Thought Barnsley were in control until the own goal. Not sure what happened but it looked like it was a massive judge of error from Davies who I felt played well tonight other that that. Thought even though it wasn't working out well for Moncur we looked good as a team when he was on the field. Bree and Watkins worked well. I was really pleased with Bree tonight. Thought he looked really good, absolute athlete with ball at feett. For me with Brashaw, he wants to be the lead striker rather than doing the AM link role to feet which Winnall did last season. When Watkins goes upfront he's the one to drop for me and it was something I noticed on Saturday too. Does Hourihane and Scowen work together? Hammill fustrated again. Kent, think PH could/should try him AM. Think that might be the better role for him. Think outwide it's easier to defend against a player him him.
From my viewpoint Davies seemed to try to punch instead of catch and it came off the top of his gloves. At 1-1 I was worried Kent would have to take a penalty and he'd pass to Hammill instead of shooting.
Too much punching and palming for me when its far easier to catch. Would drop Davies for Setdi and hev a word wi his coach as well.
I thought we were awful and had no shape at all. Hourihane and Screen were extremely poor and playing far far too deep and in each other's pockets which meant that concur also had to drop deep. Watkins spent most of the game on the wing but actually a lot of it coming back and inside to cover for the ineffectiveness of the two midfield clones. One up front simply doesn't work for Barnsley, I don't know why that is because other clubs manage it quite well but for us it doesn't work. Thought Bree and white were poor too for the majority of the match they had opportunities to get forward but instead sat back.
