New medical and fitness staff and now more injuries than ever at this stage. New goalkeeper coach and Anssi shaky on crosses and kicking wasn't the best yesterday. Have we really improved the setup, or as usual at this football club, replaced what we had with inferior quality? Anssi's kicking was poor as he had to try and find a player out wide yesterday rather than just boot it to our no 9. As far as his b@lls up for the goal I doubt the fact he'd played so little football since May helped him. Anssi is probably the best keeper in League Two, not sure about the level of coaching he will receive now though. Hopefully Warner will prove to be better than the previous chap who won a couple of FA Cups during his coaching career and coached numerous international goalkeepers.

Anssi might be the best in League 2 but even the best make mistakes and he had a very poor game yesterday. We won't know till the end of the season whether or not he is one of the best as his number of appearances in the last two seasons due to both injuries and International duty would have him nowhere near the best keeper in League 1.

I think the situation with injuries has been made to look worse due to players getting injured over the back end of last season and still not being fit for the start of this. Plus a few players have had covid, or couldn't train as self isolating. I'm sure the injuries will all settle down at some point when everyone is match fit and available. Seems we are still paying for last season in terms of fitness...
