Fallowfields team to Penetrate the PNE Defenence @ Deepdale

[Big Hitter]

Whoever plays- and I think we have to stay with the winning team to start- we need to press PNE hard. They have won 1 game from 9- so not exactly flying. Khadra and Brewster on midway thro' second half and give them a roasting.

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Why drop him when you’re winning & he dictates the way we’ve played? Just for bites as per usual

This game for example he isn’t playing bad but we aren’t controlling the game IMO

Doyle can out a foot in more than Norwood and berge can control the game

I’m not saying he is useless he isn’t just some games he doesn’t suit like today

When he is on it he is great but today PNE are on top and you could say the same for Swansea away

We beat Swansea but it wasn’t convincing at all same goes for today

 

[Tom Bott]

Rest McBurnie before the international break ???

Then he scores...

Billy now on but he's past it so he won't score, or will he...

 

[Antonb]

I think the 2nd half performance was so much better, and we deserved it in the end

Wait until you see the stats, how many tackles he won, times he broke play up. 7/10 for me today, nothing spectacular but controlled & dictated play at times

 

[Nightsweats]

Completely agree. There are times where he gets stuck right in and can be an integral component of us going forward. Then there's times he's like a fucking traffic cone, not reading the game and pointing for others to do the spadework because he's ten or fifteen metres out of the game. Then there's the times he is just a component in non-productive passing across the backline side to side until the opposition smell blood and he gets pounced upon. What is missing is a component which makes him keep hold of the ball whilst moving forward with it at his feet. Doyle does it and Fleck used to try until he ran up against opposition players who would force him to turn his back. I hear all about these 'stats' which many use as a battering ram and as 'proof' of his worth but it all amounts to nowt when he coughs up possession in key areas and suddenly we are transiting from promising attack to desperate defence.

Regardless of improved performances recently, I am still not won back over. There's no doubt that five seasons ago he was pretty damn decent and the first half season in the PL up to lockdown. But for me he is still a liability, one for which doesn't allow him to be first on the team sheet and undroppable.

I genuinely don't get the "You can't constructively criticise
- a player wearing a red and white shirt.
-the manager of players wearing red and white shirts.
- the catering at the stadium where players wear red and white shirts.
-watering the pitch 5 minutes before KO when it's been a Tsunami for the previous week.

In short there are a large number of supporters who decry criticism as disloyal nay treasonous.
I call it the ability to see beyond the blind love a mother has for its new born.

It isn't a negative trait. It's because the person wants better for his team/club and is capable of seeing pure blind faith is actually damaging and counter productive.
The second you accept 99% you're done. In life and in football.

To finish on a high I am very mush hoping to eat humble pie re McBurnie and will be very happy to so do.
Just need Rhian to get "on it".

If we only get 99 % of our available points Ill be one happy bunny

of course theres a place for criticism , but we can reign it in a bit when we sit on top

criticise when we blow a 2 goal lead or gift some stupid goal
but a player making 65 passes and 4 not getting there being told hes off his game is counter productive

Noone said he was off his game yesterday. The point is about his inherent weaknesses which are as obvious as the nose on your face. Dosen't mean his strengths aren't recognised.

Who is this bloke Noone and why was he off his game yesterday?

Think Herman’s Hermits, from memory.

Nightsweats says there wasn't any Norwood off his game so there is no why.

[bonobo]

Berge didn't and doesn't control the game. He has other qualities. And Norwood made endless interceptions as usual, more than either Doyle or Berge would have made.

A Ban? For what?
