Probably too many changes and we can't defend set pieces for toffee. Some dog shit would improve the pitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May as well give him a half off here and go for it. He's been poor for a while you're right. But also we are three down, we might aswell sacrifice the defensive midfielder. How have we let John brayford, a shit right back, score twice. Fuck me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The away form must improve however if we are to mount any form of serious challenge. Yeah it seems odd to say our away form needs to improve when we've won the previous 2, but we didn't claim to be the better team in either game and had to ride our luck at times. We aren't imposing ourselves on away games at all as evidenced by the failure to ever score first other than near the end. But its all about next season, its great to have no pressure games and not be looking at teams below us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 15, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted February 15, 2022 Easy to say too many changes, when there is still a fundamental issue with us defending the high/long stuff. Of course we could keep the ball better and reduce the opportunities for the opposition, but there is a continued problem on small, crappy pitches with direct opponents. Fleetwood, here, Morecambe, Accy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can swap one or two at a time, probably more so at home where we’re more comfortable, but 4 has proved too much. Having said all that, if we could defend a set piece and Baka slots his chance then it would look very different - we’ve not exactly been hammered all half.

And if we were offered a win and a loss, think most would've taken Oxford. Back on it Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting smashed by a town that don't even like footy. There was a Burton-on-Trent football league match before there was a Manc derby. And St Georges Park is nearby (with much better pitches!).

Deanu Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Is it worth risking Dion & Dapo? Even if they both get one or two back we'll get done on another set piece whilst risking our two best players on a dire pitch. Fleetwood, Plymouth, Stockport all over again. We smashed Sunderland 6-0 in a football match & now we're getting humbled again on a sandcastle due to set pieces that we look to neglect which is a cycle all season. Not the end of the world we weren't going to go up this season with our unpredictability but need to cut this shit out next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at stats, we never have good "headers won" figures. Not necessarily something to get too worked up over, but throughout the team it is a weakness. Maybe started slow, got caught and paid for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
