cityexile Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Meh. Battled, most likely a game we lose last year against a Preston side that created the clearer chances, but we might have nicked it too.

We are all frustrated that we haven't got that home win that is missing but it's going to take a while to get this squad up to speed in terms of consistency so any points we pick up in the meantime have to be taken and move on until it gets better. First clean sheet this season. Not a great result but 100% would have lost that a few months ago. Not one to rave about and not one to lose your shit over.

I'm not expecting a top 6 finish, but do hope to see more home wins so a point against Preston is a tad disappointing. Hopefully we can beat Luton and get this duck off our back.

It's about patience imo then progression and you can see from some (definitely not all that's for sure) of the football we are playing that we are heading in some sort of direction now.

Numero Uno Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 3 minutes ago, JonDolman said: It was a very tough game. Preston were very sharp and strong defensively, very compact. I think Weimann and Martin have been class so far this season but not too much of a problem today for the Preston defence. I think tactically they were causing us problems. I still feel that Massengo central with Semenyo wide right might give us a bit more mobility in both areas of the pitch. But also Scott already looks so good, I was disappointed not to see him come on last 20. Wells did well though wide left. Forced some corners and gave us some fresh legs and pace. Pring's legs seem to go after an hour or so. I actually thought it was an entertaining 0-0. Probably a fair result, maybe they edged it. I thought Swansea game was a better performance but I think Preston are the more difficult team to play against. Decent assessment of the game. You can spot the posters who think longer term and those who literally judge us a Brilliant or Absolute Shite from week to week depending on the result.
