Something about Shipley and Robins. Same as every time we lose...

[Brighton Sky Blue]

We’ve been brilliant

Best stuff all season apparently

 

[cc84cov]

Don’t worry we will be ok we play lovely stuff

 

[fernandopartridge]

2 0 down, and still only 1 up front. Robins lacks ideas and is not good enough, tactically, in the Championship

Have a day off, the issue is the standard of our players. End of.

 

[Greggs]

I want to turn off but equally I've paid so I'll stick it out.

How did I know he would make that sub? Obvious because it was the most stupid option.

so the highlight is robbins shit sub making?

 

[mark82]

The guy was knackered

Not played much this season. Makes sense, just frustrating we can't try to have a go.

 

[clint van damme]

couldn't do much better than hit the target from that angle

Jesus Ernie what's that beast in your new profile picture?!

 

[LilleSkyBlue]

What the hell was that pass about? Didn't they read my earlier post (775) about this insane passing it round the back and infield?

 

[cc84cov]

The guy was knackered

Put Baka and max on then ?

 

[Skyblue_CP]

Oh wow, how pointless. GO TWO UP TOP, clueless.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

How shit is Olise’s hair

 

[Magwitch]

Pretty sure that player should not have been infront of the wall

Why ?

 

[larry_david]

The funny thing is Ostigard is far more an attacking threat than biamou of Bakayoko in the air when attacking the opposition - yet gets criticised for not scoring

The funny thing is we're in January and our only set play is a floater back post to ostigard. Which has worked once

 

[Grendel]

He needs to go back to a flat back 4 and get Hyam out the team

 

[ccfc92]

Victor not fit enough. But surely Shipley had to be replaced

I'm not being funny, he's not exactly done a huge amount.

 

[shmmeee]

Shipley and James won’t finish 90 mins so there’s at least two subs to look forward to.
What an exciting 87th minute it will be.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

We’ve been brilliant

You’re unbelievable

 

[Evo1883]

I'm going to hazard a guess that they're rather worried about their front 4 and don't want to take the risk of losing a man from midfield to open us right up and concede 4 or 5

But we don't do common sense here, let's go 226

As well as tactical decisions (or lack of).

 

[Johnnythespider]

It'll be Baka next to appease the 2 up front fans, what a strange substitution to make.

 

[mark82]

Best stuff all season apparently

Don't think anyone said that did they?

 

[jordan210]

Why ?

I thought they changed the rules for free kicks. That both attacking and defenders had to be 10 yards aswell as attacker cant be in wall

 

[ccfc92]

Only need to hit target Wilson won’t get close bless him

Just rewatched the 2nd n looked like a deflection?

He's doing okay, except the shit show in front of him.

As I said, we are defending being 2-0 down.

It's embarrassing.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Replay of their second embarrassing too. Defence don’t bother, no midfielders on the edge of the box to close down and Wilson just fell over sort of near it.

 

[Esoterica]

This Reading commentator is what it would be like if we had Martin Winch instead of Clive. Just chatting about absolute shit.

 

[Dirk Turpin]

Not going to jump on the bash Shipley bandwagon but he's been an absolute passenger tonight. If we're playing one up top then we need the players in the AM slots to perform. He's had half as many touches as O'Hare as the stats stand and only a few more than Gyokeres and he played up front on his own. Why bring max on and leave Shipley on?!?!

 

[Somerset Sky Blue]

It is almost like playing with 10 men when he’s involved. His link up play, passing and positional awareness is atrocious

Harsh, though I agree he has struggled with the step up (like a few others).
Personally, more concerned about our defence who have so many assists for the opposition. Playing around at the back was fine in league one where our players were technically some of the best, fit and the opposition strikers weren't rapid and lethal.
Repeatedly this year, we are gifting soft passes, penalties and we are just not getting away with it.
We don't have the goal threat (s) to get away with it.

What’s the point of hanging on to a 2-0 loss and creating nothing

 

[Chip Batch]

Baka is absolutely wank.

 

[Dickie]

We can make 4 more

 

[cc84cov]

The guy was knackered

If he wasn’t fully fit shouldn’t of started either

 

[covcity4life]

6th place away was never the best opportunity for points but it's 65th min and it doesn't seem hes trying to get back in it. that is frustrating

When we lose it will not be end of world but it's a sport and we should try to win not leave Shipley on

 

[cc84cov]

Baka is absolutely wank.

He’s an option. At 2 down
