KrolMong Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Looks like a 3-5-2. Paterson and Delgado as wingbacks, Byers, Bannan and Windass as a three, Smith and Gregory up top. Ok with that lineup and shape. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrolMong Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 We don’t look great without the ball. Cardiff have created and missed some decent chances. In possession, the neater looking side though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkowlthesexynewversion Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Certainly got to turn the not bad build up play into proper chances Agree that we still look a bit in trouble down the flanks and crosses.

KrolMong Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Second half has been unacceptable. Cardiff have upped the tempo, pressed us and got on top. We look poor defensively, not stopped crosses coming in. I actually see the sense in bringing Vaulks on. But… they really fancy it against Delgado.

mkowlthesexynewversion Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 The lino had to give that as other wise the ref was guessing. Why Vaulks did that is another matter entirely, but it was not an obvious handball. But we had an attacking purpose so fleetingly yet again. And I am yet to grasp what Xiscoball is, other than trying to replicate fucking Monk.

Totally agree that we had 10 minutes of decent pressure at the end of which we scored. But we couldn't sustain it. My annoyance is still that there are too many square pegs in round holes all over the pitch. Patterson and Delgado can't fault the effort but in a 3 5 2 you have to more quality. Equally let's be clear Smith is not a Championship striker - though neither is Fletcher. What position was Gregory playing, certainly not one he is massively going to impact the game And what is our attacking plan Are we going to defend the wings better Why does our keeper not come for crosses in the 6 yard box It is better but this is simply not good enough to gain points in this league. More concerning I can't see where Xisco is going to wave a magic wand to change it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrolMong Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Bannan today looked like the only one who can play in a two at this level. That horrifies me. Awful decision making from Vaulks. Watched it a few times, cast iron penalty and the big difference between crosses in the 2nd and 3rd division. At this level, it’s going to get fired across all be box, which means your ability to read the flight and move your feet is critical. Vaulks did neither. But… we had a spell before we scored where we opened them up. Late runs from Windass caused chaos. Sadly, two shit goals, too many players on the peripheral (wing backs, strikers). Woefully short of quality, and mobility. We need to spend a couple of million now to keep us up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank_Owl2,0 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Not watched it. So I can’t say owt about how they played obviously, but I must admit I was a bit surprised when I saw the team selection. Momos injury could be more crucial than we know and Byers not firing yet could similarly be a problem-if he’s not going to start turn in 90mins bc to me it’s our midfield that is the problem a) bc we are letting teams pass through us too easily - Momo would stop that and b) we are struggling to connect to our strikers, which Byers with Bannan could do. I do agree though Smiths not good enough and I don’t think the answer is Fletcher. I get the squad rotation is the modern thing but making lots of changes all the time just seems like an illogical things to do. It’s a game by game version of what has happened over the summer of changing the system and loads of the squad. Granted he needs to try a few things out but I also think he’s not helping himself playing players out of their best position as MK says. Interesting Delgado keeps getting picked, yet to me he’s not been that fantastic so far - unless he’s suddenly been the MoM today? L**ds beat the tractor boys today, so we could be in for a long afternoon next week. Then again, it’s football, maybe we can somehow keep a clean sheet and get a goal. Can’t see us scoring more than one at present though. Changes nothing for me. He needs to show a big step in progress after the International break and fingers crossed Momo will be back to be part of it. Still too early to start mithering.

He’s employed this clown of a manager and he’s responsible for the budgets that mean we’ve had to take mainly foreigners that could take 6 months or more to fit in. The bloke is an incompetent fool and the sooner he fucks off the better Apparently a chant from the away end of Chansiri get out of our club. Sadly he is the custodian so can do the fuck he wants, for the price he wants. We should be grateful for his money, but on how to run a sustainable football club and have a plan he is as clueless as his latest head coach appointment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
