Much prefer him to Max Lowe. Yes I agree with that but he is making a good fist of it and I think he could become extremely good if his pace lasts but then he could fall back into a centre half if it did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram1964 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 A point I wasn't expecting? , however disappointed that we can't maintain a lead and that we sat back and let them plough into us second half which inevitably would lead to them scoring.should have brought Colin on to have an outlet and physical presence to hold on the ball and break up play. Not in the Cocu out mindset ,but not sure he is grasping the championship as he ought at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could all see what was going to happen and that changes were needed but the management team ignored the obvious and essentially allowed it to happen...poor old Buchanan was just the last link in that chain of failings that led to the goal. I think you know that too if you were being honest. That wasn’t 5 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 First half we defended in shape beautifully, our starting point was the three forwards pressing from the half way line. Second half we dropped further and further back until our front three were 30 yards back in our own half. This wasn't tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sage Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Interestingly we conceded yesterday after we started to attack a little more with Holmes and Lawrence either side of Waghorn. Most of there chances came from misplaced passes from us as we started to attack. Some if this doesn't fit the narrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite,I mean just what are we up to in thinking of attacking at all,we are clearly no good at it. Just place 10 men on the goal line and soak it up for 90 minutes. I'm up for us drawing every match in the next ten years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we need to give the ball away less when breaking then we may be more inclined to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We carried on as we were for a while, then made the switch. We often sit back and then go for it again with 15 mins left. I think it's a fitness issue.

For me we've got to the point that it's down to the manager. For you it's reasons that aren't down to the manager. ? #COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is altering tactics to cope with returning players not being fit enough to play full tilt 2 games a week. Or we could rest Lawrence and Waghorn and have a front 3 of Rooney, Holmes and Knight again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
