International Break (2 Viewers)

[Liquid Gold]

We've got two weeks off now to get players fit and get them watching film and learning from their mistakes.

If we come back from it still making the same errors and giving away numerous pointless goals then I fear the writing will be on the wall already.

I've always thought we'll stay up by getting to grips with the league and pushing on when we get used to the quality but the problem isn't the opposition it's us doing it to ourselves. We'd be conceding the same goals in League Two and we're so far off from being good enough at the moment.

I think the break will do us a favour tbh

 

[ccfcmad1]

Come at the right time, get players fit time on training pitches regroup and go again

No need to panic, the last 3 games have seen a great improvement in terms of matching our opposition, and creating chances.
2 penalties have cost us getting results away from home against decent teams (one was premier league last year)

We have a left back playing right back, and we were missing out top scorer today along with last seasons player of the year.

Hopefully the break will have everyone available again, and give MR time to work on a few things.

It's been frustrating, but keep the faith everyone.

That gives me the panic though. I thought we'd have bad results while we adjusted then we'd improve once we got to grips.

It seems like we have quality to match teams but still can't stop them putting away loads of goals, that to me is a massive worry.

Don’t agree at all

Don’t agree at all

1. passing the ball to a striker clean though
2. Defender back heeling it into the goal
3. Free header in the middle at the edge of the 6 yard box
4. throwing your hands in the air in the box and giving away a pen

Meat and drink to Sunday league strikers.

heading the ball from 25 yards ? - surely meat and drink for a Sunday league keeper ?

mcallums goal v reading was woeful keeping, again meat and drink

players make mistakes. Better and more expensive players at a higher levels make less of them

So your point is we give away piece of piss goals and our goals are lucky? Shit, we're fucked then.

 

[no_loyalty]

The break will do us good, and the first game back is favourable.

Going into a break after losing 2 games in the manor we did isn’t great you want to bounce back against a team we look like we are competing against

 

[speedie87]

Who we got away on int break just ostigard? Macfadzean in to replace him then re Brum, should be more his sort of game up against the physical juke

Mcfadz surley comes in for the brum game rose can’t keep his place he’s become a liability

My point is Other teams are just as poor with some issues

Big 2 weeks. Recent seasons when we have a week off I plan in my head who needs the rest, who gets fitter, who caan recover and then the next game comes and we've had 3 fucking injuries in training.

We need a breather from games but intensity in training. We need

Godden, Shipley, Dabo to recover from injuries.

Mccallum, walker, Kelly to build up fitness. Dacosta and Jobello two others who could we get involved now

Rests for the players will bbe good too.

With Norway playing on thd Wednesday and us playing on Friday I doubt if Leo will be included

 

[Legia Sky Blue]

With Norway playing on thd Wednesday and us playing on Friday I doubt if Leo will be included

Depends whether he actually plays though, as I don't think he is a starter for Norway.

 

[Bristol sky blue]

What's going on with Pask? Is he injured or just out of favour?

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Pask isn’t good enough for the championship

 

[Grendel]

Pask isn’t good enough for the championship

He has never actually played in the position he was signed for - if he’s not even a consideration it’s an odd signing

 

[Bristol sky blue]

Pask at least has the pace to recover if he makes a mistake, don't think he would be any worse than Rose at CB at the moment.
Rose was excellent last year but seems panicky and lacking confidence at the moment.
For me, Ostigard's ability in the air means he is worth keeping in the side currently.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

What's going on with Pask? Is he injured or just out of favour?

It is a similar situation to Ponticelli and Allassani where we keep being told they’re good enough but the manager disagrees/ finds ways to not play them.

He has played 21 league games by the age of 23

 

[Skybluebeliever]

Is it the under 21 or national team he has been selected for ?
