With you on that one. They had me at least hoping it was going to be a boring mid-table year...not looking that way as we are currently going.
We are playing the correct style. We can only get better. But yes, our errors and lapses of concentration are painful to watch!
15% of their possession is when their right back takes forever with a throw-in. Scowen off - BOS on with Eze playing central. NOW!
We look ragged and are even making Wigan look good! Very frustrating to be losing a match where nothing significant has happened! Warburton need to get the hair drier out in super duper turbo mode at half time! We can only hope for a better performance in the 2nd half. We need efficiency over style!!!!!!
We’ve been appalling defensively. Very lucky to not be at least 2 down. They’re physical and direct and we have no answer apart from pray it doesn’t go in. Manning is marking the guy who scored at set pieces and he’s about 15 stone. A bit of flair going forward but Eze is wasted on the right. Makes no sense. Wells has no presence whatsoever. Chair doing his best but they’ve coped with it comfortably.
HT 0-1. Worst I've seen this season, 3 subs not enough today. But he should get Wells off 2nd half, he's done nothing, and get Hugill on. BOS for Scowen too, BOS will scare them if nothing else. Lumley having a mare too. Ball has done well, and Pugh at times. Manning may need subbing, he's taken at least 3 nasty bangs.
Relegation in August Team has to be played with the changes until the identity is formed regardless of who we are playing. Did anyone seriously expect us to just make a side that would compete on level terms Give it time This is the Championship son! Oh and it’s August plus we have a mountain of organised teams above us plus three hungry promoted teams saying that Barnsley look poor.
