Vs Nagoya Grampus (away) 10/8/19 - J League match 22

Nagoya Grampus 3 - 0 Kawasaki Frontale


I couldn't watch this as I'm STILL on holiday. Another bad result as we are STILL apparently rubbish. This has got to be game over I reckon. We need so many failures from so many other teams whilst significantly improving ourselves. People are complaining about the ref and bad decisions, but even if our ball-over-the-line-not-given goal was given and their first goal was offside, we still would have lost. Taniguchi and Jesiel both banned for our next league game and Oniki has allowed Michael James to return to Albirex Niigata leaving us with zero centre backs. I really don't understand what he is thinking. Oh, and once again, Kurumaya at right back, Nobori left and then swapped at half time. Still doesn't work, eh? Who'd have thought it? A loss to Okayama in the Emperor's Cup and a failure to beat Sendai in the next league game and there really should be some pressure on Oniki. To be honest, at most clubs, there already would be and probably would have been a change. I still hope he can sort things out, but I have plenty of doubts. What a waste! We have a great squad and are almost certainly going to have our worst finish for years.

MF 10. OSHIMA Ryota - was due to start but was replaced by Yamamura after getting injured at the last minute. Another bit of bad news and another possible dodgy Oniki decision to name him as a starter if he wasn't really fit.
