LazloW Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 A draw here is a good result. I understand the frustration, as we could and should have gone on and won this game... but I still think some of the reactions have been - shall we say - a tad melodramatic.

Good performance from a lot of players; but the attacking players who's press was so good for 30 minutes looked dead on their feet before half time. Bournemouth bosses possession without any of that pressing; and a goal was inevitable. Could have lost it, easily. Still had a few great counterattacking opportunities that we wasted masterfully. Shinnie MOTM; Marshall with some incredible saves. Enjoy your weekend folks! Remember, its only football ☺️ Thanks for all the updates again Saint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 A few weeks ago we weren't going to get a single point in October according to some. Weve managed 6 so not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes from the back end of last season, got injured and came back too early, he hasn't looked right at all and has quite rightly had his critics BUT this game he played decent when he came on, made a couple of mistakes but who doesn't?

Mckram Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 An odd one as you’d 100% take a draw away against Bournemouth. It’s just frustrating when you think of what a good position we were in at half time and how we went about that second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yani P Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Its a bit Groundhog Day. Start well strong press look the better side Nearing HT signs we are tiring as press less impactful We go ahead but can't get a 2nd 2nd half opponent starts to get on top Subs are bizzare in the extreme We concede Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marriot Ram99 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 A point vs Bournemouth would usually be good but it's certainly isn't in our situation, we have 1 ducking win in 8 or 9 games now and less points than games it's terrible no matter how you dress it up and bottling leads consistently is very frustrating.

Steve How Hard? Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Not sure how we saw that one out but a good point in the end. No possible way we could have maintained that early press for 90 mins. The problem was that once we sat in for a breather we found it very difficult to get back out. They will be up there come the end of the season so a draw is no disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney1991 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 What you need to ask is would sone other managers get more out of these players either with line up or a 433. Would they be more incisive within the game subs and tactics and I feel someone else would be better. Let's be honest though who would you go for out there now I can't think of anyone tbh.

Whilst winning 1-0: Rooney off for a massively out of form midfielder. Right after conceding an equaliser: A defender (who had played well) for a defender. With 3 minutes left and still drawing: Takes off our striker and gives just a few minutes to 1 of our most creative players. Subs were absolutely correct. The MTW and Sibley ones were just a bit too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldstar Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 You can be disappointed in the familiar performance and result while acknowledging Bournemouth are a good side. Still doesn't mean that because they're a good team, Cocu is blameless for the formulaic outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Sibley should have been on for Lawrence far earlier. Lawrence had one of those days when he couldn't pick a pass. Frustrating because Bournemouth were there for the taking in the first half and we didn't take advantage of the breaks we had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 5 minutes ago, DerbyRam! said: It wasn't switching off. He was fully aware and made a bad decision to get drawn in and not stay with his assigned man. I think it was Clark who was already on the man he ran towards and left the space for the Bournemouth player completely unchallenged. Switch off/make a bad decision. He is 19 years old. He will make mistakes. The mistake wouldn’t have happened though if he hadn’t had to spend 70 minutes defending like his life was on the line. So negative from Cocu. They couldn’t handle our pressing for the first twenty minutes. Why change tact? If legs get tired then press at the centre circle rather than the 18 yard line but don’t give up what’s worked so well. I’m Cocu in by the way but he’s making it very difficult for me to defend him. Awful match management in 2 of the last 3 matches from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondest Goat Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 All those appearances for barca and Holland and yet so many randoms from Derby who couldn't even kick a ball know much more about tactics than cocu. Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was being abit unreasonable tbh, Im definitely not happy with him but would give it 2 more games now performances have improved and we have been victim of fine margins.
