You realise we aren’t playing 4 at the back?

We are playing a defensive system with far deeper wing backs and I’d guess have far less possession than we had when we were shipping goals every week. Text robins and tell him to be more exciting if you want to lose every week and be patted on the head by the opposition admiring our plucky performance

Allen has played well, why would we sub him at half time

Walker needs support up front. We need to take a player off to replace him with someone else. Who else would you recommend ?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

That counter was sexy shame Hamer couldn’t get it on target

 

[Grendel]

But you'd have to sacrifice a midfield player against one of the top possession teams in the country - potentially suicidal.
Keep it tight like we generally have so far, can go 2 up top later on if needed.

Spot on - great first half

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Cardiff 3 - 2 v Blues.

Could have sworn it was Walker but I stand corrected

O'Hare, much smaller. Different boots

 

[Grendel]

No you aren't allowed to say that.

oh dear

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

There is a huge confirmation bias against him, he's good at making angles for us to pass through the middle, as is Sheaf. Neither rated by the SBT hordes

Sheaf commits the cardinal sin of putting in one or two dodgy passes per game which is what most people remember. Aside from that he’s usually pretty solid.

got to agree, be great to have two up top but we're struggling a bit in the middle as it is.

I wouldn’t change it at all at the min

 

[covmark]

Allen has been excellent

Let's not go overboard.

Don’t know what I was seeing. Fair dos

 

[Evo1883]

Hahaha

Effectively true in all fairness... The wing backs are deeper more often today allowing Huddersfield to make strides due to a narrow midfield ... Wing backs need to press higher imo

 

[Grendel]

Feck me Pipa is good .. going forward anyways

Puts Dabo and his value into perspective

Suspect that’s more down to the glaring absence of Kelly

Effectively true in all fairness... The wing backs are deeper more often today allowing Huddersfield to make strides due to a narrow midfield before... Wing backs need to press higher imo

He’s got no idea bless him

It’s embarrassing how clueless most fans are to be honest

G is calling this a strength after previously writing off 5 at the back as suicide. Just funny watching the mental gymnastics

 

[Otis]

Yeah looking ok.

Yup and Huddersfield look a decent side, especially Pipa the right back. He looks very decent.

Counter attacking is fine, we just need to make sure we make the chances count. Huddersfield are definitely more physical than us and are winning too many second balls, but I think we have done okay so far.

The funny thing is he doesn't do that and he'll be called sideways Sheaf.

 

[Paxman II]

Decent performance so far but no bite in final third. Hudders' reasonable but no very threatening unless we give away the chances - as we did do! they pack midfield so difficult to bring on a striker. We need to get Dabo and Mccallum in play more. can't see Hudders' energy keeping up second half which may see us start getting more opportunities.

Be a hell of a player with more aggression, which I think is what's slightly holding him back, been a bit underwhelming last couple matches... But I can see the ability

Car working ok tonight?

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

The main danger is if our midfield get pushed back and sit too close to the defence. One deflection and it can cause problems. Hamer. O'Hare and McCallum most likely to lead our breakaways. MR won't change it I don;t think (unless we go behind) but Walker needs some support'

 

[covmark]

Think we can nick a 1-0 here

We've got much more than that to offer. Hopefully we lift it for the second half

Based on what ? We’ve hardly had a kick we’ve got an isolated striker and we can’t get near them

Both sides most threatening on the counter

literally you need to look at your comments - we’d have had zero chance against a team like this a few weeks ago - we now aren’t being thrashed every week and go into the last stages of games with a chance - compare this half to the half against Watford when we looked like conceding every two minutes but you’d rate that as a better 45 minutes

The only one calling for a sacking after 10 games

You predicted a win didn't you?
