Kanadyan Kanary 121 Posted January 12, 2019 We are weak on our left side of defence. Lewis returning from injury, Hernandez is weak (defensively) and Vrancic is not really a defensive midfielder. A serious challenge to our tactics today.. Trybull or Thompson might be better than Vrancic here to provide some cover to our left side. Alternatively Klose on and put Godfrey into the defensive left midifield role.

Disco Dales Jockstrap 1,898 Posted January 12, 2019 We can't get any kind of rhythm to our play at the mo; we need to get our foot on the ball for a few minutes, deny them possession. OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Making Plans 940 Posted January 12, 2019 Sounds like we can only get better. And of course WBA may well be shooting their bolt early early doors. Hang on to half time, reorganise, regroup and go for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samwam27 532 Posted January 12, 2019 Nice to see our leaky defence concede so early. Says something for playing two strikers. Both have scored 13+ goals this season.  We've got to sure up the defence if we have any chance of staying in this promotion battle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Disco Dales Jockstrap 1,898 Posted January 12, 2019 Is Krul aiming for a world record for how many times he can kick the ball out of play? OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted January 12, 2019 Vrancic having one of his good pass bad pass days. Cantwell needs to push on a bit quicker. Pukki plays a ball in the box and he is only jogging. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't think Cantwell will provide any better cover because he will always look to come inside. Needs a tactical rethink IMO; its just too easy. They look dangerous everytime they attack.

kick it off 1,956 Posted January 12, 2019 At the game. Not our best showing. Previously benn supportive of Krul. Becoming incrrasing difficult. Hes a ****ing liability. Had enough of his kamikaze antics. New keeper needed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
