Hinchcliffe is correct why is nobody attacking Hamers set pieces?

I watched Plymouth TV so no feedback.
We have been static and not attacked the ball in both boxes Wilders entire disastrous time back.
This is SURELY Wilders fault regardless of who is the set piece coach.
The clown of last season seen to have done OK from a distance at Brentford proving it
We have barely scored goals but got away defensively re Sooty Moore Anel and Vini having the physique to survive.
Apart from Jack Robinson and improvement just rcently the throw-ins have also been an absolute shambles.
Wilder gets ALL the fundamentals wrong.
For most the quality difference has bailed him out.

What the hell has happened to this team?

I thought Clarke was supposed to be an attacking full back. Nearly every pass he makes goes back.

We absolutely have to win here but again they’re playing like they had bromide in their pre-match tea.

Some urgency please against the worst team in the league.

This is one of many similar comments.
FFS this IS Wilders brain dead tactic 'pass and control' as he phrased it to players FIRST home game of season v QPR - watch 10 minutes in just before 2md goal telling Anel to be what most would see as NEGATIVE and boring and I see as dangerous and self defeating.
Plymouth knew after 15 minutes the game was there to be won.

Slow, slow, across the back, slow, slow, mispass, slow, slow, fall over, slow, slow, pass to keeper,slow, slow......don't get this style at all. WE ARE BETTER THAN THIS

WILDER IS NOT!

 

[bakeblade]

Once again we were awful to watch. This has been the case all season, even when we were winning games by one goal. I hate the style we have. We keep a lot of possession but are miles too slow at going forward. I do not think we have any chance in the play offs and I really hope Wilder is gone soon. The only clas play today came from Jesrun and Wilder subbed him. Hopeless!!!

To say we've won loads of games, it's been a really poor season for entertaining games

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

The next four games Wilder has the opportunity to bring in Holding and drop Robinson..get him sharpened up over those four games and the defence will benefit.

And we might have a chance in the playoffs if he does that.

And yet he took of our best 'top of the pitch' player today

 

[MiserableBlader]

Like Tufty? Ask your dad

Well I despise Wilder as a person and a manager.
I think he's a bullying snide scumbag and a football imbecile.
THE ultimate example of Shankley and his phrase
'football is a simple game, complicated by people who should know better'
But I liked him as a player.
I felt he must have seen Len Badger and tried to emulate him.
I was angry when Basset booted him out for yet another of his Wimbledon mates.

 

[MiserableBlader]

Very lacklustre half in which we didn’t look remotely dangerous. No discernible style of play. We’ve scored a goal because we have some very good individuals and two of them managed to combine. The goal had nothing to do with any “system”. Otherwise, playing it safe with players not prepared to risk playing forwards. A microcosm of our season right there. Glad we’re winning but Christ it’s dull.

Why doesn't everybody see this?
WTF are you all looking?
First half was absolute purgatory apart from the goal.
(I did miss part of the very start losing picturs)
Jesus was shocking until this - nor because of him but because he's stuck on the wrong touchline the right with all the defence back and has no way of going forward and creating.
EVERYTHING that is wrong with this team is beecause of Wilder.

 

[MiserableBlader]

I said not long after he joined, has Wilder seen him play? I mean that seriously too because nothing I have seen suggests to me he had.

Based on what I've read re signing him in the summer he is a Wilder signing.
Hence he is shit.
The bloke is an utter imbecile with players, especially young ones.
eg Hackford over Seriki Arblaster Brookes Iliman Jebbison Osula etc
I don't think Peck and Lankshear arrived to the end of the season after Wilder had stropped off out struggling with his sacks of cash secured first
Anyone else 'think' Hackford is the pick of that collection?

If you want quality at the top end of the pitch then why start Tom Cannon up top on his own. Why start Hamer on the left again instead of central? Why take Rak-Sakyi off when he was the only player doing anything in the final third. Utter drivel and utterly clueless. He's lost the plot if he thinks we were doing the job up until the first goal went in.

 

[1066blade]

Gerrim aht!

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Kinda glad I didn't go now. If I'd had to listen to my peppy mate sing Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life on a 5 hour loop after losing in the 88th minute I would probably have doused myself in petrol and set my self ablaze at the first services.

Spot on add the amount of times burrows overlaps and Hamer ignores him.high crosses put into the box with only COH there.We are never going to score a lot with Cannon upfront.COH just being busy Hamer seldom gets in the box.Peck and Souza don't contribute to goals.Its far too easy for opposition managers to set up against us.Only Rak Sakyi offers us the option has he sticks to the wing but also knows when to get in the box.
