[PSumbler]

He's understandably incredulous at our defending isn't he

Completely and utterly. I think they are finding it very hard to believe we are so generous

 

[Birchgrovejack]

Wood just panics with the ball, he's given a pass to a teammate 3 times already who's tightly marked and 5 yards away.
Fulton is a midfielder who can't pass a ball 10 yards.
Luckily daka is taking finishing tips from Yates

 

[monmouth]

We're well in a relegation scrap if he persists with this nonsense. Any team will walk through this set up with these players.

It's like a men's team playing children.

How the hell did he miss that?

 

[A4Jack]

How the fuck do you leave a striker with a tap in 6 yards out

 

[bakajack]

Some of our passing intelligence (or lack thereof) is truly atrocious.
Passing the ball to Grimes on his right foot when he is surrounded by four Leicester players.
Fulton passing the ball back into trouble every time we do beat the press.

 

[airedale]

It’s the Whittaker game on Saturday. (Music) Dum Dum Dum.

 

[monmouth]

Better from Yates. I did think edge of the box shooting might be his only real trick.

 

[A4Jack]

Is it too late to leave Sheehan in charge

Do we have a 28 day cooling off period

 

[Cooperman]

Bournemouth was only Thursday night and within hours of that humping Williams came out and acknowledged the set up error. Fast forward to Tuesday and it’s almost matching Thursday. Am I missing something?

 

[newquay]

Williams cannot set a team up to defend, some of the Notts County highlights show this.

Is he simply Martin's Number 2, version 1.0 ?
Are we regressing into that beta version ?

 

[eteb]

Preceded with:
‘Reckless defending by Swansea’ - in the first few mins.

This is Martinball, FFS

We need flags in asbo corner, pronto

This is infinitely worse that martinball.

Williams was supposedly the 'brains' behind it but we are 10x worse defensively and can't attack

Ashby the useless cunt then boots a cross out for a throw

 

[monmouth]

Every ball behind us or over the top is killing us. We're too high Williams you tosser Why the hell can't he see it, or what's Grimes doing as Captain?. Change it.

 

[bakajack]

I still fail to see what Fulton is offering to our midfield besides the ability to pass it straight back into the press every time he gets the ball. He so rarely picks his head up or collects the ball on the half turn so he has the option of going forward.

 

[Magic_Michu]

At least we’re growing into the game a bit now… it couldn’t have been any worse tho

 

[bakajack]

One thing I will say is that Yates has shown far more willingness to take a shot today than in recent weeks.
