Lush Vlad Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 11 hours ago, The Prophet said: I've watched us plenty of times this season and thought we were a mess, tonight wasn't one. We played well. Yeah, I've been apoplectic about some of our so called performances this season. Whether it's been the shoddy defending, how passive we are, how we create fuck all, how many sitters we've missed, late goals. You name it, we've seen plenty of shite. Last night was not a game where you can say the tactics were wrong or the players didn't put it on the line. We were understandably a bit leggy from early on and the subs killed it for them. Technicians from 1 to 11 and they can just pass you to death. But everyone was still in there fighting to the end. To the point where I can't really fault any of them. Even though there were plenty of individual mistakes. I did half want us to take more risks and throw caution to the wind a bit more. But the first goal was always going to be crucial, as cliched as that is. A draw was a perfectly acceptable result for them and they played that way. We had to balance not overdoing it with fatigued players and getting carved open to go 1 or 2 down. Whilst also knowing in reality, we needed to be heading into the second leg with a lead. Cagey old game with some very fine margins and on another day we go in at 1-0 at HT or at least get it back to 1-1 in the second half. But it is what it is and I'm proud of them TBH. This is nothing like the mackems, Brentford and West Ham games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonas Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) Our XG conceded to goals conceded must be comfortably one of the worst. Certainly feels that way. And perhaps the opposite at the other end. Edited January 16 by Jonas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEntertainer Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 There was a good article about this on the BBC the other day, over and under performers, we're roughly where we should be based on XG, a few of the other teams not so much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Joel Inton Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Needs to find a way to attack, same issues for so long and he seems to have no idea how to address it.

Menace Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I'd assess at the end of the season if no upturn which imo doesn't look likely. This is absolutely shocking stuff week on week away from home and it's been happening a while now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
