[Blacksea]

McBurnie will get his goal this half so we need 2 to get anything.

 

[Pintor75]

Whoever comes off in midfield we need people going forwards and committing them, maybe Barry on the left move Gus into middle, more likely they get another and he brings a defender on

 

[harrry1990s]

There’s no press in the middle. That’s the problem. Sorry, one of the problems.
Then what’s the point of pressing if you have nothing in attack.

 

[Esteban Cambiasso]

Matos needs to come off just useless

 

[harrry1990s]

And referees hate us

 

[Sheffsteel]

Played reasonably well/ OK. Should be 0-0, neither team have really threatened to score.

My issue is that we just don’t look like scoring and yet another half where we’ve not had a single shot on target.
Also there is a school of thought….if you play well but still lose….then there’s serious problems.

Thankfully, there’s still plenty of the season left for Wilder to rectify it.

 

[Bladedog]

We don't get bodies in the box or have shots on target...it's fuckin abysmal.

 

[SLB]

I think it’s essential with squad and tactics we have that we try and have a formation with 2 strikers, as we are just not an attacking threat with 1 up top.

Something needs to change.

That's why I wanted Lampard. They've scored 25 already.

 

[The Crab]

He could try motivating them to not do that.

Whatever faults he may have, motivation hasn’t been one of them.

I don’t think anyone can get a tune out of this lot, collectively they clock out mentally as soon as we go a goal down.

I genuinely have no idea how this gets turned around.

It’s like Monty Pythons dead parrot

 

[Keen Blade]

We signed Matos based on what exactly?

Recruitment policy

 

[drblade]

That's why I wanted Lampard. They've scored 25 already.

Why would Lampard have come to us?

 

[drblade]

Recruitment policy

panic.

 

[LS5 Blade]

Nearly 10 minutes into 2nd half and nothing has changed!

This is just as bad as Selles, we are boring and shit to watch

 

[BangorBlade]

NOT FCKING CANNON

 

[Pintor75]

Cannon coming on, is Ings injured?

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Nearly 10 minutes into 2nd half and nothing has changed!

This is just as bad as Selles, we are boring and shit to watch

It's been like this for nearly 12 months, it's just we scraped games like this last year

 

[Keen Blade]

BRING ON THE CANNON

It's stuck in the mud , far from the battle

 

[Pintor75]

Played reasonably well/ OK. Should be 0-0, neither team have really threatened to score.

My issue is that we just don’t look like scoring and yet another half where we’ve not had a single shot on target.
Also there is a school of thought….if you play well but still lose….then there’s serious problems.

[Jan Age]

It’s going to be a long season and wilder would do well to pick a team based on mentality and work rate (which will still be difficult)

When it’s easy and we have the ball we look good but as soon as we lose it and have to track back or put in any sort of real effort we look league 1.

As a result we will go a goal or more behind in 90% of the season and we don’t score enough to turn that round

 

[Sheffsteel]

Why would Lampard have come to us?

When he was out of work….we’d have been an attractive club for him
But agree….now he’s at Coventry….he was never going to leave them (a club on the up) for us.

 

[toledo]

As I sit here watching the game, I'm getting mentally drained watching this crap.

We are incapable of doing anything positive or creative.

What the heck is our game plan today and what is the tactical plan to score goals. We lack of skills all over the field.

 

[Keen Blade]

Peck has been fine. Matos is the one needs changing. But a bigger problem is Hamer resting in the middle of the pitch when were are on the break. Campbell gets the ball out wide and no one running through the centre.

Hamer decided in the summer to coast through the rest of his career as opposed to pulling his tripe out with a club that might test his ambition

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Campbell supposed to be running on to balls but does a 3 point turn when it's hit into the box ffs

 

[SLB]

Why would Lampard have come to us?

I wanted it, I didn't say he did.

 

[drblade]

We just cannot create chances.

 

[Thrice]

I'll say it, bringing back Wilder was a huge mistake. This team needed fresh ideas after last season, it's just that Selles was the wrong choice.

 

[Keen Blade]

Cannon coming on, is Ings injured?

If so , Ings is the joke.
If not , Cannon is the joke.
And the manager is the comedian.

 

[drblade]

I'll say it, bringing back Wilder was a huge mistake. This team needed fresh ideas after last season, it's just that Selles was the wrong choice.

There is a lot of truth in this.

 

[LS5 Blade]

We neither look like scoring, nor look like keeping teams from scoring.

You would expect one or the other.

We look knackered after 20 minutes every game, lack of tactics and have luxury players like ohare who I presume thinks we get points for 10 flick ons a game!

How the flying fuck did we end up here!

 

[Nah den]

Unpopular opinion no doubt but O'Hare isn't good enough. Too small and weak, slow and very little output.
