Poor from more than just him though. The lad who put it back in was left in acres. Should’ve been someone on him. Johnson should get tearing them a new one now
sorry lads, going against popular opinion here i think but that was not a good half...one little bit of quality from geads the rest of the time headless chickens. ref not done too bad but should have had a card out earlier for them, and wtf is it with all those silly little 'kicking the ball away a few yards' every time something goes against them, pointless at 0-0 in a first half. we need some better quality passing and we can take these, haway the second half!!
Overall we have had no real control of the game. It has been frustrating to watch. Wyke has no help. Two midfielders are deep when we have it and no composure when we do. Jones is not having an impact and looks out of sorts. Jones off, Leadbitter on, 4-3-3 and lets get control of the ball and play with a bit more cleverness.
Took them 27 seconds to foul Jones. And he’s been fouled 6 times. Their centre forward has committed 4 or 5 too.
Not happy. These are terrible. We are turning the ball over too much. Not controlling the tempo of the game. They have had more opportunities for me. We need to be doing so so much better. It's win or bust for me tonight.
I don't know which of their players it was but one of them did a good job stopping Sanderson getting out to the lad on the back post. Clever play that. Power (? Maybe) just stopped and watched Sanderson being blocked though.
That was a penalty has well, a kick in the head is any day. diamond started well but faded, and when is Wyke going to score we need changes in the 2nd half.
To get in the top two you have to be playing well. This side does not play well enough on a regular basis for that
Agreed, none of our central midfielders are anywhere near good enough. It’s by far the weakest area of the squad.
Thats the problem we never really control and close down the game. Far too open. LJ really needs to star looking at a solid midfield platform to build off.
