[Alex Cheeseright]

He started well enough, dropped off the face of the earth last 20 minutes.

Back on earth...nice run

 

[Sheffsteel]

Wrexham look better in possession than us. Some of our fans will defend this performance as well. We look like the non-league team. Exactly like every other week where our priority is smash it clear or loft an aimless ball into the channel. Its not good enough for a team who wants to play in the prem.

Agree......we have some top quality players who can score goals from nothing, we also occasionally put together quality moves
We defend really well, a bit backs to the wall at times but we are very solid.

However regards general play we struggle to put 3 passes together and look to play it long too often.
With the nation watching, it's fair to say that at times we don't look a good team.

I suppose at least we're making it more of a contest for the neutral as Wrexham still have a chance.

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

Lol, Wrexham players falling over left right and centre and Wrexham fans screaming for a penalty every two minutes

 

[The Judge 1889]

Diving caants

 

[Bladey_blade]

Bash and Ozzy are causing us no end of problems, Ozzy wouldn't start for them never mind us

 

[RetfordBlade96]

takes a right dive there

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

McCatee...sloppy, needs to raise his game

 

[Iceybabey]

Nah, we've scored and been poor since.

 

[JayGreen17]

Osborn...not comfortable on this field and i mean field

He’s not even league 1 quality…..

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

He’s not even league 1 quality…..

Probably true

 

[BettingBlade]

Osborn and McAtee have to be subbed at HT minimum. I’d be thinking about bringing Basham off an all. Getting absolutely murdered down that left hand side. All three of them have been weak as piss.

 

[Working Class Hero]

The pitch is shocking but we didn't look like a good side on the ball at all there. We only ever do for 15-20 minutes per game anyway, so we'll probably have a spell of looking half decent at some point.

You do have to wonder how we are where we are in the league though, watching this every week.

Laughable that some of our fans think we are prime arsenal. Need to watch more football. Non league team are giving us a real game. Defensively i cant say much bad about us but fucking hell our decision making and composure on the ball is average to bad.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Get Bogle off too, just in case Hoofinson has them stick an elbow in his face

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Ball is spending many minutes airborn.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Left side piss poor tonight. Right side better. Midfield poor. Defense hardly troubled barring the midfield dropping them in the shit. Winning. Happy.

 

[BettingBlade]

Oh and Linekar and Hughes and Shearer know fuck all about us. I know I shouldnt be surprised but there’s a reason these cunts dont get a gig on Sky. They cant be arsed to do their research about anyone outside the top 6.

 

[The_Wrexham_Cartel]

I thought we did well against a top Championship side. 2 early injuries as well.
An equaliser would make it exciting. Another Blades goal almost finish it

Funny enough i would say going forward we've looked ok.

But defensively from the midfield and defence we've looked decidedly average.

 

[Red Hot Currie]

Out left hand side...... wow. Just wow. And by wow I mean woeful. Terrible!

 

[Northernsoulblade]

Poor performance all round bogle playing like he’s had a smack in the nose left side shite maybe wake up 2nd half credit to Wrexham though

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Our movement off the ball around midfield has been very poor, that’s why we are struggling to string a few passes together.

 

[Blacksea]

Oh and Linekar and Hughes and Shearer know fuck all about us. I know I shouldnt be surprised but there’s a reason these cunts dont get a gig on Sky. They cant be arsed to do their research about anyone outside the top 6.

Hughes and Gabbidon are a disgrace,they're making Wrexham sound like Barcelona.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Can't wait to get into 2nd gear, bang in 2 more and put this to bed early

 

[robbiez666]

We've defended most of the aerial stuff pretty well but we're giving them so many opportunities to chuck the ball in. We're also playing one on one against Mullins which is ridiculous. I feel there's nothing in midfield. Jebbo has been lively but nothing's really linking up. We've been too slow getting forward in numbers. The midfield seems to neither be supporting attacks or helping the defence.

Agree...you've looked OK/ a decent side.

However in recent matches United have long spells of playing in 2nd gear, so in many games we've played, the opposition look decent.
Based on general play think we tend to be poor but we seem to create all the best chances
whilst the opposition never seem to create any chances because although our defence is busy we have a really good defence.

An agricultural side on a freshly ploughed field

 

[Chingo]

Playing like they had a carvery at 2oclock , wake up ffs

 

[biggiesablade]

That fucking munter landlord is on now

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Coulibaly would help a lot

Might as well also move Bash into midfield

Robinson for McAtee
Sachdev for Bogle
Coulibaly for Norwood or Doyle
