Credit where it’s due he’s played well in a couple of recents games by most accounts but to me that is not enough over the course of a full season. I hope we get rid next season.

Hands on Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 What a clusterfuck that was. I thought after Tuesday anyone with half a brain could see how poor Chris O'Grady is. Wrong! Lang injured and on with the 'clusterfuck'. First long ball watched the defender. Second long ball didn't even leave the ground. All he had to do was hold the ball. Not once. A nice flick on the only positive bit of play. Everyone else played their part but Chris O'Grady let us down. We would have been better off taking Lang off and replacing him with no one. Disappointed? You bet two points thrown away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same player who scored a hat-trick against the side now 2nd in the table. He has his uses but playing him up front on his own with no one within 25 yards is not one of them.

fleetwood Blue Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Definately 2 points dropped, the officiating again was absolutely shite aswell (did he really give a freekick against us when the ball hit their lad in the face?)...Not happy but at least we didnt lose which im sure we would have if they had equalised in say the 60th min..As soon as Lang and Baxter went off we lost any hope we had going forward.. Dearnley is still to get match fitness and looked knackered after 50 mins.. I have seen better players in sunday league footy than Benteke.. lets hope Langs knock isnt too bad and he is fine for Bury, i think tuesday will be too soon..

We'd honestly of been better throwing Nepo upfront for the last 20 minutes and bringing Stott on at fullback, Scholes must be cringing watching someone like O'Grady huffing and puffing and ultimately doing fuck all.

Load of bollocks! O’grady over the full season has been a lot better than most. If you put someone like cog on, there has to be someone to feed off him.

Got what we deserved. 4 hours ago, mad4it said: Probably not O’Grady’s best game, but we lost it (again) in midfield , we just can’t hold the ball and defence ends up getting swamped The above comments sum it up for me. It was embarrassing to watch the time wasting and the lack of desire to go for the second goal was baffling. We dropped deeper and continually gave the ball away. At least Scholes has learned the lesson that we cannot hold on to a single goal lead. On to Tuesday night and an improved performance.

OLDHAMADE Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Could have been 4 points from the play-offs with a game in hand, A real sickener today and feels more like a defeat, last chance saloon Tuesday if we have any ambition of extending the season but that's going to be more difficult now. See you all then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Think our lack of strength in depth shows a problem today. Baxter looks like his oldself however he can only last 60-70 minutes Lang is excellent but looks like hes carrying a knock. This squad with Surridge would have a much stronger chance of getting top 7. 6 minutes ago, yarddog73 said: He had Benteke didn't he?

Surridge played his best football with O'Grady next to him. O'grady is now at the stage of his career where he needs someone to play alongside him. He didn't have that today and he was poor. He can't play that role anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got some uses and is better than Urko, but if we're being honest, he's not good enough if we want to be a side in contention to be promoted from this league. All the promotion chasing sides have some form of threat up top, be it a finisher or an effective big man. Time will tell with how Scholes wants to play, but we need a better calibre of player or a more effective option if we want to be top 3/top 7.

fleetwood Blue Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Did anybody else cringe when Hunt kept passing back, that pitch is gonna cause the biggest of fuck ups with it bobbling.. It seems Scholes agrees with others that our most comfortable player on the ball and the man with our most assists is better off at left back, i couldnt imagine Rick Holden being put there back in the day.. Looks like it will be Dearnley and Baxter uptop for the Morecambe game, does anybody know what happened to the lads we got onloan forward from west ham and defender from Forest??
