Match Thread: vs Port Vale (H)

Great 3 points against a poor Vale side but we can only beat what they put in front of us. My only real moan is the way we sat back again when 1 nil up 😡

just hope Warne sticks with this line up and formation (injuries allowing) now till the end of the season 👍 Gayle finished well too so all good 😊

Hmmmmm.

Did the job and got the three points which is all that matters. Performance wasn’t the greatest, against one of the poorest teams we’ve seen at home.

Ward and Sibleys performances were big positives, Gayle got an goal and we created more chances than the last few games combined.

Bit concerned about the isolation of Gayle though. Playing three CB’s means we haven’t got an attacking midfielder to work around him and link the midfield and attack leaving him feeding off scraps which isn’t his game. Against better teams this will be an even bigger issue, we need to work out how to utilise his talents better.

Big couple of weeks coming up, hopefully we can keep improving!

Job done, 3 goals, 3 points, 3 cbs with a clean sheet. 
Hopefully a turning point in the recent run, I know Port Vale didn’t offer much of a challenge but it’s important to win and we did so in a deserved manner. 

Indeed. Did what we had to do. Some other results went our way. Don’t like to say it, seen us implode so often, but we look set for a play off place at least.

Great to get back to winning ways. And Sky gave me a free £1 build a bet that was used to fine effect:

With everyone else winning too, we briefly remain effectively 4th (on points per games), but it's very tight between Bolton, Barnsley and us, and because Barnsley play Bolton midweek, whatever the result we will sit 3rd on ppg. Plus goal difference may yet be a factor. Boosting that really helps and brings confidence.

Do you so know little about football that if someone points out that Sibley is not a full back, and hence we are not playing with 5 at the back, that you post a sarcastic response that the poster thinks of themselves as some sort of tactical genius.

In the same way that posters continually moan about Warne's press conference, there are also people who think 3 cbs equals a highly defensive 5 at the back.

As was mentiond earlier in this thread, thess debates are so tiresome and moronic.

Good debates are around the style of play, which system suits our players the best, do we have the right players, is the manager improving the players etc.

"Why does Warne say the opposition are good" and "why are playing 5 across the back vs this team" is just really boring.

Have we ever played 5 at the back this season? We have either played 2 cbs and 2 full backs, or we play 3 cbs with 2 high wing backs.

Bet your fun at parties
