CapeTownRams Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 4 minutes ago, Gee SCREAMER !! said: Should we surprise them and play a ball through midfield. Exactly….. we are just too predictable - opposition teams know that if they can cut off the balls down the line after we push it out wide (every time it seems) then we have no Plan B to create and come through the middle… SKRam, RoyMac5 and S8TY 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crewton Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 We need more of an obstacle in midfield than either Hourihane or Bird. Too often, Lincoln players have been able to run unchallenged from their own half on the break. We need to stop that. I feel that when we apply pressure, they're defending is bordering on desperate, so if we can stop those breaks, we can get our noses in front.

We definitely need a midfield enforcer who’s going to sit in centre of park Hourihane nor Bird are these players I’d bring Thommo on for Sibley or Elder and swap Sibley to LB can see a 3 at back coming here 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorsforthRam Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 We seem to lack composure all over the pitch at times. Second or third pass just goes into the air. Add that composure and we should win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of nearly play i.e. things that didn’t quite work. A few good shots / openings. But we’ve left ourselves open to breakaway runs and could easily have conceded.

May Contain Nuts Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Just sounds like the typical Derby performance when we don't score, get lucky that the opposition can't finish despite our tactics leaving us open to counter attacks and then go on to win it.

S8TY Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 I’d rather have Bradley Johnson just sitting in midfield in games like this if we can’t find midfielders that can tackle ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerphilly Ram Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Sibley comes close with a strike just wide from 25 yards. That’s what he’s good at, finding that little pocket of space outside the area and drilling the shot across the keeper to that opposite post. Hopefully that one was a range finder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matchday Fred Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) I fear it will cost us dear this season if Warne doesn’t address the known issue in midfield ie the lack of legs and pace. It’s killing us attacking wise (everything goes down a wing and ends up with a cross) and particularly defending where midfield is an open door to the opposition. Been saying for 18 mths you cannot pair `Hourihane and Bird in midfield, they are both luxuries who play at exhibition pace.
