cambscanary 0 Posted February 25, 2009 I know we''re supposed to defend as a team and attack as a team so its not just the back 5''s fault but the facts say it allConceded more than EVERY team in the league (bar Charlton and Watford)Scored more than everyone up to QPR in 11th position (again bar Watford strangely enough).Says it all really, we can''t defend for sh!te. if we could we''d be safe as houses!!! I know its pointless saying this sort of thing but why is it we can''t defend, why do we concede sooooooooooooo many stupid goals!!! everyone moans at us missing too many chances but the facts say otherwise!!CambsCanary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CDMullins 436 Posted February 25, 2009 Not really! if we didnt miss chances we''d win 3-2 in stead of drawing or losing! I dont care if we conceed 5 every game! aslong as we score 6! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary02 III 0 Posted February 25, 2009 I think that as well as the defence we need to defend a lot better as a team. Considering we are supposedly playing at the moment with two defensive midfielders to protect the centre halves the path to goal seems remarkably easy to traverse for the opposition.

The Fish Seller 0 Posted February 25, 2009 It is impossible to concede a goal when the ball is in the opponents penalty area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue 0 Posted February 25, 2009 Or..... it''s because you score lots of goals that you also conceed. Look at the ''for'' and ''agianst'' of Wolves!It''s the balance you have to get right. I don''t think any team in the Championship, with the possible exception maybe of Reading, knows collectively when to attack and when to defend..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZLF 273 Posted February 26, 2009 Count just how many key goals have been scored by opponents midfielders against us this season then realise just how frequently our defensive midfielders are not covering their runs... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
