Players leaving

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Did we play like a few players know they’re leaving? Or were we just shite? Or were Bristol that good?

 

[FMBlade1]

Bristol weren't that good, they should have scored 7 or 8.

 

[Northernsoulblade]

We should have as well

 

[FMBlade1]

We should have as well

Really? How many clear cut chances did we create and miss?

Yes we had some shots of target and they defended/saved them well but none of them 'should' have gone in.

 

[The Hobott]

Any player worth his salt will be calling is agent and asking him to get me out of here lol

Watch that back

Thier keeper blocked about 3 from point blank range. He had a quality game and a we also had Couple flash past the post.

The difference was they were clinical and we weren’t and we had some pathetic defensive performances.

We could’ve scored 4 goals the first half.

So?

How does their keeper having a good game mean we should have scored more?

It they were Gordon Banks-style ones I'd concede your point but they weren't.

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

The cloggers thing is funny because we used to get called that a lot when we used to win a lot.

I mean I don’t know

You asked how many clear cut chance did we had. I’ve pointed out we had load and their keeper had a great game.

I don’t know what you were watching if you didn’t see the amount of clear cut attempts we had

 

[Bladesthorpe]

Bristol were very good, much to strong, fit and fast for us. They left us for dead so many times.

By clear cut I meant how many were sitters rather than attempts?

The sort where you'd say the player concerned should have scored?

I don’t think they were good it was us being dogcrap that middle three was crap at burton away and was today no balance brooks going backwards as usual oh well up the blades

He’s stopped about 3 from basically point blank range.

On another day we score a couple of those and the result look that bad

On the balance of play and possession. That could have been 3/2 either way. We didn’t deserve to win because we played crap defensively but it wasn’t a 4-1 performance

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

They were organised, shape was excellent and from their new manager that’s what we should’ve expected. We had so many openings and they snuffed us. Sometimes lucky but on the whole, they did well.

Ok then how many more chances did Bristol City miss?

None of the shots we had were good enough to go in apart from the goal.

On another day it could have been 7-1 to them if the penalty was given and if they had squared it at the end etc.

I think we are watching the game differently

Yes obviously if every chance Bristol had went in and we continued to miss ours it would have been about 7-1 .

I’ll simply leave this at

We had more than 70% possession and
We created the same number of big chances
We scored 1 goal off 2.3 xG
Bristol scored 4 of 1.3
We had 14 corners they had 3

 

[VictoryBlade]

So possession means, nothing!

The stats tell a story, but lack the visual confirmation of how bad our defending was.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Bristol weren't that good, they should have scored 7 or 8.

If they should have scored 7 then we should have scored 14.

Our XG was double there’s.

On another day we win that quite comfortably.

Thought out handicap was RND and Peck.

100%

We defended and set up so badly we gave up any hope of a result. We were shit in defence

So shit I question how a supposed detail oriented manager couldn’t see that that defence gave us no chance and didn’t set up differently until hopefully we get defensive reinforcements in. He’s not going to last long if that continues and he doesn’t fix it

I’m just pointing out we DID also carry a threat going forward

 

[ancientblade]

i thought bindon was ok rnd a bombscare but its not his fault he should be nowhere near the first team our new owners need to get their cheque books out and quick we need at least 3 possibly 4 new signings and hamer worried me today he played like a player who knows hes off to me

Can’t play Hamer, Peck and COH in a central 3 it’s so so so weak it kills you in defensive transition and defensively none of them are strong or good at positioning themselves. He needs to decide which one is best going forward and then get some tall workers into CM to carry the attacking mid

If I ignore the top 10% of the attached it looks like a decent game

 

[redandwhitewizard]

Also could have conceded at least another 3 towards the end if not for poor choices from their players.

 

[RecordBreakers]

We've had the spine of the team ripped out, hamer will be gone before the end of the window. COH playing champ man an it doesn't work in real life.

Defenders required but we knew that before the match.

 

['Doc' Pace my hero]

It reminded me of the home game last season against Portsmouth,we were undone over and over again.The difference is we found a way to win,today we would have lost that game.

RND, bless him, he is to a footballer now what Katie price is to natural beauty

Was like watching u12’s football where all the midfield follow the ball when we go forward and leave a 40yd gap to the back 4
