Re: Pauno out

Probably semantics but once out of the box the set up has done it's initial job. Defender not getting enough on it has naff all to do with zonal or otherwise as it was effective. Again poor clearance and not reacting to 2nd phase. From corners, we do not leave players unmarked at the back post. Fre...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bournemouth (h)

Absolutely deluded. Drinkwater has been dreadful for three games now. Another recruitment punt that has backfired. It really hasn't but you do love to look on the negative side of things. He has had a poor couple of games but had been excellent before that. It’s too early to say whether he will pro...

Re: Pauno out

We conceded from 2nd phase having cleared the ball out of the box. At set pieces from outside of the box, we use more of a high line that has had us caught out. Proper zonal marking has only been used, effectively, at corners this season. As mentioned, yesterday's goal was caused by blocking player...

Re: Pauno out

That can't be right, because that goal came exactly the same way multiple ones have earlier in the season. 11 in the box. Stood around the 6 yard box, simple ball beyond the back post to someone unmarked. Then either straight in , or back across goal to a player who is unmarked with one of our defe...

Re: Next Manager

Snowflake Royal Even McNulty would be an option at this point


Nope. He’s out injured for a number of months.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bournemouth (h)

Southwood seems to escape criticism. Fantastic pair of hands and great shot stopper but he scares me with the ball at his feet. Only a matter of time before he cocks up big time. What was he doing for the second goal. You could have passed that in the net he left so much space. He might have stoppe...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bournemouth (h)

Erm… results and performances? We might be 16th right now, but points deduction to one side (a points deduction largely stemming from decisions made while Bowen was in a senior role at the club) we’re looking a lot like a top-half team this season. I honestly wonder sometimes if some of you lot act...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Millwall (a)

This does look like a scrappy 1-0 home win to me.
I would ordinarily agree with Ian and play Laurent at CB but then who plays at CDM as I think Drinkwater has to be dropped?
Either way I would bring in Holmes and drop Drinkwater.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bournemouth (h)

For the record, I've watched every league game this season. Missed a combined total of maybe 80 minutes due to stream issues or running late. I'm assuming SCIAG thinks we're top half because he's seen fewer games than that. I’m baffled by his comments. I would say our results have been better than ...

We have technically gifted players but we play in such a risky way.

Re: Pauno out

I think SCIAG must have been the man screaming at a young lad for a number of minutes during the second half in the ED last night. In the end a steward got involved. He seemed to be ranting that the lad wasn’t supporting the team. Just going back to the game we started really well. On the front foot...

Re: Pauno out

Just to point out. We only use zonal marking at corners. Yesterday was the first goal conceded from a corner & arguably it should have been cleared off the line anyway. That can't be right, because that goal came exactly the same way multiple ones have earlier in the season. 11 in the box. Stoo...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bournemouth (h)

just another thing on our fit 11 outfield players 1 of them is in his first season to all intents - TDB DD and Baba - barely played for 2 years. Dann - think he'd basically retired before being lured back for one last go. Its also Southwood's first season in the champ - though obvs Rafael is an opt...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bournemouth (h)

Awful manager who got us to seventh last season and has us comfortable this season, much better than his three previous predecessors. Hmm. Ashcroft vs Yiadom is a no-brainer. Ashcroft vs nobody is also a no-brainer. Likewise Osorio vs Swift, Camara vs Ejaria, Ehibhationham vs Puscas. Most of them a...

Re: Pauno out

I’m with Ian in that I don’t think much of Pauno but for now would let him carry on for a bit longer. If this poor run continues I can’t see the owners backing him for much longer though.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bournemouth (h)

Paunovic has literally just said he has no intention of playing the youth players who “will not help the team”. So why put them on the bench? Also it’s not always about the players, change the oxf*rd shape, change something. Broken oxf*rd record. Awful manager. Awful manager who got us to seventh l...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bournemouth (h)

I said after the Blackpool, game what a complete liability Drinkwater was. It was like playing with ten men. Tonight he was even worse and played a huge part in the defeat.Pauno needs to show some balls and play Holmes ahead of him on Tuesday night. As for the rest it was so predictable. The usual g...
