Love him to bits and would never slag him off,but Barry Bannan FC of which we have become will end soon,we cannot channel everything through this guy,poor bugger,got the weight of Wednesday on his shoulders,cant wait for a new five or six proper midfield players to be added to the squad,i stead of Baz having to play school teacher.

Idiot definitely wasn’t the word I typed by the way @Luke

Bannan wasn’t the problem. Basically man marked out the game. There was no space to receive it in so that’s why he went wondering to try influence the game

They pressed well 

He doesn’t tend to play well vs them . Not a great game from Him

At least we can rely on you to post your usual divisive drivel.

Yep. Even though the pigs aren’t a great side, we made them look brilliant today

Having to do that job of the entire midfield.

at 35

you can see he’s knackered with how every game he ends up left back just trying to stay involved.

Weird how he’s always singled out in these games.

He plays a great ball to Ingelsson in first 10 and Svante flops it with an awful shot. That ball to Campbell and it’s probably 1-0

Wilder did a job today.. targeted Bannan and Amass.. basically said these two are the only ones we need to take care of and they did and they were right. 0-3

If he’d got the ball in any half decent space, then what

Contender for the oddest OP of the year award

Absolutely,we basically have no midfield,not difficult for W---k-- to work out,we should have by passed the midfield and gone long all game to turn them around,they definitely got their tactics right against much weaker opposition.

Bannan is carrying an injury. 

Hence why he cannot sustain himself in the middle. He is a legend.

He has helped Amass come on a lot! 

But Bannan has very average players around him.

Can't fault Bannan when most of the side is poor. He did his best in that match. Him and Amass.

We need a ball winning midfielder and maybe plus one other pdq during January. Bannan is "floating" more like Ingelsson.... but that is leaving our midfield weak. Valery is a RWB. 

He wasn’t our MoM for a change.

Amass was the shining light with some potential from Cooper.

Even though Horvath made some saves which keepers at this level would be expected to make anyway, but poor positioning for two.

Everyone else looked physically and mentally shattered.
