SweeperKeeper Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 For me the bigger issue is midfield. Nobody putting a tackle in, nobody keeping the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Five consecutive games where we've failed to score in the first half. Basically relying to get a result in 45 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handsy Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Somebody should tell mccalmont which way we are supposed to be playing so many backward passes from a central midfield player Is just putting us under so much pressure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No central midfielders Too many players who think the dirty work isn't their job. We can't have McAlmont, Keillor-Dunn and McAleny all thinking they don't have to get in there and win the ball. One maybe, but three is a luxury we can't afford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been shocking. McAlmont at least trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, it's not just Ntambwe's job. We can have one player standing waiting for the ball, not three. McCalmont has been static and watched Port Vale run past him for 45 minutes. Lots of nice 3 yard passes backwards, but he's a luxury we can't afford in that position if he never tries to make a tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flemboy Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Last 5 minutes got in the game.Hopefully can continue this in the second half. Glad that card happy slaphead ref not in it.Piers our best player so far.Very scrappy game up to now.Our ex Worrall creating problems down our left.All these injuries are showing how lightweight we are. We normally play better on large pitches like Vale.Bam doing his best up front but on a soft booking. I'll settle for a point after that first half.

Frankies6 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Snatch a 1-0 win here but should 3 goals behin,I'd rather have had the direct play from an HK team than this alot of backward passing heaping pressure on our flimsy back line, Pidge man of the match so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris15Arm Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 This is the most blatant case of sticking people wherever to fit his formation. He's riskin losing fans already. This is all curles doing. No drive due to hilssner being put at left back, a position he cant play. Badan a left back put at centre back, a position he cant play. No holding it in midfield because hilssner and bahamboula are out of position. Ntwambe doesn't know where to turn. Mccalmont thinks backwards first. Theyre all way too deep and hitting it over the head of bahamboula. Mcaleny and dkd trying to do flicks because they dont want to go backwards but because everyone is deep there's none there. Tactics are a joke. Pierrgianni literally holding this clean sheet on his own as badan and diarra look like they're trying to play full back too. Curle has come in and got it badly wrong. Obviously hasn't seen us play this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweeperKeeper Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Hilssner trying to make things happen but having a shocker. Ntambwe chasing shadows. McAleny and Keillor-Dunn might as well be not on the pitch. Bahamboula making the best of trying to take on six Vale players alone. Back 5 keeping us in it by the skin of our teeth, Piergianni in particular doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
