If you critique today's performance we simply didn't show enough ambition to win the game so the draw is what we deserved. True, critique is a better word !

I'm not buying this "parking the bus" crap. Besides Collins (whose struggled since leaving Luton..) - I don't think any of those players are known goal scorers , it's no wonder we are struggling for them. We need another option. Whether it's Cannon from Everton or more experience with goals in the locker. If Roofe is a target, get him ffs All of our forwards, with the exception of Dobbin, have contributed regular goals throughout their career, and a regular providers for others. I guess that some football fans are so determined to be downbeat that they are prepared to ignore facts. Ramrob and David Graham Brown 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy Git Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 On the Derby away goals theme (or lack of), maybe I should stop going to away games? Been to both away matches this season and seen a big fat zilch. Last season I saw us score only 4 goals in 7 away games and two of those were at Blackpool!

Yes, most of their players do not individually match up to our team, but they make the most of their limited resources and in my opinion deserved their point. Didn’t feel it was like the charlton game, thought they were more difficult to penetrate. We’ll face this a lot, there’ll be plenty of teams who will be targeting 1 point from each of their games with us. It’ll be interesting to see what LR does - Bird more advanced? (he can make the passes others don’t see), more focus on dead ball situations in attack ? organise a better high press ? Sit deeper out of possession and look for fast transition. Feel Dobbin will improve with experience and he could become important as a 60 minute sub as defences tire.

Big Trav Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I thought Collin’s attitude wasn’t great last night. Was getting very frustrated and didn’t look like he was enjoying his football. Fleetwood I’d drop him for Didzy. Dobbin was a real bright spark. The main concern was that we weren’t shooting enough and didn’t test the keeper. Hendrick and Bryson used to pop shots off just outside the box and they’d usually win a corner or force a good save to allow us to keep the pressure on. Instead now we try pass it in. Korey Smith isn’t being utilised properly either. He’s a deeper midfielder not an attacker. I’d even be tempted to swap him and knight around for Fleetwood. There were some positives, but are outweighed by the fact we cannot score at the moment. But on that note it’s our best start to a season in 8 so clearly we’re doing something right Taribo and Chester40 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he frustrated for the same reason as those most vocally unhappy? His take is we dominated the game, dictated the pace and created chances that frustratingly we didn't put away and next time we would. Against Charlton I agree that was right...but maybe last night was more slowly slowly and a touch negative and it was predictable in every sense of the word. I was frustrated that we didnt move the ball more quickly, didn't try to get players behind their lines and whilst we dominated possession we maybe didn't do enough to really deserve 3 points. No alarmism ..just an observation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Buckley’s Dog Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 We should have started with Sibley. Maybe the result would have been the same or worse but I felt it was an overly defensive line up lacking in ambition and so it proved. The bright spot for me was Dobbin who looked like he could be a threat in future games. Overlapping full backs would be nice though - maybe they are under instruction not to? Who knows. I’m not entirely sure where the goals are coming from but hopefully it will come soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win on Saturday. That's a big if though isn't it. That's like saying if my business comes good this time next year Rodney we'll be millionaires, with our away record ? If we score first I think we'll be alright but on what we have seen so far this season we are really lacking in the scoring department. I think we need another striker of quality +a RB so we can play Knight in midfield as other people have said.

DerbyRevolution Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 (edited) I asked this last night and got no response, so i'll ask again... Why are we passing it round the back for over half the game? We have superior players and we're just ticking the clock down for the opposition turning it into a 30 min football match, then its a lottery My understanding is playing out from the back is a tactic used to try and beat a press. if 3 or 4 of the opposition press and you play through it you are through and advance on their defence Last night we played it round the back, beat the shrewsbury one man press then cashin either goes long into their half or it goes into bird or hourihanne. at either point shrewsbury had 10 players all in position in their half I know its early in the season but I dont see this tactic changing, i can see many away games ending 0-0 or worse. lets be honest, if Shrewsbury were half decent last night going forward we would have been punished Edited August 17, 2022 by DerbyRevolution HorsforthRam and Hector was the best 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hintonsboots Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Get Dobbin in the box playing off Collins. He reminds me of @Dean (hick) Saunders when he runs with the ball and will be a total nightmare for defenders in the penalty area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
