[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Just one bit of lazy defending undoes a reasonable first 30 minutes.
I really don't think Campbell is made out for a bottom of the league scrap

 

[pleh_blade]

Just had to double check Matos was definitely playing. Like playing with 10 men.

 

[Champagneblade]

We don’t deserve that

Been the best team by a mile.

Incredibly unlucky to hit the inside of the post and come out then theirs takes a massive deflection.

Typical.

 

[71Blade]

Its clear as day one up front doesn't work Campbell may as well be sat with me

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Drop Ohare or Gus for Ings

O'Hare has little end product.

 

[toledo]

I have the US feed and I honestly can count on one hand how many times Peck and Matos have been mentioned... NO MIDFIELD Chris!!!!!!

 

[JHaber]

Not deserved, but not sure how we keep 9 players behind the ball, 3 centre backs but we still look like conceding, and ultimately do. Wing backs are a part of that - they are getting it wide and flooding the box. Not worried about the counter at all.

When we decide to get players forward and not have 9 behind the ball we have a threat. Unfortunately this is largely following a corner.l or throw than open play.

 

[LS5 Blade]

Played well enough but as a post above calls out the one up front just doesn't work.

Unfortunately the cluster fuck off a transfer window means can't get a target man until January unless we get someone like Bamford in.

2nd half get two up front and we have a chance!

 

[Pintor75]

We can get something out of this, they're poor, but scored their only chance, need 2 up top, come on!

 

[54yrblade]

Give him 70 minutes tops, he might well be

 

[Barnette]

It's such a hard watch....what exactly is Wilder trying to achieve? No attack ...

It's not the Wilder way. We are stuck with this

 

[toledo]

We need to play the ball through the channels... its back to last year, back, side, back, side and then give it up...

PIck up the speed, move into space, be agrresive going forward, run your balls off, and be creative.

 

[drblade]

McCallum and Matos are poor.

Agree. Time after time I can see players not moving off the ball as well. Static.

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Issue is we have Campbell running the channel and the rest of the team just stand still.

The lack of ambition on the ball is embarrassing.

Exactly

 

[Peaktrade]

I’d like to see T Davies replacing Peck and Matos replaced with another striker up top oh and McCal replaced too

 

[Pintor75]

Need Davies on for Peck second half

 

[jono_t2000]

Until we drop Peck , we are never going to progress.

 

[71Blade]

Need Davies on for Peck second half

I'd say on for Matos

 

[utd4ever]

We don’t deserve that

we do. Our attacking play is shocking so chances of us scoring is Zero. When it’s like that the opposition will always grab a goal out of nowhere.

Wilder masterclass

 

[Hollinsend]

Matos is much worse than Peck today

 

[71Blade]

And the regular half time stat of 0 shots on target 4 shots 0 on target we truly are woefully shit

 

[LS5 Blade]

Interesting Sky commentators saying same as all of us about Campbell being isolated.

A successful manager of over 20 years must have a plan B/C surely or did he have a knock of the head tactics wise around Christmas last year?

 

[SRBlade]

We signed Matos based on what exactly?

 

[FriethBlade]

Big half time for Wilder. We are behind so he cant possibly not bring some more forward thinking players on. Campbell is desperately lacking support whilst at the same time we have 5 or 6 players sat back on the half way line

 

[b1ade4life]

BRING ON THE CANNON

 

[Nagima]

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.

Wilder has never had a plan b or c when ever he has managed us that's what lead to him been sacked the first time around and still nothing has changed don't know how people can't see this

 

[HarryHaslam]

How does Peck get digged out as usual even when there is Matos on the pitch, baffling. We may need more from Peck but he’s miles better than Matos, Peck 32 Passes and 3 Tackles, Matos 21 Passes and 1 Tackles. But let’s get Peck off instead of the statue playing next to him.
