Well, where do I start!</p> Another poor performance today from almost the whole team, and it is safe to say that the bubbles finally burst. The papers after the Cardiff / Bristol games came out praising the team, saying players were off to pastures new....... Well safe to say that won't be happening.</p> What's gone wrong, where does the fault lie? The international break acn't surely be the reason for three bad games, that can't change a winning team to a team that doesn't even get shots on goal.</p> My views</p> Odejayi needs to be dropped. The guy is out of his depth at the moment. Personally I think he lacks the confidence and belief. Couldn't believe it when Mostto went off today instead of him</p> Mostto either not adapting to the English game OR the players don't play to his hidden qualities that Davey seems to rave about.</p> Three wingers in the squad, yet not one of the them doing anything for the last few games. JCR is obvious what he's going to do, Devaney proving to be better coming off the bench.</p> Biggest concern though.................... Howard. Since the press about him his games dropped to another level, something I never thought would happen.</p> The players need to pick themselves up now. The next two games Vs Preston and Blackpool are massive. These two games could shapre our season up.</p> Davey needs to look at the loan market and see what strikers are available.</p> My next team</p> Muller</p> Bruma, Nytanga, Foster, Kozluk</p> JCR, Howard, Togwell, Devaney</p> Christensen, LOAN SIGNING (Mostto)</p>
Togwell His normal self really. Got stuck in, but couldn't pass to anything that resembled a red shirt.
We Deserved Nothing......... but a two goal cushion flattered them. They were nothing special and the home fans knew it themselves. 2 points from 12 is a worrying figure though (N) (N) (N)
Disagree I thought the team were up for it but the strikers were all to blame. They didn't hold it up, didn't make runs when the midfield were on the ball. It was like playing with nine men. I thought that everyone worked hard and there was a lot more passion than the hull game.
RE: Disagree I'm wih you tt. I thought Sousa and Nyatanga were back on form, Foster had a much better game and Kozluk did ok. Midfield worked hard but when you have two statues playing up front it's just asking too much. Only when Kim came on did we ever remotely look like scoring.
Exactly Christensen has to start the next game, he's got something to prove and Odejayi needs to be told he isn't guaranteed a place.
I may have got this wrong but Were the strikers to blame for the goals we conceded yesterday? Bad defending and goalkeeping for both goals. Muller did not even try to get to the corner for the second goal, He is supposed to be a good at commanding his area, yet he cant get near a cross into the six yard box. Bad marking also to blame. So to say we lost because of the forwards is a little misleading, agreed they were garbage but so were the defence at times.
RE: I may have got this wrong but When the strikers offer no threat there is going to be more pressure on our defence. Their was little on ours.
but it was the defenders job to defend against their attacks they did not do that, that is why we lost, to win we would have had to score 3 goals away from home, dont happen very often. I am not saying that our strikers are any good, just that they were not to blame for us conceding 2 goals yesterday. I actually think the strikers we have at the club at present are the worst for a good few years, but I have said that for quite a while and been shot at over it.
We had 4 chances Howard header Odejayi one on one Foster shot Odejayi header All 4 should've hit the back of the net.
Ah but 2 of those were from a striker! who looks like he has never even played up front before, whats happened to the fox in the box we signed ? Mostto his name was , not seen him get into many foxy positions since we signed him.
