He has no left foot either. Its early days and we have lots of injuries. So fair enough. But I see a few warning signs here. Rochdale fans say Hill is tactically not all that and stubborn.

Site Supporter HomerJay Posted October 19, 2019 Site Supporter Posted October 19, 2019 I thought we did ok in first half. Only gonna be one winner. Wilbraham changed the game, but senior fucked up for the first goal by not closing down, and zouma fell apart in last 20. Back to very young players today. We can't afford to have so many injuries. oh and Murphy was utter dogshit when he came on. Quote

We persist with it time after time because we aren't currently capable of doing very much else. We have little scope to accommodate many injuries, and now that we've lost a couple of players from our best team, this is the result. I'd have probably opted for playing Dodoo from the start but I doubt it would've made a huge difference. Edited October 19, 2019 by Lt. Aldo Raine Quote
Okocha10 Posted October 19, 2019 Posted October 19, 2019 (edited) Too many injuries have fucked us over simple as that. Having to play Senior centre half is just getting desperate. Dont think any team in country could cope with at least 11 first team players being out injured never mind us not even having team chemistry together on top of this. Our luck is just a joke Edited October 19, 2019 by Okocha10 Quote

Our luck is just a joke Rochdale bringing on a 16 year old RB at half time. We aren’t special. Rochdale are poor but we looked incapable of creating chances against them. Injuries definitely hurting us. But it’s more than that. We are playing out from the back but not good enough to do so and create anything. Quote

They're bringing him on because he's good enough to play, as I suspect you well know. I think I agree with you about the way we're trying, and failing, to set up, though. Quote
bwfcfan5 Posted October 19, 2019 Posted October 19, 2019 Also, Zouma - not got owt between the ears. Not sure you can do much with that. Quote

But putting Graham as the attacking midfield player was odd. He worked hard but he’s a more defensive type. The wide players aren’t working, Politic doesn’t look comfortable on the right and the Stoke lad has no left foot. Way we are setting up and trying to play is not right. Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted October 19, 2019 Posted October 19, 2019 With a squad as threadbare as ours your not gonna win games with your better players out, Bridcutt, Wright, Hobbs, Buckley it was inevitable that we weren’t going to get anything. And can we now fuck off clapping the likes of Wilbraham onto the pitch who then destroys us. Quote

They have players out injured too, but we're uniquely unplaced to cope with even the regular number of players picking up injuries, never mind the number we have out as things stand. I agree with the rest of your post, though. If we're playing Politic at all, I'd be tempted to play him through the middle. And Graham looked quite a distance off being ready today, which is no great crime given his age. With the players we had available to us today, I think we might've been better playing more direct.

Members DazBob Posted October 19, 2019 Members Posted October 19, 2019 On the whole I didn't think we were too bad. Don't get me wrong, lots of room for improvement but there's the makings of a decent side there. Ultimately three defensive fuck ups cost us. First goal was far too easy getting the ball I to feet in the box, the second two was a case of our defenders backing off and backing off. Only other real gripe is we're far too dependant on our left hand side. It was crying out to switch over to the right.. and when we did, hey presto, we scored. Missed Bridcutt terribly today, but we need to get over that quickly. Quote
Site Supporter FrancisFogarty Posted October 19, 2019 Site Supporter Posted October 19, 2019 I thought Rochdale were poor but we ran out of steam in the second half. We play some decent stuff until we get to the opposition box, then we didn't have a clue today. We scored a good goal but there was only going to be one winner. Quote
TM Trotter Posted October 19, 2019 Posted October 19, 2019 Bridcutt's absence really showed today - the midfield was absent as soon as Lowe got a yellow. The less said about Zouma's last half hour, the better. Dodoo's assist was excellent, he looked like a genuine outlet. Deserves a start IMO. Quote
Members DazBob Posted October 19, 2019 Members Posted October 19, 2019 Seemed to be a lack of confidence with shooting. Too many times there was an opportunity to get a shot away first time, but a first and/or second touch was taken and the defenders were able to then block the shot. Quote
Tungsten3 Posted October 19, 2019 Posted October 19, 2019 I thought we were the better team in first half. Verliden got a lot of crosses into the box. Problem is 1 old striker in the box to get on the end isnt going to work. The midfield needed to support or we have to have 2 up front Quote

Members DazBob Posted October 19, 2019 Members Posted October 19, 2019 After the game yoof said to me that at least he got to cheer something and, most importantly, the football was so much better to watch than it has been for the last couple of years. Quote
1969 Posted October 19, 2019 Posted October 19, 2019 Thought we did ok 1st half then scored a goal after that it all seemed to go to shit.Lowe mom by a country mile Quote
