Canary Wundaboy 1,359 Posted November 8, 2019 Pukki looks shot of confidence. Weak and tame shots totally at odds with the start of the season. His link up play and dropping off, runs etc have been great but end product lacking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tetteys Jig 830 Posted November 8, 2019 look shot of confidence. Taking 1 touch too many constantly and hesitant on the ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,297 Posted November 8, 2019 Trybull & McClean are far too deep both not good enough for this level, if Amadou is fit he needs to be bought on for Trybull, move Tettey into midfield and go for the win. Steipermann has to get into the game or bring on Cantwell to unlock this white defence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Il Pirata 249 Posted November 8, 2019 Cantwell straight out on the pitch to warm up, on his own, coming on at the break? For McLean, perhaps? That doesn't really inspire, does it?Ā Ā Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hepphep 175 Posted November 8, 2019 Shame about the goal, but otherwise it looks more like Farkeball again. Also Pukki is not totally isolated as more players push forward. Onel has been really good and Stiepi has also really stepped up. McLean provides nice aerial threat in the box as well. Excited for 2nd half 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steipermann has to get into the game or bring on Cantwell to unlock this white defence. I'm sorry, but moving Tettey into midfield is hardly going for the win. I'd rather Amadou came on for Mclean and played in his preferred position.Ā Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crafty Canary 495 Posted November 8, 2019 Over the whole first half we could claim to have been the better footballing side. Unfortunately we donāt actually look like scoring, has Foster had to make a serious save, and we continue to gift suicidal chances that get punished. Should we lose this one I really canāt see us finishing outside the bottom three and probably last. Ā However if we can keep our youngsters then there is hope of a quick return.

Yellow Green Army 237 Posted November 8, 2019 I agree with Indy. Trybull and McClean getting outclassed and losing the midfield battle. Get on top of that and we will win this match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Wundaboy 1,359 Posted November 8, 2019 My concern is that 2nd half Watford will try to contain Hernandez and suddenly weāll have our most creative outlet stifled. We donāt seem to be posing any threat down the right at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Moss 2,165 Posted November 8, 2019 Onel and Kenny in particular have been absolutely brilliant. And I noticed after Emi gave the ball away leading to the goal, Kenny was straight on Emi, in a very positive āDonāt let your head drop son!ā way - that passion and spirit really impressed me. I know we can play better than this, but thereās definitely the signs of old out there tonight - we do not deserve to lose this from what Iāve seen on the first half.

king canary 7,603 Posted November 8, 2019 First half that sums up why we need a change in tactics longer term. We look poor when playing our short passing in defence because teams know they can easily press us into errors. Even the worst Premier League teams are better at pressing than anyone in the championship and they don't fear what happens if we beat their press enough to sit off us. Conversely we've looked bright when we've been a bit more direct, which doesn't have to mean long punts to a target man. When we've moved the ball to our forwards quickly, carried it with pace and ran at them we've turned Watford, created spaces and made chances. More of that and we've got a chance.Ā 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
