Traf Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Nervy start and finish, great from 10th min until the substitutions. Subs didn't improve us again. I like Thomason but not with Lee & Williams. Headband boy is wank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The red card was rescinded but it was a stupid challenge because he gave the ball away. I would love him to turn it round and prove to be a great signing but for the games he has played I cant think of anything the guy has done right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rudy Posted March 9, 2021 Members Share Posted March 9, 2021 Sarc was taken off with a view to Saturday, it’s good game management. MM wasn’t and isn’t up to scratch IMO but it’s mainly because we have such a good squad. There’s a reason he’s in L2, lower your expectations of him and you won’t be disappointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day penny will drop maybe when we get promoted that Darcy, Delaney, Tutte etc are not good enough to be in this team. Even Arthur and Miller don't start at the moment. (I would add Isgrove to the list as well). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianofcleveleys Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 For an hour that was as much as I've enjoyed watching us for a decade, absolutely scintillating football, made 2nd look like 22nd, playing a completely different game to them. Slickness of movement from back to front was a joy to watch, our passing was quicker and more direct, shredding them umpteen times. Our only achilles heel there again though, still not enough goals to rest easy late on. Not exactly sitters being tossed up but some efforts that ought to have been better and a couple that were just a bit unlucky. 2-0 never that secure a lead and, as has been said earlier, while you can't legislate for Gilks howler, they'd been allowed a sniff and a bit of momentum before that with Maddison sub. For him to be indulged we need to be at least 3 up with 20 minutes left. 2 up and half hour was high risk. Having watched that tonight the only thing that will stop us getting automatic promotion is us, whether it be wastefulness in front of goal, keeper howlers or over confidence with subs or selections. That starting 11, that shape, bit more ruthlessness, that level of performance of the first 60 mins for most of all of the 90, we won't lose a game and could even win them all.

Respect to Mullin for scoring 20 odd goals, obviously got something, but this league is incredible for its complete lack of stand out strikers. Unless actually scoring no striker has an impact on the opposition, no proper shots or showing skill and composure. Its very non league, miles behind league one for me.

He needs to get this into his head before spraying 40 yds speculative passes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again you win the internet for the most purile fucking comment ever , we schooled the team in 2nd for 70 mins with the best football we have played in 5 years . Apart from a rickett by the keeper that would have been the most complete performance I have seen and 6-0 would have been no insult . Anyone that cannot see what Evatt is doing is a blind failure of a human . The substitutions ... Sarce coming back from a bad injury , needed resting , everyone has been crying out for Gnuha & Tomason for more minutes and with the 2 fastest tempo games in 4 days we have to rotate . At best you a click bait stump and at worst a Tranmere fan . Now do fuck off . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is worse, a player being in possession and giving it away to put us on the back foot, or that player not having the ball in the first place and so others making up for it by being in the right position? And is it better to give away free kicks or to just not have that challenge in the first place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianofcleveleys Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 We had them groggy for 60+ minutes through great ball retention, near-70% possession, everyone playing within the structure, working and pressing together to quickly get it back. Within 10 minutes of Maddison coming on they had a sniff of working their way back into it because he gave them cheap possession half a dozen times then made his usual limited effort to help get it back. He had a chance in a zero risk situation at Oldham to play his way into form and was absolutely rank, giving it away, running into folk and falling over, sulking about when something didn't work. Had another chance tonight, didn't take it again, all the same issues. A luxury we can't afford when it is all about structure and organisation with and without the ball. Not what we need on this run in and I wouldn't start him in a game till we're already promoted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact he was in the right place at the right time is enough for now. I don't know how many minutes he's had for us, but I reckon it's less than Santos had before he suddenly became the best defender in League 2.
