You Do The Dziekanowski Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Instead of the 'We're terrible' 'We're going down' 'I hate the club' threads and posts how about a bit of a positive one I'll start off Again as with the last couple of goals ee have conceded you can't pin the blame on a defender and as a unit they look a lot more solid Cunningham seems to enjoy it LM and has been our best midfielder in recent games. Offers defence and gets forward well Our midfield seemed to have more fight and determination in it (CM's that is) I can't remember a tranmere player having all the time in the world in the centre circle We look a threat in the air for the first time in ages So if we had a bit more creativity in midfield I feel we would've won comfortably The foundations are there and hopefully it was just an off game for JET Pack and Elliott creative wise COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Do The Dziekanowski Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Pack was man of the match I feel he could've done more creatively. He did a hell of a shift defensively I felt. Just a bit slow going forward but that's easy to change and could just be a one match thing Played very well though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Vega Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Funny how people see things differently , i thought he was our biggest threat with his passing , think Cotts obviously targetted there left back 1st half, Pack told to hit it over the top to Baldock and it worked too. 2nd half Tranmere got a lot closer to Pack and that's were maybe he needs to up his game ....improving all the time though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 We scored 2 goals ( for most teams sufficient for a win ) Balders scored again Williams got his first ever goal. No additional Ian Durys . We did n't lose . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tried to be safe instead of moving the ball quickly A little criticism as he did more attacking passing than Elliott did.

1960maaan Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Positives from yesterday, saw the Strypes at the Bierkeller and they were brilliant. Pressure tested my new engine for the Lammy and it's good and ready for rebuild. The chip shop was still open on the way home. Oh , and we didn't lose !

Guest SaltfordRed Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Thought Pack and Wade Elliot were good, as was Baldock. We were by no means great, but I've seen us play a lot worse. I felt like we were dangerous going forward, and would've won it if it wasn't for a wonder goal at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fuming Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Win a telly through his belly was the stand out moment. That kid clearly too young (7 years old?) physically to get the ball off the ground but he kept going! Two footed he just kept kicking away, must have had 20-30 attempts. His very last kick, steady's himself and dinks it through! Dave L time>>>Fergie time Also Williams continuing to impress, young player of the year?

I would say Cunningham has been better but Williams has been consistent throughout, Difficult one to chose Another positive!

ciderbeans Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I saw it different. Time and time again we allowed their players to run through us before an attempted challenge was made. Their number 4 (cb) and number 8 (cm) especially. This allowed them to play and provided them with the opportunities to score. We just always seem to back off. A big reason as to why we concede many. We need to get stuck in, win second balls and not give opposition a chance. This just does not happen and is frustrating to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK0wnag3 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 He did. He's had his detractors but technically I rate Williams and Osbourne as being our best defenders. I agree, I like Williams at full-back because he's a decent footballer as well as a good defender. Got forward and won some free kicks in dangerous areas. Awful at shooting though, luckily his big chance was with his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 He did. He's had his detractors but technically I rate Williams and Osbourne as being our best defenders. This I can't argue with although Osbourne had a poor game and - unusually - was probably our worst defender in that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SaltfordRed Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 He did. He's had his detractors but technically I rate Williams and Osbourne as being our best defenders. I agree. And in my opinion our best back 4 would be these 2 at centre half, Cunningham at LB and Moloney RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bemmyredjeff Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Thought cunningham was abysmal and apart from one surging run when he was fouled just looked uncomfortable in that position and seemed in a dream during the 1st half. No one seems to have picked up on moores poor anticipation of the first goal, if he'd held his position he should at least have been able to parry or tip over the shot. Couldn't honestly see any positives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't honestly see any positives. You can't fault the keeper for either goal he's belted it from close range high into the roof of the net. He'd have to have reactions like a ninja to save it. Second one was a top quality finish. Probably more luck though hit and hope but it went in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably more luck though hit and hope but it went in Koumas is quality at this level, and I strongly suspect the wind helped his strike - as it clearly did Baldock's.

If he'd stood his ground it would have hit him. I still don't expect him to save it. It was a good finish with power. Many keepers would struggle with it as they would expect him to go low If he went low and Moore stayed still he would get slaughtered on here for getting beat at his near post easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd put much more blame on Flint who dived in and gave their guy a free shot on goal... Perhaps Moore should have stood up more but the finish reminded me a bit of that Giggs goal against David Seaman. Not exactly a massive error.

Alex_BCFC Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 You are right about flint, but moore generally hasn't been over impressive since his arrival. He is an improvement over Parish. Similar shot stopping ability but much better on crosses and commanding the box (apart from the Orient game). Overall not a big area of concern.

sodburyred Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Thought El-Abd had a solid game as did the rest of the deffence. Missing a Cisse sort in front of the back 4 I think. Hopefully Kelly can return soon and be that man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calculus Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 This I can't argue with although Osbourne had a poor game and - unusually - was probably our worst defender in that game. Particularly in the first half, but then again he had JET in front of him for that time who offered no cover or help. Looked much better after the break with Wes on and JET elsewhere. (This is not me knocking JET btw - he'd always be in my team, just not where SC put him in the first half). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
