The ball needs passing around more quickly.

I’m not sure what the solution is other than that tbh!

 

[MalcSB]

Tackles made 0

Made 1 tackle which was unsuccessful.

If PAFC have done their homework they’ll see we can’t cope with the low block. They’ll be safe and sound shutting up shop now.

They have played really well.

We were well in control, but Plymouth were so well organised, they just let us play the lines from left to right and back again and we really struggled to get in behind them or get to the bylines.

Plymouth are a very big physical side and we are getting outmuscled a lot of the time.

 

[Major Tom]

We really do struggle against deep line, we need a plan B

 

[Ashdown]

Sakamoto is being missed here, the entire game again is bypassing him. Not sure if its his fault but he’s playing no part.

The ball needs passing around more quickly.

We need to be more direct and get ellis fucking simms to actually hold the ball up , Plymouth are happy with us passing it infront of them

 

[Covkid1968#]

We will win this 4-2

Just can see it… but amazing if we can. They are just bloody good at shutting up shop

 

[Hobo]

76% possession - crikey

But nowhere where it causes Plymouth a problem. That's why statistics are wank without some form of context.

 

[Alkhen]

I really try and give players the benefit of the doubt but Collins just doesn't seem at the races. Granted MvE & Simms were at fault for allowing the attacks but he has to do better.surely. One through him and one near post.

Is Wilson fit? He can't be a worse option at this point can he?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Bring in a witch doctor to cure Dovin’s ACL

 

[Jamesimus]

I’d be bringing Sheaf on for Allen. As good as Dasilva has been recently I’d leave Bidwell on for now.

 

[FergieTheFinisher]

Both soft goals from our point of view.

Collins should have done better but Lati exposed several times and Simms should have done better on their second.

hopefully gives us a kick up the arse for the second half.

 

[Grendel]

Sakamoto has had 10 touches , what exactly is our game plan away from home ? Absolute shit again

We are actually 8th in the last 6 away form table. It’s the last 4 we’ve struggled in - we need a draw

 

[Blind-Faith]

How Collins has made it as a professional footballer I’ll never know, somebody, somewhere, has made the decision to offer him a contract, to pay him money, to be a goalkeeper.

He doesn’t even worry me as a goalkeeper, if a shot comes in, I just expect it to go in.

76% possession means fuck all, if that possession is just our CBs passing it to each other and then to Grimes and then back again. It’s so fucking boring to watch

 

[Sick Boy]

Plymouth are another team to add to 'the list.'

 

[Jamesimus]

Bring in a witch doctor to cure Dovin’s ACL

Personally feel like thats the injury that will prevent us from playoff success.

 

[Hincha]

Said it for a while we need to go to a back 5 away from home and make it more of a battle - that is how we kept winning away from home during our amazing run

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

As shit as Collins is… first goal Simms doesn’t pick the man up for the cross and the 2nd goal was shit from MVE trying to control it.

 

[Jamesimus]

The list of teams we do incredible comeback wins against?

 

[Cally Fedora]

Arse wipe of a first half. I simply cannot believe Collins has done it again. He cannot stop the ball when it has any semblance of power. He’s racking up the points cost and at the end it will have been enough to get a play off spot

 

[Major Tom]

Sakamoto is being missed here, the entire game again is bypassing him. Not sure if its his fault but he’s playing no part.

No outlet to him from MVE or Rudi

 

[Hobo]

So many players go missing away from home. We’ve been bullied and that’s the difference, they’ve wanted it more

They don't go missing. We struggle to get players on the ball. We struggle with certain tactics against us.

 

[quinn1971]

We’ll still get something but we need to be a bit more clever, Allen should be rolling round on the floor screaming, not chasing after their player,

 

[Evo1883]

Weve made 279 passes to their 79 , they are happy with what we are doing

 

[Nick]

All well and good blaming Simms for the first but we had everybody back and their player had about 5 acres to himself.

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

2 of Simms/Wright/Saka need to drop deeper at a time. Just standing there and waiting for the ball is doing nothing.

Move it quicker and try and break the lines. Can't expect Rudi to do everything.

They'll sit back and let us play it in front of them all day long. We're playing right into their hands.

To be winning clearly in possession but losing the game and looking the poorer team, then it’s a big, sobering problem.

 

[chiefdave]

Let's hope Lampard has sorted it at half time and it doesn't descend into a repeat of Portmouth away.

 

[Robinshio]

We’ve twice come back to win from 2-0 down against these. Roll on number 3

 

[fernandopartridge]

He's just a passenger away from home and this system doesn't work against any real intensity

 

[Essexrobbie]

Allen has to roll around there and it's a red. Not 'street wise' enough.

100% Allens a fighter and too professional. How many players have we seen roll around a dozen times with that challenge. Clearly a red, maybe he'd get one if the decision is over ruled but that wont help us now.

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Yeah great idea , limit our attacking options against a side sitting back

 

[PVA]

I'm not sure I've ever disliked a player as much as Collins.

He is unbelievably shit. He lets in such basic goals and it's not just now and then, it's fucking relentless.

I don't understand how he keeps getting picked.

 

[covboy9]

Every shot goes in and out striker is a donkey

hope frank gave them a rocket
