    Not Doing The Basics!

    I created a separate post on Jennings last night if you are a central defensive midfielder you need to keep your position as the full backs go forward. Their second he made a stupid attempt to get the ball in their half he was bypassed easily and they had a free run to our box with little...

    Jennings I need convincing

    Jennings may be improving all the time but at age 28 he should be at his peak. He was a Thorne purchase, Bailey is a robbins purchase expect Bailey to be played in preference if we can get him on a permanent.

    Jennings I need convincing

    Imo isn't fast enough to play the lone defensive central midfielder especially in a midfield including sheffers and baker as they are also fairly slow. Jennings plus bailey may work with only 1 upfront but he was badly exposed tonight and there was some poor decision making.

    Jennings I need convincing

    Many on here rate him I don't. Their second goal he made suicidal decision went for a ball he had no chance of getting they broke past him and scored. He can't shoot gave up afew opportunities in thee second hal2f to shoot which most other players would have hada shot and his miss in the first...

    Madine

    I liked him when he was on loan, was only a youngster and was playing in a CC team. I genuinely believe we need a bit of physical presence to get out of this league. Concede too many from corners and don't score enough from set pieces. That strike rate is impressive.

    9,500 tickets sold JPT Crewe

    It is possible to put crew fans in the corner and have us behind the goal as well. I expect a ccfc sell out

    Leon Clarke

    Lc was subject to some aimless punts against a centre half built to defend those types of situations. He does worry and occupy their defence. 2 goals in 4 starts is still good

    Player Ratings

    Personally the jury is still out with fleck did well to get that shot away in the first half which was well saved. Do not think he is strong enough and was too easily dispossessed. His passing was average easy passes good passes champagne passes when there were easy options. But worked a great...

    Brian Howard on Soccer AM

    played 100 games since leaving Barnsley and scored 5 goal, is 30 next week and a shortar$e. we have lots of small midfielders already sheffers fleck jennngs, we need a bit more pace / muscle as we are still IMO vulnerable to being outmuscled in midfield. Not for me living off past glories

    Carlisle Match Thread

    I don't rate Clarke as a defender seems to make significant defensive errors regularly, he is good in possession and looks a skilful player but IMO struggles with the basics of defending . Also seems to have an ego that needs managing, when it comes to defending prefer Cyrus when it comes to...

    Carlisle Match Thread

    A midfield 5 of moose, sheffers, baker, fleck and jennings is highly effective when we have the ball but not so when they have it, we seem very lightweight in the tackle and slow to get back. Fleck does not deserve a start, people keep talking of his potential but surely he has to deliver at...

    Carl baker

    A big critic of Baker in the past currently tucking into large helpings of humble pie. As for Sheffers though the last 15 mins before he was subbed he was dreadful wasting so many opportunities to put in a quality cross.

    Jennings getting some stick for a poor performance today

    Not a big fan of Doyles but contributed far more in terms of goals running with the ball and jennings is no Lloyd, lloyd was a far more imposing player.

    Jennings getting some stick for a poor performance today

    CWR stated he played poorly and they cover all games. Think Jennings lacks physical presence for that DM role, tends to be there at the breakdown of the play but can be brushed off the ball. Although not expected to be a creator in midfield, if ever called upon would struggle to create any chances.

    Jennings getting some stick for a poor performance today

    The defensive midfielder role can often be a thankless task doing a lot of work that goes unnoticed but with Jennings just don't rate him rarely seems to impose himself and is probably the worst passer at the club. A central midfield of connor bailey moussa has more pace and skill.
