Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theproblem

Which I really agree with.

I think that mid field has been the problem all season. Some games great big holes appear, they can't protect the defence, or service our striker/s.

GOALS GOALS GOALS that's what we need simple

Quite possibly the case. They were bad under Hill, but once we were positive, went forward with more drive and purpose, they played much better. Im guessing part of the problem at the moment is we are having a lot of the ball, but aren't turning them into plenty of goal scoring chances.

From listening to him speak hes not happy with the midfield both ways.

Some of our players just don't go back and defend. Cywka on Saturday. I think thats what hes talking about in the pre match interview.

 

Re: Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theprob

The whole team is the problem. They don't function as one, and certainly don't over a full 90 minutes.

Perkins and Dawson.

Sometimes it's the case that players do go back and defend, but they aren't defensively minded enough to read the game and get in the right positions. You can coach it, but some are just better than others. Dunno if that's the case with our lot mind you.

I don't think we can blame just 1 area of the pitch. The whole team have been Poor all season

"the Danny Wilson"

 

Re: Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theprob

btw, looks like Hassell is fit!

 

Re: Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theprob

I agree, but we need a lot more passion and desire, a willingness to work hard for your team mates, which seems to be severely lacking is recent months. I don't know why that would be the case, but Danny has to sort this out. His team talk on the face of it is simple, as it was last season. Either you fight and stay up, or go out with a whimper and we go down. Now maybe some aren't putting the effort in, now why would that be?

They aren't bothered? - well the club pays their wages so they should be bothered.
They know they are out of contract in the summer and they can get a better one elsewhere in the Championship? - well not on this season offering for most of them so they need to start displaying a bit more ability on the pitch

Can you work Paddy into this somehow Hemsy?

 

Re: Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theprob

You've used his full name. I presume you like him right now because you are in agreement with him, or should I say he agrees with you, obviously.

 

Re: Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theprob

There's only one THE Danny Wilson I'll be singing that tomorrow.

 

Re: Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theprob

Danny is partially right in that on a shitness scale our defence don't rate as highly as our midfield and our strikers but that isn't necessarily an endorsement of their collective or individual ability.

 

Re: Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theprob

I have thought the midfield has been the problem all along. Perkins and Dawson are both similar style of players and do not provide the correct defensive work to support the centre backs. Non of the "flair" players who are meant to be creating the opportunities put a shift in for a full match.
The defence will always be leaking goals without the defensive midfield cover we have needed for many years. The strikers get minimal support from midfield in terms of chances and additional bodies in the box to take defenders away.

Spot on the money HT, our back four isn't the problem, its the feckers on the other teams that keep attacking us

 

Re: Listening tothe Danny Wilson and he says the back Four aren't necessarily theprob

Getting rid of the defender who has played more games than any other in the back four over the last two and a half seasons, on a free suggests he does.
