JoeAman08 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 WTF was that?!? Our front 2 are routinely 30 yards more forward than anyone else. When we win it back neither one of them drop deep to help link. Despite having everyone else behind the ball they are finding massive spaces to exploit. The ref is an absolute moron. This team even gets a sniff of adversity they just shut down completely as footballer. I am done with the Weimann and Martin combo up front. Give me Conway and Semenyo all day. Idc if they have less than 5 goals combined at this level I am certain they’d offer more. I shudder to think what level Weimann would be playing at if he didn’t run like he does. Martin has ability but he is probably, if I am being nice, a L2 level athlete. Some serious adjustments need to be made at HT. Yes they are up for it with their new manager but on the couple times we ended up in their third I felt like they were shaky. We need to get more bodies in the box. COD or Scott need to be at the back post. Benarous and Massengo need to be making runs in there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He states all the correct answers and tells us how he is improving and how his fitness is better and how intends to become a box to box player like his hero Patrick Viera? But really nothing changes, and for all his promise, he will never cut it as a Championship player? He needs shipping out IMHO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Another game where we've conceded due to awful defending, 3 centre backs and we had a 10 foot gap in the middle for the goal, I don't think formation will ever work for us as the spacing of the back three is always pulled apart.

keflav Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Really poor first half from us giving them far too much time and space...

Young too- have a problem in the wide areas. 3 bookings...all pretty cheap. All for kicking the ball away? Should know better.

Sheff Utd were on the same points as us going into this game, if they win this they go midtable, if we win it we go midtable but watching this match so far we look miles away from getting anything. I think we'll survive relegation but only because Barnsley and Peterborough are having an awful season and Derby had the points deduction.

That’s not an overreaction either, he’s just so frustrating to watch. You just want to grab him and shake him. The guy is away with the fairies. I am a big fan. He actually cuts out quite a few passes, mops up crosses from time to time and is one of the few that will get his head up and try to pass forward. That said, he needs to be a bit more energetic and a lot more combative if he wants a long career at this level or higher. He doesn’t need to sprint everywhere like Massengo(who has been chasing the ball everywhere and leaving gaps everywhere for Bakinson and Benarous to try and fill) but he could easily win some 50/50s if he just tried to get there first. And the pulling out and not wanting to make any contact or attempt to tackle is just not how to make a career as a deeper midfielder. For as much as I like him, he won’t make it at his current ability. He needs to add those things and quickly. Reputation as a bottler will come quickly and won’t go away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
