Kirk cross forward to Leaburn but doesn't quite reach him, and then we conceded a free kick in the centre circle. Barnsley try to take it quickly but ref not happy so they take it again,
If this finishes 3 or 4 to Barnsley Garner will be sacked.
Then the owner is an idiot.
He hasnt supported the manager in the transfer market. You cant play tikka takka with players who cant score. We genuinely only have a couple of players who you could say were goal scorers. The rest couldn't score in a brothel.
I wouldn’t sack Garner, I don’t massively blame him for what’s going on currently. I’m not sure Klopp or Pep could get a tune from this team. The “fourth highest budget in the league” stuff from Sandgaard is either a lie or an admission that he doesn’t know how to spend his money.
Short of getting on the pitch and playing himself, not sure what people expect of Garner.
Better defensive organization, particularly when we're defending in our own third.
Better defending in transition, this has been a problem all season.
Working on delivery and final balls.
Garner has work to do. That being said, Garner is not the biggest problem here. We have Stockley up front. We have a CM converted to RB playing LB. We have Lavelle at CB. And our only striker on the bench is 18. We should definitely be doing better with this squad, but this squad also has shortcomings.

Whilst I appreciate BG has been limited with his signings I expect a certain level of skill and professionalism from the players and that is down to BG and his coaching staff.
Our set pieces are shocking, our finishing is woeful and Stockley should be nowhere near the captain’s armband
I have to say I am increasingly unconvinced with Garner (and I kind of backed his appointment) - we seem to lack fight, tactics & any form of a plan - I know we are lacking a few players but this is not a weak starting line-up or subs bench & we look dead
hope I am proved wrong & we come back & win this 3-2

I don't honestly think we should when our only goal threat is Shockley and an all be it, promising, 18 year old.
Garner isn't the problem, just like Jackson wasn't last year, the problem is poor recruitment/lack of recruitment.

Our best player is a kid from Palace and they will take him back if this continues.
Our league position flatters us - we could end up in League 2.
Wholesale change over years might turn this around.
