So true. Man for man we are no match for even the mid-table teams in terms of technical abilities. No ability to hold and shield the ball, no idea how to tackle other than clattering and fouling opponents (AP15, take a bow), forwards running straight into opponents' defence hoping for lucky deflections, wrong decisions at critical times, poor shooting from midfielders, etc, etc... the list doesn't end. At least DDG is honest enough to admit it.
I actually see an improvement in recent games - an ability to escape opponent's pressing which has been our Archilles heel for the longest time.
Can Poch make any difference to this sorry lot? I doubt it very much. The players are simply not good enough.
Thats the point. When the current set of players, even a peak SAF would find it difficult to win games. Just look at the midfield. AP and Fred. They can never compete with physical players and their passing is ... what to do ? no more players. Failure to replace players when they left.
The thing is that even if they sack ole, the same problem will still remain. No quality in the midfield.
