I've watched the game again on TV and i have to say our deliveries into the box were not dangerous enough and we didn't win enough second balls and thats where the Cardiff goal came from. Then again i might be talking ******
Definately agree with the second ball thing, although nothing seemed to drop to us too. Thought there were some good balls in but no-one making the right runs or attacking the ball
Re: For all our play on Sunday - change needed at Watford Too much long ball. That was our main approach at Wembley and it failed. Most of it was the ball drifting in with no pace behind it, diagonally or down the centre, and their centre backs lapped everything up easily. Ferenczi had zero impact, KO was more of a handful in spite of his glaring miss. There were hardly any crosses from the bye line, pulled back, which are the most dangerous ones to deal with. Devaney managed such a cross once , which KO ran onto but shot weakly at the keeper. Simon Davey MUST try something different tomorrow at Watford to break our lousy away record. Midfielders need to break forward far more often to support the front two. If we concede, too bad, at least we go to Watford to try and score. I don't want S.D. to go to Watford with a defensive set-up, hoping for a 0-0. I think that kind of approach means more of the same -i.e. defeat.
Re: For all our play on Sunday - change needed at Watford I don't go to many away games but we make chances and just don't take them, then we let one goal in thats it game over we have got to go for it more.
We played well apart from the first 9 minutes Their goal was a defensive error. 6 Barnsley players within heading distance of the ball and everyone stood off. A simple and basic defensive error, absolutely unforgivable. To be honest that error was worse that OddJobs miss!
