I notice that we had 14 shots compared to 6 for Crawley. I know that doesn’t tell the whole story but we had enough chances to win that game, or certainly draw it. Kewell can’t put the ball in the net for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably played on his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are not enough players with 200 games behind them who know what to do in every type of situation because they've been there before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disjointed Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Anyone surprised? I haven't got the heart to be bothered by it. My interest may return once Abdallah and his cronies are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris15Arm Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Second half was best I've seen us this season (not a high bar I know). Lawler does not fill me with confidence at all. Badan, pierrgianni and jombati won everythin on floor and air. Hamer could have stopped their third 2 or 3 times. How hes attracted interest i do not know. Whelan class above but should have buried last min. Leeds kid came in to it and him and whelan ran that half. Fage came on and is improving every game, I wish his chance came on his right foot! Blackwood looks like he could b a player! Rowe and mcaleny didn't do much but did what strikers are supposed to do and score. Management terrible as even at 3-1 there was no change in system or style at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from that Whelan was excellent, by far the best of the recruits, would be even better in a good side. I think we'd take Dino, Missilou, Sylla, Maouche and Nepomucimo right now.

steveecky Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Here's my take on the season so far Lawlor ok, as good as most in the division Hamer good in the air but doesn't stop crosses , poor passer and crosser of the ball. Jombati and Pidge - a reasonable combination win headers, Jombati surpisingly athletic Borthwick Jackson safety first full back offers little going forward Badan ok offers a bit more the CBJ going forward DKD Lightweight and poor footballing intelligence Whelan and McCalmont both very tidy but can they provide the spine in L2 Grant - so slow but can produce odd flashes Rowe - decent shadow striker with a good eye but a bit one paced McEleny may score a few but can't hold the ball up at all, needs a big fella up with him and that isn't what we have Blackwood - nice cameo, we will see over time Fage a trier, but not much more, could develop yet Garrity - slow, Blackpool realised their mistake and found a mug to take him Team as a whole - not much composure, everything done at a pace that outstrips their ability. Kewell - serial failure, likely to fail again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Tic Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 This club is literally dying.

Someone who can lead by example, putting his foot into a tackle, and being able to pick out a pass. Surely there’s somebody out there somewhere!!
