Cifuentes must make tough decisions

The five-hour round trip away to Wrexham on Tuesday was exactly as you’d imagine on a cold, wet night in January.

Football is supposed to make those kind of trips worthwhile, but sadly it just added to the misery of the evening.

The fans were muted for the most part, likely stunned into silence by what they were witnessing and have witnessed from our performances these past few months.

The equaliser was met with a sarcastic cheer from some and despite rescuing a point late on, it really felt like a loss.

Seeing the glass half full is getting increasingly harder to do with this side. We are an enigma; a team seemingly full of talent but unable to orchestrate any 90-minute performance this season.

The 22 games without a clean sheet in the league tells the sorry tale of our defending.

Oxford arrive on Saturday and what should be a winnable game really doesn’t feel like it, and I have no idea how we are going to break this cycle of apathetic football. More so, if star man Jordan James misses the game through injury as is expected.

Marti Cifuentes made some tough decisions earlier in the season, with the Harry Winks and Wout Faes sagas.

But he must make further ones to punish the persistent under-performers and at least experiment more with some of the youth, whilst cash is tight, who have been given only minutes here and there.

If his stubbornness continues, so will the poor performances and his job will become increasingly untenable. Nothing changes unless something changes.
