Where we going to finish?

But surely we already have three in the midfield. What needs to happen, in those situations, is for one of the 2 CM's to drop in with the CDM more, while the other one links the mids and Martin/Bent. And this should really only apply to away games. If we're at home, drawing with 5 minutes to go, I would like to think that regardless of how we're playing, we should be ones pushing for an equaliser.

But only one of our CMs is performing. Hendrick and Bryson are nowhere atm.

At the minute, I agree. Hendrick has been woeful positionally, which means that all his strength and technical ability is wasted. Bryson did not look fit on Saturday, needs another runout against Chesterfield to get going.

Whoever wins this league will have lost at least 10 games in the process. If we're going to be like this after every defeat, I've got bad news for you all - even if we win the league, it's going to happen a few times more yet. Teams have won the Championship in recent years with 12 defeats to their name. We could be only half-way through our total number of defeats on the way to automatic promotion with over half the season done.

 

"The Ipswich win counted for nothing". What? It counted for three points. Imagine where we'd be if we hadn't - we'd have slipped right back away again.

 

We've had a few performances like this but we've yet to fall out of the reckoning, because other teams in the top 6 are doing the same thing.

 

We're too used to the Premier League idea of the top few teams running away with it and losing no more than half a dozen games to win the league. It's never like that in this league, and certainly not like that this season. he difference between us and Forest is nowhere near as great as it is between City and Stoke.

 

a) they did last year

 

b) City are Stoke? 

 

 

but yes, I agree with you. Still feeling a bit
