I honestly feel bad for Wicky. I honestly think he is trying to put together a good plan. It is the execution of the plan that is falling flat. Im glad Barlett scored but It kind of surprised me that Davis did not start. Do we know why? It will be interesting to see how the back line does and who he officially has start all the time. It has been the least consistent in who starts regularly. I know pulskamp is not to blame all the time. But I do wonder if a change in keeper would be helpful.
I hope Lee is cooking up some good stuff for the transfer window. We will see.
