Red-Robbo Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 So, if you can't be at a game like that, or follow it on the radio, I reckon the next best thing is - as I was - to be in the pub occasionally checking the score in the presence of a "prowed" Gashead, who follows his side so closely he was unaware of their own League Club "difficulties".

Difficult to know if Naismith has had any comms with him, because he looks like he’s tried to fill the near-post gap…in case either Wilson gets skinned and Vyner has to go and leave his man…or to block the low cross? Weimann has watched it all go on too. King was filling in at LCB3 as Atkinson had followed his man short. Lots going on. Probably lots of minor things…and definitely can be improved. I’m sure they’ll be watching that back and at least asking questions like you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t there, so can only go by the stuff on here, media reports etc. If Weimann was a bit deeper both in and out of possession, making it more of a three (AK, HM, AW) then it’s something I’ve gone on about for quite a while. Weimann (and Sykes) has such energy I’m sure he can cover lots of ground, and still link up with the forward line but starting a bit deeper. What a player he is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Heard some of it last night- quite enjoyed it what I heard and watched the highlights just now. Yes Coventry made 8 changes but we made 5 of our own plus of course the continued unavailability of Kalas and Semenyo added to the recent unavailability of James. I thought Massengo as for one of the goals vs Sunderland ran out of midfield with it quite well. Competition for places is always healthy. Was this Wilson's 1st competitive start- how did he do? Nice to see Pring start, two goals will do Conway's confidence some good- Bell off the bench, late assist for Weimann I believe- who took it very well- icing on the cake. Massengo assist? Goal for Wells too. Feels like it was a good performance despite all of the disruption with venue- although that affected both sides albeit us moreso- and hopefully can provide a) A bit of a springboard and b) The compeition for places can see players push each other on a bit- should see Williams and Martin refreshed a bit for Saturday too, two who need their workload managed a bit. Wycombe is a winnable tie too albeit tricky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Just been watching a few highlights on Wyscout (the whole game is pretty much on there but my monthly video allowance is running out), looks like Weimann and Massengo starting positions in basic shape we’re right and left (and advanced) of King. Felt a bit like Holdenball 5122 (3142dm), but not high-flying “eights” like Paterson and Weimann, more conventional midfielders. We will see if it shapes up similarly versus Wigan.

Davefevs Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Just watched the first half. Read reports that Cov were poor, but honestly, we absolutely blew them away in the opening 45. The tempo of our play was fantastic. Pass, control, move it, good movement off the ball. We most definitely made them look poor, they could not cope with us.

I'm starting to wonder if Pearson's solution to fixing lasts season's habit of losing by 1 goal on a shoestring budget is to reduce goals conceded by only a small amount, but to then try and score EVEN MORE goals.
