toontownman Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Beyond disappointing. We are our own worst enemy. Huge next three games. On this form we will be out of the top two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Shit result, but its as you were, showed some decent character to actually get back into a game for a change, but ultimately 2 points dropped. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 With any luck it'll prove to be a good result for us in that, we might have our arses kicked and well into shape for Tuesday instead of going in thinking it's a fucking breeze again. 2 huge games now. Had plenty of warnings. Doubt this will change anything. TBF normally we pick up a good run of games after a shit performance. Hopefully this time it's the same. 6 points this week will virtually seal us promotion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1pe Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Not a terrible point considering the start and Huddersfield failing to win. It's slightly worrying how badly we struggle to so called lesser opponents. Hopefully Gayle is fit soon and we get a few big results over the next few games.!

Aye, but we've been getting results nonetheless. There are players in this team that we still need rid of, our squad isn't as strong as people make out, but it's still looking likely we can go up as Champions.

number9shirt Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 As I said in the week, our finishing is f***ing atrocious. No Dwight Gayle make Newcastle something something... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norseman Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 We are dropping points due to errors. We need better players. At least Huddersfield didn't win. Hopefully we can beat Brighton next to put some pressure on them both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I heard a stat a couple of week ago that said we were second in the league for goals conceded from individual errors. All that dominance second half and only five shots on target is also very poor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wyn davies Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 is there any point in us getting promotion, as I have a nasty feeling we will be straight back down, if, we keep some of these clowns. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I'm sure I read somewhere that he is having problems with the language / communicating and I think that's the issue. Otherwise I cannot see what the problem would be as he is comfortably our best CB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't spend what we need to, then probably not. Our low goals conceded to mainly due to our tactical strategy not our defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Poor first half, corrected to an extent in the 2nd, we really need to putting away these chances in the 2nd half though. But as long as Hudderfield result stays at a draw (or they somehow lose) and Brighton draw or lose we'll be lucky. Sounds not as bad as I feared.

pedro111 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Least the second half was more like it and we didnt lose. Atsu put in more than enough good balls to win that game. We need strikers willing to crash the ball into the net. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more do to with his understanding of tactics. Sure the Chronicle posted an article saying he doesn't listen to instructions, hence the Wolves (H) game we lost. He was specially told not to play the ball out of defence through the middle and into the midfielders feet as they were being pressed and losing possession, yet he still carried on playing the same passes. We lost and he hasn't played since. Rafa doesn't trust him to understand and execute his communicated instructions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
