Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I think Wing's getting away with murder here he's been absolutely shocking him slipping stupidly on halfway gave them the cross Dijksteel cleared then 2nd phase from the corner they score. Our fullbacks are doubled up on constantly Clayton's trying to put fires out everywhere I hate the way we're setup I really do. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Harsh to be losing but you can't give away free headers like that, poor, poor defending. Really enjoyed a lot of our play today, think pretty much everyone going forward has been great. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Think we've managed most things defensively pretty well. That with Randolph making a couple of good saves. Going forward we've been impressive at times and really, we're unlucky to be going in at half time without a goal of our own. Plenty to be happy with so far with the performance. Shame that we've let someone have a free header in the box though, that's disappointing. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

They’ve had more chances and imo they’ve edged it. However we’ve played some decent stuff, let’s build on it in second half with maybe Browne coming on later for some pace when they’re tiring.

jamesp 125 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Wing has been awful again, how does he keep getting in this team Link to post Share on other sites
PsychFur 128 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Zonal marking or man marking means nothing to us. As free a header as you'll see this weekend. Fry flat-footed, deep in his own 6 yard box. Link to post Share on other sites
pikerman 1,089 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Enjoyable half of football with some positives, strong in midfield and dangerous in attack, McNair our main man again. The defence started off looking better organised but started to get more ragged as the game moved on. I know he has not had many games but Dijksteel looks lost positionally, three times he was caught in no mans land and two of those mistakes could have cost us a goal.

How about shotton’s miscontrol about 15 minutes before that, let’s blame that for the goal too. poor defending from McNair for me, needed to do more to block the cross Link to post Share on other sites
Prowler 197 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Nah, goal was clearly a result of Fletcher hitting the post. Just came back out, no one went for it and 25 minutes they went and scored. Poor. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

All 3 of our forwards have been pretty good. Last game before the break, week since our last game, unless something changes with their performance, I'm not sure I'd be looking at Browne right now. Midfield is another question. So far it looks like Wing is the weakest link in midfield and with him being on a booking, I'd be looking to change that soon now we're chasing the game.

Was last seasons form a one off? Are we finally seeing the player he actually is?? Link to post Share on other sites

I don't even think he's been bad?! Like..he's played some nice passes. Little sloppy defensively but that's never really been his strong suit, I just think that side of his game was disguised more under Pulis. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Did you not see how bad the kick off was? 40 odd minutes later and they score, doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what caused us to be losing this game. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
