Probably offers a bit less going forward than Ebosele but is less impetuous! I’m sure that was down to confidence though, big game for him today wasn’t it. First start against Norwich etc. He got in good positions then seemed to lose confidence in going further forward or crossing it. Still, another one for the future ? angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much less than lots of Norwich fans will have. I've just watched 11% of his entire minutes on the pitch this season in the Championship. Norwich are the best team in the league by a distance, but they're certainly not top of the league due to his input.

ramboy63 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I think we all agree the second half was a decent effort and yes maybe we deserved a draw in the end That said 1 win in 10 is very worrying can we get anything from the next two away games because i think if we dont we could be in real trouble.Rotherham is the team that can decide our future there four games in hand are all at home and yes they are not pulling any trees up like ourselves but every game from now on in is a cup final.We all thought Birmingham would be the team dragged in to a two team decider to see who goes down sadly i think that team will be us SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds Ram Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Played very well second half but should have started the game like that. We look dangerous up until the point when we get near the box then we seem all too often to lack composure, ideas or quality which is why we're still not scoring. We really need to work on our defending of set pieces as for the past 3-4 matches teams have managed to create 2-3 chances a game from them and we'll eventually be punished. Results generally went our way with the exception of Birmingham and arguably Rotherham picking up a point. I still think we need 4 points from Blackburn and Preston which will be very different games from today and pose a different challenge. We're more than capable of getting them we just need to play like that second half. SKRam and HorsforthRam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yani P Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 We played the runaway leaders who were coming off a 7-0 win. We have half the squad missing with injuries, I think we played really well and competed with them for most of that game. The fact we are frustrated that we didnt get the point or more our play deserved shows how well we did. Big big games coming up but if we continue to play with that intent we will be fine. jono, Philmycock, archram and 17 others 12 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) For me that is Lawrence’s best position. 2nd striker with the freedom to roam. Able to find pockets of space and switch with wingers in order to move their defenders about. He isn’t a winger (any more than Sibley is).

Ramarena Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 First half was ok and second half was very good. Wizzy, bird and Shinnie the standouts. Created enough to at least get a point. Need to carry that 2nd half performance into the remaining games. Don’t fear the opposition and play our game. derbydaz22, CapePete, SKRam and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with all that apart from the last 3 words, I’m not sure we will. Not being able to score goals could be the big difference to us staying up or not, no matter the intent, passion and commitment, if we don’t put the ball in the net we’re in big trouble. I just don’t see from the fit players we have who’s going to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not me. You're right. it's utterly ridiculous. I only said to a friend last time we scored, I would enjoy this goal a lot more if We Are The Champions by Queen were being blasted around the stadium as I celebrate.

Donegal Ram Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Missed the game today because I sneaked across the border to play pitch and putt. Not surprised by the overall result but seems that we put it up to them. Just lack the goal scorers in this team which is the big issue and will be next season also. Results went the way we thought apart from birmingham but think stoke are poor and birmingham are improving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half the sqaud missing with injuries? Who would be guaranteed a start today who is injured? Only Clarke in my opinion. We did well enough in the second half but let's face it, Norwich were in second gear and very happy to sit back and manage out the game, which apart from Mengi's shot and Shinnie's effort at the end. Did we deserve something out of the game? Maybe, possibly given the fact we gave it a go. But goals are what it's about, and we didn't trouble their keeper nearly enough given the possession we had.
