Sexydadbod Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Our defence was solid the majority of last season,remember we went on a clean sheet spree at one stage and broke our previous clean sheet record if I reclall, it only crumbled at the end when Eustace got injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ev6is Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Well the lads were unlucky tonight not to win we had plently of shots on goal and cleared of the line and hit the post. If we play at a higher tempo I am sure we shall win more than we lose. And we have got 7 points out of 9. We are also in promation form I good win on saturday we shall be in top 6 or top 5. And chasing down brighton and boro. I still think we can win the league with out a doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 I love your optimism but I can't see us winning the league because we find it really hard to break down packed defences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North_Stand_Ram Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Bad turn of phrase on my part. We've swapped a dangerous attack and a suicidal defence for a solid defence and a blunt attack.I'm hoping it all clicks into place and we get our act together, but we're looking an absolute mile off what we did under McClaren during the 13/14 season, and for me that should be the standard.

Ramsam Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 What is it with the lack of creativity in our team? I am sure Keogh and Christie were the only ones who beat a player tonight.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ovis aries Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 What's happened to Johnson's late runs into the box, hope Clement has not stopped him doing it, it was a feature of his play last season, and produced most of his goals .

Derby blood Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Some very good football played tonight from Derby,just needed a bit of luck in front of goal , and we would have won,thought Keogh was class,bringing it out of defence,Mark Wright style Keogh has real impressed this season,also thought Christee played well,and Thorne was very good antil he tired,not much wrong with us,the more games we play the better,the team will gel,I really think at the end of the season, yes we have another 38 games left , we will be top 2.

King Puck Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Happy enough with the performance. Don't think the tactic of full backs getting forward and lumping high crosses in does Martin any favours. Christie played well, so that's a plus. Fozzie thinks that all he has to do going forward is fire off a boomer somewhere between the far post and corner flag (usually the latter). Plenty to work on but there is improvement and we'd probably have lost that last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reithe glas Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Feel a bit sorry for Weimann. Big opportunity tonight and he had a shocker. He must be better than that! Confidence can't be great now either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fridgeless Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 God there's some girls on here. It's not even October yet. New manager, new players, new style. IT. WILL. TAKE. TIME. I'm delighted we're only 1 point off the play offs at this stage, and I certainly would of taken that in July.. I can see serious potential in this team. Really enjoyed the game today. Two excellent defences. Some may crave free flowing attacking football, with end to end drama, but me being old fashioned, really enjoyed that. Back 4 excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAT Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Burnley have probably got the one of the best midfields in the championship and we absolutely bossed then tonight without Hughes and a half fit Thorne. Lesser teams (and that's arguable around 20) in the championship will get punished. A goaless draw is not a bad result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Carson 5 - Didn't read thre potential for deflection on that shot , this is what happens when you swap keepersChristie 9 - Always running forwards with the ball and it was Keogh who didn't close down the left wingers shot in timeForsyth 3 - Not good passing, only things we did well was defend, tackle, win headers, make loads of runs and put crosses in Keogh 9 - superb performance, though i'd have only given it a 6 last yearShackell 9 - Didn't play as well as Keogh but will give him the same mark because i still think he better than KeoghThorne 5 - Kept possession well and set up our goal but didn't run around enough and he had a 2 week rest !!Butterfield 5 - Unlucky with the 30 yarder that hit the post and pssed brilliantly but no crunching tackles. Another Gladys Johnson 8 - Gave the ball away a lot but i loved the tackle that got him booked. Old SkoolInce 2 - Other than beating his man and scoring, didn't do anything and I didn't like his dad Martin 4 - Keeps falling over the big poof, stand up man and beat that 6'4" bloke in the airRussell 8 - Ran all day, unlucky not to have an attempt at goal I'm busy on Tuesday so got my report and ratings in now.

Ninos Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Very proud of our team tonight, thought they fought hard, won every 50/50 and even won the 25/75 s , and the passing was superb the defending excellent ... Obviously we are missing Bryson and Hughes for their clever attacking runs and vision and we clearly need to work on our final ball and when to take a shot and when not to - some of those decisions were pretty bad and low percentage. Also noticed that we would create a menacing situation then pass back and out of danger too much. But today showed why PC is light years ahead of our recent managers in creating a team that oozes defensive strength and controls a game start to finish. Excited for the games to come !
