It went right back to the keeper, who was standing well out of his area to be fair, to Santos and to midfield. Quote

But on your last point, anyone that wants changes, pragmatism, plans B, C, D - and some leaders (preferably with some bite/physicality) - its one or t'other, we either want IE to stay and continue or we want the points you mention, we can't have both. IE isn't going to change, rightly or wrongly. I'm not talking about exceptional circumstances like Northampton in response to a sending off - its about adapting tactics to certain opposition or just to take them by surprise occasionally, or to adapt to who's available in our squad, maybe not always having 5 defenders/wingbacks etc when circumstances dictate. I dont think it is one or the other, he has changed in his time with us, very slowly, but he has. The different plans will show the pragmatism, picking the right tactic to suit the challenge in front at that time and maybe sacrificing some of the 'style'. Maybe I am asking too much with some leaders on the pitch as well, but it could be as simple as a change of captain, as Santos just isn't the man to drag them out of the shit. Quote

captainmed Posted March 1, 2024 Posted March 1, 2024 (edited) The stat that JDB didn’t touch the ball at all in 20 mins is staggering if true. FFS, how can a forward come on when you’re 1-0 down and not even touch the fucking ball. Says it all. Edited March 1, 2024 by captainmed Quote

Johnnyrotten Posted March 1, 2024 Posted March 1, 2024 I don't recall him touching the ball unless he got something on a corner. There were no long balls upto the striker that we've seen in previous games, where he gets a flick on or controls it and lays it off. We simply didn't pass to the strikers once we were behind, from memory it was all down the flanks or Dempsey running into about 3 defenders through the middle. I think Jerome had a header towards goal from a cross from the right, but I'm not convinced there was a meaningful touch by Jerome with his feet. Quote
Site Supporter Cheese Posted March 1, 2024 Site Supporter Posted March 1, 2024 Just finished. Bodvarsson didn't touch the ball once. He ran his cock off as he usually does, but it wasn't down to the way we played either. Hardly any of those 20 minutes were played in our half. The idea that we were "playing around at the back in injury time when we're 1-0 down" is fucking nonsense. Wigan stuck 11 men behind the ball (as you'd expect), and we couldn't find a way to break through. We had chances, but it didn't happen. Simple as that. Quote

They executed their game plan to perfection, which in effect was to let us execute ours....... In the full knowledge that if they stayed in their defensive shape we were likely to create the square root of fuck all. Our most threatening move of the match was Coleman's long clearance to Collins & his cross in to the box. Quote

Maloney has done us both times so it’s a fair argument. Quote
