North_Stand_Ram Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Let's face it, we just didn't get going at all. The stopped us playing it short and it rattled us. We had no plan B and had to result to a poor long ball strategy. Not having a go at McClaren, far from it, but we were shocking. I'm sure it is just a one off, onto the next one COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaftesbury Street Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Yep worst i've seen. But all down to the team today. He saw things wasn't right and made the correct moves at half time, but still didn't perform. Re group and on to the next one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Teams find it easier to stop us playing from the back when Eustace and Whitbread play as opposed to Thorne/Mascarelll and Buxton and maybe Shotton. We need to improve the defensive passing and get Butland to practice kicking it 50 yards onto not over Forsyth's head for when we do need to go long.

R@M Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Typical.....for the first time ever my lad took interest in watching the football highlights. I haven't even put the league show on....just reiterated we never want dirty leeds, florists or Liverpool to win. He gets the message! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardifframs Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Butland is a very good keeper,but I think we are missing grants distribution Ball is always gone to one of the defenders,where today,we were hoofing it,and losing our most dangerous threat We just looked very very flat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JW- Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Yep definitely the worst, but its good to get it out the system early doors, when we're still top. I remember Leicester getting dicked 4-1 at home to Brighton last year. It happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perky1106 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 We were poor. This time it wasn't about being unlucky or conceding one goal against the way of play like QPR. We weren't bullied or outdone by cynical strategy like Millwall at home last year. We were just toss and deserved to lose. Problem is not our lack of Plan B. If this was the case, every team would do what Wigan did and play a high line putting pressure on our back four so we can't play out from the back and we would never win. I just think Butland and Whitbread struggled to fit in to our distribution plan. We can play off the long ball when we get it to our full backs correctly.

Alph Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Whitbread was poor in possession when he had options but tbf to him he rarely had options. Hendrick, Bryson, Hughes and Eustace were battered. Completely overran and lost the midfield battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peakram Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Distribution from the back was so poor it meant we never had chance to get going. Kicking from Butland the worst I have ever seen from a keeper, Whitbread and Forsyth shocking delivery, even Christie wasn't getting forward as he usually does and didn't see any of Keogh's surges to the half way line. With Whitbread passing back to the goalie so often and then him kicking it straight out, it just meant stoppage after stoppage and never got the remotest semblance of any rhythm.

Ambitious Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Easily our worst performance under McClaren. It just wasn't a Derby County performance. I hope Buxton and Mascarell get a chance - and takes it - at Fulham. I just feel we're a team with more potential with them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
