That's limping into the play offs. As above, no one had great consistency- including Cardiff. Once it became unlikely to get second, we perhaps dropped off it a bit. Certainly defensively. Probably true for those other teams around us. Interesting approach over the two legs; it seems that we were looking to be more solid, and perhaps lose a touch of attacking flair. Some giving Burstow a bit of grief, but he was on his own for both games, and they were both tight affairs, with not many clear cut chances for either team. Quote
Popular Post Lostock Whites Posted May 15 Popular Post Posted May 15 (edited) Getting Erhahon back in is huge, back to back clean sheets, no coincidence. Kenny has been immense and will miss his attributes for sure. But in the Stockport home game what stuck out was how light we were in midfield compared to them. I know Kenny scored, but there were huge gaps in midfield and they were controlling with the likes of Norwood. Having Sheehan, Erhahon and Rodirgues further up has been fantastic so far and will be key for Wembley. We just look miles more balanced. Edited May 15 by Lostock Whites Quote

I don't think so. Quote

Suspect the injury to Kenny may have had some bearing on team selection/tactics. Quote

Perhaps SS realised it wouldn't be easy to outscore the opposition, so chose a more solid, pragmatic approach. Couldn't give a fuck if it a little more dull, with fewer chances. We got one more than them, and that's all we needed. Quote
JimmyRiddle Posted May 15 Posted May 15 There definitely was a willingness just to put our boot through it, for the first 20mins, get them away from our goal. And why not, melding this kind of pragmatism with the footballing philosophy is what is needed. I really think JK getting injured has done us a favour, at least for these Bradford games. Quote

People texting me last night saying it was the worst game they'd ever seen, but I was totally gripped. Because of the tension... In hindsight, had I been watching that as a neutral, I'd have struggled with it Quote

RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted May 15 Posted May 15 I thought it was great tactics last night, especially early on to just pump it forward then crowd them as they tried to play through us......they just dont have enough about them to do that. And a special mention for Sarcevic who was absolutely gash for 180 minutes 😃 Quote
