single time. He'd share the responsibility. Now he is having to cover for Romero because Romero is babysitting both Emerson and Reggie. Having a CB work that hard always puts pressure on your CDM. And look when he has the ball. Both wingback start running as if they in the races. They not reading the game at all. The hole is developing in our middle because our wide players are both out of the game.
Emerson has been absolutely crap, I’ve said it so many times but he cannot play football at this level. He makes the basics look so difficult, he can’t even run with the ball or pass sideways with any accuracy. Isn’t brave enough to get forward and put himself about like Doherty either.
Please god let Doherty’s knee be alright, if we have to play with Emerson for the rest of the season we are going to be in difficulty.
