Dai Capp Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 bit shot shy tonight but we've shown enough to suggest we can get something out of this... Just get the feeling over the last few games that we're close to really clicking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistoldPete2 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Bit tired do you think? 33 year old Chris Baird is playing his 3rd game in 6 days, as are Keogh, Shackell, Thorne, Ince and Martin.I think Thorne looks a bit tired too... Not surprising as we're asking him to be a one- man midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silko Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Really don't like this set up .... Russel looks cumbersome, Martin slow, Bent clumsy .... Thorne inconspicuous....... How long before the crowd start singing .... You don't know what you're doing ..... Anyone can string 50 passes together in there own half and then give it away .... I may be proven wrong (and really hope I am) ... But if Clement is still in charge by Christmas I'll be amazed he's assembled a group of premier league also rans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyinLiverpool Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 You are just a windup. Haha, it's you that said: If we wanted we could have had a healthy lead at half time.It's utterly stupid to suggest that the players don't want to be leading.

deanoakaram4life Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Midfield is the issue! They have 3 bodies in there, we have two (with one being Baird.) Both defensively minded to!! Thorne and Baird only going to get more weary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammieib Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 At the game - think there are some unfair comments here.look how deep they are defending against us. Even the two strikers are half way in their own half.We have attacking players on the pitch hence we look a bit uncomfortable at times defensively but is not easy with 11 men back behind the ball. The goal was lucky but I don't have an issue with my centre mid not running out to block a shot from 40 yards. It's when they are under 25 yards I want them running out.I would like bent to get in behind them more. Martin won't be as effective holding the ball up as e doesn't have the runners in this formation - so it's hold it up and spread it out wide.anyway far too many fans not getting behind the team enough for my liking.

Ambitious Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 You make your own luck in football, unfortunately. I do think we've done okay, but we're definitely lacking something. 45 minutes to sort it out, but we need to show a lot more aggression and will to get on to chances when they get in the box. I don't think we have the look of a side that will in the Premier League next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnieronalde Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Bar the first 10 minutes when I really feared it was going to be one sided, it's not been too bad at all, that spell of 5 fairly clear cut chances, one of those has to be put away.I reckon we had the ball under control in the half for about 15 seconds of those first 10 minutes.Poor from Baird for their goal, it's ok expecting your keeper not to get beat from 30 yards but to turn your back on a fairly tame shot is unforgivable. I still think he's been the better of the two central midfielders though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rad1919 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Yes the goal was unlucky but you can't defend a team that has no desire to get to the ball with the captain showing his shoulder as the ball goes past him. Where's the intensity gone? Horribly frustrating to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Taken all of about 1 minute of the second half to stand off someone shooting from range. This is an absolute joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
