Gerhard Struber on Cardiff City defeat Interviews The post-match thoughts of the Barnsley boss following home loss to Welsh outfit. Continue reading on the official site...
If he feels his players weren't putting in enough effort then yes I do. Bringing two on much much earlier and then the third could well have made the difference yesterday BUT having the ******** to take off a third even after the game was lost sends a message to ritzmaier and other lazy players that they aren't untouchable and that they will be dropped. Allowing him to stay on the pitch just sent out the message that Struber was happy with his effort
the thing is which player to be 3rd sub would have any sufficient quality to have made a difference ?
I notice they've cut the bits about 'youth team v professional team' and 'lack of experience' out of the article.
Jordan Williams would have been an improvement on Ben Williams or ludewig Dougall or bahre would have been an improvement on ritzmaier
If Tina tyke was she would have been an improvement and she's been hung up in a cupboard for twenty years
He could have brought Messi, Ronaldo and Bobby Charlton on and we'd still have lost with those tactics. I hate playing Cardiff.
Not saying it would have made any difference but it was clear after ten minutes of the second half that the game was drifting away from us and I would have at least hoped that Struber would try to change something with a couple of subs . Dougall would have given us a bit more physical presence or maybe Struber could have changed to a back three or summat but instead he did nothing till Cardiff went two nil up.
