SillyBilly Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 The result isn't a shock after seeing that team sheet and set-up. Seriously hope that isn't the management team believing a hype, almost a lack of respect to the competition of the Championship...it was that "off". I hate losing games like this, rather get trashed knowing we've given it a shot, tonight we've turned up to fulfil a fixture, nothing more. Not sure I understand the tinkering in defence, we were solid as a rock for weeks, I thought the problem was our lack of creativity and goals, not defence.

Nah, you’re alright I’ll take it towards the corner flag. Shocking, just shocking. No CKR to play off or to move defenders about, so all they've got to run towards is trouble - it's no surprise they run to where the opposition aren't, it's the only open space they can see.

But when you take away the stability in defence then it just exposes the total lack of attacking threat and a cutting edge which has been constant all season. I know it's early doors but Roberts isn't cutting it for me already. Jozwiak is rapidly turning into a huge disappointment and if we think that Waghorn will be our saviour then Christ we have issues.

It's not even just that he can't pass, he's woeful at actually offering for the ball and getting himself into space. It's a big reason why our play in and around midfield looks so stagnant at times and it's a major driver of why you'll see it going sideways at the back because rather than dropping into space and giving an easy ball he's a statue and practically marks himself out of the game. I lost count of the number of times tonight where there was a little pocket of space for him to drop into to help out. And it was such a crying relief to see both Bird and Watson do that basic thing of actually moving in that second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame we don't get into the opposition's half to contrive to make one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKRam Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 More pressure on Saturday, IF we come out with three points then resting players seen as clever move. If we lose then I’m giving this forum a wide berth.......till I’ve got drunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No both had the choice to drive into the box and try and get a shot off. Believe me static strikers is a pet hate but this wasn’t the case here. I love you man (see the drink is beginning to work ?) but there’s no defending any of them tonight. And Cardiff? Call me entitled but who the eff are Cardiff?
