Half the squad are Jackshitt players that needed to play safety first handbrake on football because they can't play to space.
The recent results in the style of play patently prove that.
Where Cowley has been supported in bringing players in, he has brought players in who can play his pressing brand of football and generally he has improved the quality of the player in that position.
Where Cowley is perhaps going wrong is trying to play his style with half a team that are woefully short of the standard required to carry it out.
If I were him, I would revert to a 4-3-3 cum 4-5-1 and try and grind results out until the next window, then go after more Bazunus, more Morells, more Romeos.
Maybe we do a backwards Pompey and have a great January and second half of the season, and play the Cowley press in 2022.
