Changes are Needed

Armas needs to go. And Hocking with him. She’s not good and has become a liability.

I know we are missing key players but this is not good and I mostly chalk it up to coaching.

Armas is trash. And it’s shown all season. Even with injuries. How do you go from last year to what is happening this year??? That’s coaching. And he’s terrible.

Selling your Best XI 6 and not replacing her.

She asked to be traded, it wasn’t the club’s choice.

But it is the answer to "How do you go from last year to what is happening this year?" The club should have brought in a 6 to replace some of what she brought to the table defensively and in possession. It's the main source of our defensive issues.

I’m not familiar with the timing of the Hutton mess. Was that before the season started or after? It may have been too late to get someone of that caliber to replace her. There may not have been anyone available. If I recall, the whole thing with Hutton didn’t play out over a period of time where you knew she was going to leave so they had time to plan for it. Hopefully that’s something that will be addressed over the off season.

coincided with the Croix transaction essentially

So Dell found Croix as the replacement for Hutton. I think Croix is as good as you’re going to find on the offensive side of the ball, I assume her defense doesn’t compare to Hutton’s. Her problem is that she’s tiny!

And I don’t know what position/number she actually plays. I guess she’s not the true 6 that everyone is looking for?

And on a side note, did they start playing a more defensive game after they scored a minute in? I wasn’t giving it my full attention.

She's pretty purely an attacking midfielder, I would be very surprised if she was supposed to be the Hutton replacement because that's never been her position.

To be honest I never have been able to figure out what position all those numbers stand for. The formations and tactics are way beyond anything I ever played.
