Taking the knee was a was to help spread the message, while showing support. What would the point be of someone working the average office job taking the knee? Who would they be spreading the message to? Now ask the same question but about footballers who are watched by thousands of people every game. Than ask yourself what issue do you have with a completely non political gesture, supporting equality, that lasts a matter of seconds? I'm not accusing you of anything, just genuinely asking what issue do you have with it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tin Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Two really poor quality sides here. Rowe looks hopeless, not quite sure what Nagy’s doing out on the right and Fam’s done more work in our own box than Wycombe’s. Tremendous strike from Bakinson was the only moment of class.

IAmNick Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 We're so careless with the ball sometimes. Passes are rarely crisp and one poor one gets badly controlled, moved on in an even worse pass, and then the third one is way off target or just lost. We give away possession totally needlessly under even light amounts of pressure way too often in my opinion and it's usually of our own making due to sloppiness. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 1st Half Summary: So diamonds not forever, not even for 45 minutes....NP going with his trusty (???) 4231. Lacking in quality, not helped by pitch, but it took one fine strike from Tyreeq Bakinson - perhaps coupled with good man-management from NP? Massengo tigerish again, if only he'd not slipped at the vital moment inside 5 mins. Bakinson good again, without the goal to add to marked improvement. Nagy got better in his role as the half wore on, but please, please make a tackle. Sessegnon doing well on his first start as a RB for City (other starts RWB or LB). As a team we took 30+ minutes to get Lansbury screening in front of Ikpeazu, and then we start to see Kalas win ball. In fact it was TK's won header that led to the goal, albeit after Stewart miscued his clearance. Wells frustrating, Diedhiou just so on his heels, resembling Bambi on ice. A waste of a shirt. Rowe finding it a struggle on the ball, but doing his defensive stuff well enough. Lansbury showing some bits of quality, but perhaps too keen to play first time....take a touch son. Need to improve second half, or WW will get a spell at some point. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree it’s a personal decision. I’ve no problem with Kalas not taking it. But those who think it should end deny others their right. Its not dependent on whether there are 1000 or 10000 spectators, but clearly if you’re making a statement then it’s not really going to achieve much in front of zero spectators - which is where this began in relation to other people’s work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 1 minute ago, JonDolman said: Defended okay mainly. Our left looks very vulnerable. Poor defensively and nothing going forward down that side. Right side a lot more solid with Sessegnon and Nagy in front of him. Nagy not been great in forward areas but at least Sessegnon can sprint up and past him to support. Combos John. Nagy narrower than AS or SP have played it, guess what? room for the RB to overlap. Simple stuff!!!! Bakinson been class again. We look like we might do something when he gets it. Some like him and Massengo need better around them, especially in front of them. so, agree Occasionally we move it well but then it only takes one who isn't on that technically good level to mess it up! Wells having a poor game and Fam taking the knocks but hold up play not much better than we've been seeing for some time. Fam again allowing their CBs too many uncontested headers. Does my head in. Thinking of getting my boots back out Would like to see Semenyo and possibly Janneh on for Wells and Fam on 60 odd minutes. Conway for Fam for me.

My main problem is the left side. Right side looked very solid so far and occasionally looks decent going forward, though didn't happen much. he is at times, but knows when to come narrow to create room for SS. Antoine just stays on the line....unless he's dribbling - frustrating....and easy to defend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
