I don’t understand how anyone can say he wasn’t. Doesn’t matter if it was his first game or not, a shit performance is a shit performance. I’ll be the first to come on here next week and praise him if he plays well, but the topic of this thread is today’s game, and today he was fucking shite! I thought he had a poor game. I think "beyond terrible" is an over-reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately we don’t have the 8/10 attacker to win us a game we’ve played below par in. And we don’t have the 8/10 defender (on the pitch) to stop shitty late goals. We’ll win some of those type games so it’s not all doom and gloom but there’s nothing much so far to suggest a big upturn in form from recent seasons. One positive is that a lot of these players are young so could progress from 6/10 given time. 6/10 Bloody wish we did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disjointed Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Looks like I made the right desicion today, I had the game available to watch, but chose the racing and the Tour de France. 2 years ago I would have been chomping at the bit for the 1st league game of the season. Its going to be a long way back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latics22 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I'm obviously in a minority here, but I thought hamer had a good game. Got forward defended ok. Jambutty is fucking shit, defo I mo signing. Rowe held the ball up well, delaney was a constant threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet according to the match report he was involved in our two best attacking moves: Harry Kewell’s side created a fantastic opportunity in the 61st minute as Keillor-Dunn played a lovely weighted through ball in behind to Conor McAleny. The attacker couldn’t quite control the pass which took him wide but from an angle, he struck low and hard at goal, but Lawrence Vigouroux denied him with his legs. Latics went in search of the winner and came close when Keillor-Dunn had the vision to play Zak Dearnley through down the right and the striker pulled his pass back to Danny Rowe inside the penalty box. Rowe turned and shoot at goal, but it went straight at the goalkeeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always carries himself like that. Fage did OK. Can see Rowe and Dearnley in for Grant and Dunn next game. Wheater needs be at CB and Jombati at RB instead of Hamer. BUT! Only the first league game so not writing us off yet Agree with pretty much all of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunn can’t pass a ball People keep saying that but I would argue that he he is not quick, not good in the air , not pariculsrly mobile, not good when the opposition have the ball, not a great holder up of the ball. He has a tremendous shot and is a free kick specialist but is in danger of becoming very overrated in our desire for him to be something we hoped he might be.....just my opinion and I may be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Invariably, they waste it. He offers very good close control and creates his own space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex_pat Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 After watching the highlights and reading all the comments on here. I am glad I cancelled my ifollow subscription.

Clearly it was an assessment of one match regarding Dunn. He was poor yesterday. As mentioned by others, Rowe has contributed well in other games but in relation to yesterday's game, he wasn't given the ball enough as I stated.

tGWB Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Plain facts are that Orient had more posession than us, more attempts on goal than us and scored the only goal of the game and won the 3pts Orient finished 17th last season and will likely finish in a similar position this season Appreciate its only one game but our squad isnt bursting with talent and goals is it Its vital we get at least 4pts from the Stevenage and Crawley games because October looks quite daunting with away games at Colchester Bolton and Salford, hopefully a chance for points at home v Morecambe and Carlisle but after what was on show yesterday, Boundary Park isnt going to be a fortress is it Just maybe, recruiting your players from non league football isnt going to change our fortunes around after all Who would have thought it . . . .
