HertsCanary93 222 Posted March 2, 2019 While I assume everyone has seen Nelson's taunting of their fans... Readings winner is a great watch. Absolutely pathetic defending, particularly from their hero Chambers. His questioning of his colleagues mentality after the game at CR doesn't look so inspiring after that performance...

Capt. Pants 4,195 Posted March 2, 2019 They can't score gilt edge chances and defensively they are a shambles. Seriously, they need to start worrying if there are 3 worse teams in L1! Nelson's goal was very well taken. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icecream Snow 761 Posted March 2, 2019 When the window opened in January, they were 10 points adrift of 21st, and they're blaming Lambert because he couldn't attract better players. I doubt players were queuing up to sign for a relegated team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I found one thread where one delusional halfwit is convinced their main problem is they ‘don’t cheat enough’, citing that Reading were expert at it today. No, seriously mate, watch again your team’s defending for both goals, a bit of time wasting really isn’t going to help you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,635 Posted March 2, 2019 The weird thing is that they aren’t being hammered in games to any real extent. For them, losing (or, often, not winning) seems to have just become a really bad habit that they can’t break. But if you can’t take your chances and leak at the other end, that’s what you get....

Indeed, from the highlights I’ve seen they are not playing absolute stinkers- they do seem to be able to create chances but lack any striking quality whatsoever to convert them. And the defending is just laughable, they always have a couple of errors or ****-ups in them and get punished. Lambert’s team ethos and motivation cannot compensate when all he has is poor quality in such vital positions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K Lo 221 Posted March 2, 2019 trying to be unbiased, I think their midfield is fairly good, as mentioned, they just don't have a few people up front that can put away passes and their defence is ineffective. I'm quite sure that Lambert displayed some technical nouse when he was at Norwich. He certainly seemed to know what he was doing, even if he didn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surfer 1,547 Posted March 2, 2019 Funny thing is that although their defense is REALLY bad - the worst in the league, and often comedy gold - on average they are only conceding 0.4 goals a game more than we are - 14 additional goals over 35 games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surfer 1,547 Posted March 2, 2019 Too true - time for a bounce back win next week. They also still have to play Sheff U and Leeds. Hopefully being relegated already by then will allow them to relax and play football and grab a consolation point or three. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure how Team Farke managed to get those two in position at Ip5w1ch but they have both earned their performance bonus so far. Particularly enjoyed Lambert's description of their play as "relentless" last week, and universal praise today following their abject 2-1 defeat to Reading. Some of their supporters are still falling for it, which is unbelievable, but if they let him Mr Lambert can pretty much secure League Two football for them by Christmas. Agent Oliveira also earning his salary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
