For all the speed MVE has, he seems to being missing a piece of skill to actually get past a player..

Yet when he knocks it and goes he does him. Issue is we have one in the box and 5 of them

Played quite well. So frustrating that Wilson has let us down.

Think saka and Allen both been brilliant as the two amc. Sheaf poor. Eccles hit and miss. Wright's done fine but can imagine people will be on his back.

I hope robins keeps with box till 70th min before switching back to two upfront.

This is the formation for us I've always believed and still do despite current scoreline.

Playing well just need a bit more quality/luck in and around the area.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

It's so frustrating, because clearly we're not complete and utter shit, but our results say we are.

 

[Alkhen]

Thought we played ok, error for the goal is just one of those things.

Wright certainly gets in the right positions which is promising. He just needs to be a bit more positive. If he bags one it would do him a world of good.

Sheafs shooting has been a bit pointless, doesn't seem to be a logical end to our new more patient build up.

Tatsu is a busy fucker and I love it

We just look low on confidence across the team.

 

[mark82]

Definitely should have had a penalty too.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

I would rather we left the ball at the corner flag for the rest of the game than Eccles taking them anymore!

Needs to watch some vids of Jenkinson

 

[shmmeee]

Keeper hasn't made a save has he? It means nothing

Other than thee three saves he's made.

 

[procdoc]

Wright has done ok, made some great runs but we take an eternity releasing the ball. It’s all a bit desperate

When people say "we're shite" just because we're losing, it feels like they don't uderstand that we have an opposition. We're playing against a side who defend very well, they're hard to break down. We're giving it a really good go and have been close 4/5 times. We're not shite

 

[xcraigx]

If we get 1 we'll get 2 or 3. Not out of this at all.

you're expected a remarkably different team to what we displayed at rotheram, although were losing we look so much better, but still not happy.

 

[Deleted member 9744]

Not sure you can accuse Van Ewijk of offering little offensively.

He hasn't a clue. Not vanEwijk, the poster you're responding to.

 

[Jamesimus]

Which?

Which what? He made two saves?! I'm just telling you, after you've said twice "the keeper hasn't made a save", that he has made two saves?!

EDIT - in fact three I think.

He's not shown anything to suggest he's undroppable this season has he. I'd worry about this new keeper if he's not in the net soon.

What's that racket they are playing?!

Who did he save from?

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Allen's passing been good and progressive too. I said ages ago that he and O'Hare seemed to underhit passes, maybe because the training pitches weren't like what we played on. If that changes, that's good all round.

Anyway, I've thought we've been decent. Wright's looked quite sharp too - hope for him yet!

 

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

Wright , I'm afraid, isn't good enough at this level. I'd rather have Simms on. He has a presence and physical strength that wright lacks. Both are far from the finished article but Simms edges it for me.

 

[SkyblueDad]

Amateur goalkeeping. Very unconfident striker. Apart from that we look quite sharp. Allen and Sakamota looking busy and linking well. Van Ewijk and Da Silva better than recent. Eccles has stepped up.
Unfortunately I think WBA will not be as bad second half.

Goalkeeper mistakes happen, first bad one I’ve seen Wilson make for ages.

 

[BlueSkiesForever]

Bar the Wilson howler we’ve actually played pretty decently against a solid team, so far much much better than the Rotherham game. Actually getting our striker into the game for once, some more clinical chances and we’ll be back in this. The last half of the first half has been much better, just need to keep this up and think positive going forward.

 

[Nick]

Now Gus khan the United fan.

 

[shmmeee]

How many of his crosses have found a team mate?

He’s beaten his man, at best, three times all half.

We have no one going front post, this is a valid complaint.

 

[Paxman II]

Wright looks like a bad £8m investment atm.
O'Hare must come on. Godden and Simms must come on. Sacrifice Eccles and two up top.

 

[Nick]

Did you miss the last couple of games?

 

[Jamesimus]

Who did he save from?

Wright, Sakamoto, Allen (can't remember the order)

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Should be 0-0? How?

They didn’t earn the goal we gift wrapped it

I think we have done okay and are definitely still very much in the game.

Again it's the finishing letting us down, but I am convinced it will come.

Hope he proves you wrong. Easy from the stands.

 

[SBT]

The corners stuff has triggered people to an insane degree - if you saw that half and thought corners were our biggest problem then I don’t know how you get through the day without soiling yourself

 

[Nick]

They didn’t earn the goal we gift wrapped it

They put it in the goal.

 

[CCFCBat]

Will we make this our first win from behind in 18 months? Judging from that first half I’m going to say no

Well I wouldn’t expect you to be positive
