v Millwall (A) Match Thread

[Bris Vegas]

It's the midfield which is the problem. We don't have the right type of holding midfielder or linking midfielder.

We can't build attacks from the back. We're easily being turned over (possession).

garbage - need a new back 4

We've got 11 defenders to pick from - you would think we would be able to form some form of good defensive unit out of a combination of any of the below.

Wisdom, Forsyth, Tomori, Keogh, Davies, Pearce, Olsson, Lowe, Bogle, Anya and Malone

This is embarassing. Shipping goals at the moment.

Need Davies back or drop Pearce back in.

[Bazal77]

How anyone here can call for the return of rowett ball is beyond me, Disgraceful! we can’t win every game we are going to have bad games, luckily for us we are getting them out of the way nice and early 

[Topram]

Embarrassing how Pearce has been over looked here

maybe we need a good defensive coach then!! local rec stuff at the mo

[tomsdubs]

The worst thing is we beat ourselves. Ridiculous.

[NottsRam77]

We’re killing ourselves trying to play out from the back 

 

I applaud the effort to do so but if u haven’t got the tools to do it they’ll be many more goals against us 

our defending this season and in the last two games has been nothing short of shambolic 

im sorry but wtf is the fuss about tomori 

at fault for 2 goals against Leeds, gave away a stupid free kick for the first today and then cant help own goals but ..... sorry I’m just seeing a a rookie defender making rookie mistakes 

[Chilwellram]

We don’t learn do we. We knew we would be outrun in midfield and have done nothing to prevent it with that team !

This is dire, defending like we’re on the park

Keogh, Tomori and Malone all been appaling

 

Millwall know all about malone’s ability not to defend 

[Topram]

Shocking defending 

[Bris Vegas]

Bryson is playing at CB almost.

TO BE FAIR - all Carson had to do was a play a <10 yard pass to Bryson and he was in a ton of space. I don't care what players you have, anyone should be able to play that pass. 

This has been a longstanding criticism I’ve had of Carson. Players just can’t.

Yep ditch it all after 2 and a bit league games , that makes sense. Tweak it maybe bit ditch it ? 

How many times do you get thumped before admitting you’ve got it wrong? Serious question.

Plus, a tweak is changing it, same as ditching it in my book, guess it depends how you like to word things....

[Topram]

Why is johnson playing CDM

[Sexydadbod]

Uncle Mels finger is getting twitchy.

Midfield is all over the place, never going to get anywhere with Bryson in this position

3 at the back doesn’t need to be more defensive, if it gets your attacking players on the ball more, it’s a positive move.

I was quoting a suggestion of taking Bryson off for Wisdom to go 5 at the back. A positive move?

This sounds like Pearson but with more goals...against us.

Slightly different as I can actually see what we're trying to do, although its not going well at all. I still don't know what the tactical style was under Pearson.
