You need a goal to stay in a title race

[brain]

but the notion that a manager making subs that largely keep the shape of the team intact is somehow clueless is just reactionary and unfounded

Yeh of course. I just think when we aren't even coming close to scoring, more drastic changes should be tried like putting two natural strikers high on their centre backs. Very often the free centre back sweeps up with ease when we are on that kind of form.

Roofe can only play certain minutes per the medics
Matondo did more than Silva and at least tried to shoot.
Sima was out on his feet and again managing minutes
Cantwell should have stayed on and Lawrence off

Matondo did far more than Silva, totally agree. It was the right sub. Roofe and Sima aren't fully fit.

We are absolutely out on our feet with injuries and poor form catching up with us.
