Pathetic attempt to defend, he's not even close to his man or the ball as he jumps, he just tries to jump high in the air. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,695 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 4 minutes ago, Whoppy said: Difficult first half, I appreciate we haven’t played much football but my words it makes it hard when Coventry hoof it high every time they have the ball. I can’t help but feel we are playing their game more than our own (we don’t hoof it that much!) really nice to see that header from Hall, we have really missed that attacking presence from set pieces. Only Wycombe play more long balls a game than us in the whole of the league. Only Barnsley have a worse percentage of successful long balls than us in the league. People see what they want to see. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Leesider 1,069 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 So glad my often predicted Hall header materialised at last! Couldnt see any any other way of scoring, Schoolyard football,Hard to watch.we can only improve. Link to post Share on other sites
DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Dijksteel for Fisher and slot McNair into the back 3. I'd also probably bring Watmore on for Spence. I've been banging on about it for a few games, but Dijksteel looks a bit off the pace. Spence hasn't done too much wrong, but I think the way the game will go (Coventry sitting deeper in the 2nd half), getting someone with more trickery will help unlock that defence. Plus with those changes we can push McNair back into defence, barring the set piece he's been largely anonymous in midfield. Link to post Share on other sites

Especially when they hit us on the break. It’s been very noticeable specifically at home games. Link to post Share on other sites

Can't think of much else to complain about except our own performance. Still not slipping over as much as they do at our place though 🙂 Link to post Share on other sites

Seemed he just jumped for the sake of jumping instead of actually going to attack the ball. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If you look, we must have had two or three players marking nobody at all in the middle. Link to post Share on other sites
Redcar Rioja 5,872 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Dijksteel looks like he has caught the dread Assombalonga virus. Wherever that abscess was it looks like they removed half his footballing brain with it. I'd hook him at half time and go with a back three of Fry, Hall and McNair. Throw on Johnson, Watmore or Bolasie to add more impetus and less impotence. No point in drawing, only wins will do so do or die for me. Link to post Share on other sites

He’s much better at RB than CB in my opinion. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
