With our midfield threadbare it scunners me there isn't one player from our academy that could help out, that is a disgrace feck me we have 2 training grounds and there isn't one that could step up, embarrassing.

Another major flaw in how the club is being 'run' and between that, the farcical recruitment record and managerial merry-go-round; we are miles behind where we could be.

Our best young midfielders are out on loan. We probably had no idea our existing midfield would be so poor this year.
I honestly believe if we had a solid DM and pushed Calmac forward we would improve at both ends of the pitch. Sadly the guy who should be DM (Engels) is now injured. Shame we loaned out Inamura as I think he could have done a job there. Looked defensively strong and composed as well as good distribution.
We also sold Iwata a while back, without giving him an extended chance in his preferred role, (where he won POTY in Japan) . All because we have the seemingly "irreplaceable" Calmac strolling through games in that role, slowing us down as playing too predictably.
Currently, Bernardo looks the only other option, oh dear!

I blame BR for the majority of the players we have sold or loaned not being given time or a chance to show what they could do, because they were not the 10m players he asked for.
Oh is turning into a very powerful, strong and capable goalscorer and Inamura demonstrated that had had quality and was comfortable on the ball.
Inamura appears broken after what our club did to him, I hope he turns it around and Oh continues to improve.
Neither were given a real chance, game time to improve their confidence.
Nawroki and Jagerbielka looked good enough to do a job for us at rcb where Trusty is forced to play. Neither given a chance.
I have no issue with Trusty at left side but on the right he isn't the same player. He isn't the most comfortable with the ball at his feet but it is even more obvious at rcb.
Both Naw and Jag were better on the right side imo and should have been given time to settle in properly.
