king canary 7,605 Posted August 9, 2019 We look good going forward but at this level we'll be punished for little errors more often than we were last season- that second goal came from Trybull not knowing where the ball was and a lucky bounce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dean Coneys boots 1,400 Posted August 9, 2019 We have looked good going forward but defence is being cut to shreds. It’s going to be six or seven at this rate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep - every bit of this. From what we've seen so far, we'll create plenty of chances and take some points off several teams. Lots of possession, just a shame about the defensive frailty.

king canary 7,605 Posted August 9, 2019 For me this game is showing just why we need Amadou in the team quickly- Trybull and McLean are just cut through too easily by players running at them. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alex_ncfc 662 Posted August 9, 2019 I think it's time to park the bus, even if Farke says that's not our way - can't afford to get absolutely tonked on the first game of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amadou and Roberts the choice for me. Trybull has looked like a rabbit in the headlights tonight and looks like he thinks he has the same amount of time on the ball he had last year. I'm sure they will acclimatise, lets hope this game speeds up that process. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,605 Posted August 9, 2019 Weird and frustrating game. We've not been too bad, looked decent going forward but just made things difficult for ourselves at the back. One shanked clearance, one unlucky bounce and one set piece and suddenly we're on our way to and absolute hiding. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously hypothetical but with a full strength line up (Amadou in for Trybull, Klose in for Hanley) I don't think we're 3-0 down at this point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted August 9, 2019 Hanley won't be in the team as soon as Zimmerman is fit, Farmann may well replace Krul, and we bought Amadao for reason, so let's just get through this game and hopefully score one or two ourselves. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
