They battered us 0-1. For 91 mins come on mate

If you that that was a good performance then I don’t think there’s much left to discuss.

Didn’t say that, I said he changed formation to give us a chance.if your gonna have a discussion don’t make things up,

 

[shmmeee]

They battered us 0-1. For 91 mins come on mate, back 5 worked, it was the right decision, couldn’t have got Raphael into that team, and even if we did go 433 sakamoto was in front of him

Yes?

You said “it worked”.

it didn’t.

 

[quinn1971]

You said “it worked”.

it didn’t.

It worked, it gave us a chance, you should really read what people say if your going to reply,

 

[quinn1971]

Yes?

Yes?

And what are you trying to prove with that we were 1-0 up after 91 mins, if assante could hit a barn door probably 2-0 I think the formation was working, can’t make it any simpler than that

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

To be clear Norwich didn’t even have a striker and scored twice in stoppage time. ‘It worked’ my arse

I don’t want to be harsh or start rowing, so let’s just agree to profoundly disagree.

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

From the Telegraph apparently.
Robins to Stoke ?

must be true then!

Mark was on a fixed term contract until 2027 I believe, so if we (the club) decided to terminate early we would have had to pay him off - we can’t simply put him on garden leave and avoid that… and certainly can’t sack a manager and then get paid compensation when they join another club, or else every club in the world would do the same

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

That he’d be playing striker with a fully fit squad. He only plays striker when we play two up front.

It’s a new regime pal. Lampard will have his own ideas and seems to view him as a striker.

Again, EMC wasn’t in form the last time Haji played. Lampard will start both of them, so unless EMC is playing RW, Haji isn’t playing LW.

To be clearer, neither did we, another one who reply’s before they read, I said “ we changed formation to give us a BETTER chance of winning and it worked for 91 mins,

It has been reported in several places that we got compensation whenever he got a new job.

 

[quinn1971]

We got battered all game but apart from that it worked

Not another one

I mean I don’t have a Telegraph subscription so haven’t read the story but that’s where it came from.

 

[Grendel]

You strangely seemed offline until we lost?

 

[usskyblue]

Granted, we made it a contest in the first half.

Second half we offered next to nothing as we conceded way too much possession, sat too deep and were unable to hold the ball up to relieve the pressure.

The thing that’s most damning in that game was; despite being 0-1 up on 90 minutes, it really wasn’t a surprise they equalized.. or that they won it in time added on. It was a fucking shameful second half performance.

 

[ccfc1234]

We have some tough games coming up. Lampard needs to win some games or the dissenting voices will get louder. King has made a huge call and needs to back his agenda for change up with money.

CM and old head pro CB needed ASAP

Yet, we should’ve went 2-0 up…

I completely disagree that it was shameful. In fact, it was an archetypal away performance that has done us over a few times this season. They had 5 big chances and 3 of those were in the one goal mouth scramble caused by Allen’s mishap.

We mostly defended well, the equaliser was a peach and the second was a lucky finish despite Lati letting Sainz down the wing.

It’s the games like this that really exposes just how behind we are in midfield. Norwich could beat our press, we couldn’t beat there's and that’s the story of this season and last season.

When we had Hamer, we had a midfielder that could run the game, Eccles, Torp and Sheaf show glimpses here and there but don’t do against there’s better teams in this division. It’s getting boring bringing up Hamer every week but it’s obvious that’s the single most important area we need to improve on.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

To be clearer, neither did we

That’s cruel towards BTA

Very true. And at the risk of inflaming the individuals who get very triggered by anyone saying as it is, it was as bad as anything that’s come before. Apart from Portsmouth.

Really? The performance was identical to our playoff clash in Feb 2024. We actually had a best team out that too (bar Sheaf).

Strangely, the narrative is that we ‘battered’ Norwich last year - no we didn’t!

doesn’t make it correct though

Wouldn't waste your breath. All he does is copies whoever he thinks will like him most. He has no clue

 

[shmmeee]

Not sure repeating it deserves the response you gave though like I’d just invented it for fun.

Me ?

wasn’t meant to come across as a confrontational response, but if you’re angling for an apology then I apologise

Im just sensitive and need a cuddle right now. Apology acceoted

No the weirdo you were replying to.

He has fuck all clue about what he can copy off somebody else.

‘We should’ve gone 2-0 up’ is a tired and moot argument. We got pummeled in the second half and eventually caved because nothing was done to relieve the pressure. The game came to an inevitable end. It was shameful because we bottled it.

Oh, makes sense now

I will try and answer this without upsetting anybody


I think a team can only cope with being under so much pressure in a game and more often than not if we approach games like we did at Norwich other teams will take their chances and we will lose more often than not

 

[Warwickhunt]

To be clear Norwich didn’t even have a striker and scored twice in stoppage time. ‘It worked’ my arse

One was a worldly strike and the other a result of a foul on Latti at 90 mins I was feeling comfortable and wanting them to do some sh1thousery but we as usual too nice.

 

[covcity4life]

Be careful mate. When you argue with one of the agenda crew you argue with them all.

Like a pack of feral animals they are hunting down anyone who loves ccfc
