Port Said Red Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 I have to say that I have been a little critical of his attitude since being pushed wide, but yesterday he looked like he had accepted that this was where he will have to play when Famara is up top. He actually looked like he wanted to play and put in a really good shift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Fred Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Excellent yesterday,was a thorn in Norwich's side and battled for everything Made Fam's goal with pure doggedness.

1960maaan Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Not sure he ever lacked effort or commitment , but then I'm not sure he brings much else at the moment. He has a bit of pace, did the job he was asked but never really caused Norwich a problem. Then again for a lot of the first half he was filling in at left back when Kelly stepped inside to form a back 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May have switched to right back then , I think he was in the 6 yard box with Pisano but neither covered Aarons who came in behind the two of them.

We had a good 7-8 players in the box and still conceded! It was AW and it wasn’t even Pisano next to him! Pretty sure it was Marlon Pack. Was really weird we had about 6-7 in a straight line across our 6 yard box. I’ll admit I don’t know all the small details of football but that did not seem right. Why did we end up defending that deep? Why did we stop pressing at all? I get not pressing in their half but surely you have to put some pressure on their CB when he has just taken the ball within 30-35 yards of your goal? This is not the first time I have seen us concede this way either. We get a goal up and go into a shell way too early imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can it be a good plan to have the entire back 4 in the centre where there were no attackers ( 1 at most), while Diedhiou was the only one making a challenge ( at left back) and Weimann left to cover the cross? I was livid because we just seemed to be making it easy for them. Why can't we try to stop their build up, instead of standing off and letting them play balls in under no pressure. Get in their faces I say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how things turn out He played a few games as striker and scored 5 was it. Since Fam came back he’s played off the striker, No10 and yesterday LMF and left back. Not saying he’d have carried on at the same rate, but it’s since he’s been moved he’s stopped scoring. It was a strange signing tag, not really a straight replacement for Reid.

southvillekiddy Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Andy more than deserves his place for winning the header from Paterson's cross against a much taller man and then fighting like ***k to retain the ball and then laying it off brilliantly to Fammy for the goal that got us back in the game. Fight and skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why we should see him in a central position to link up the play... though to be honest I think both of our full backs could of done better for both goals then put all the blame on AW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunate that Fammy slipped allowing the cross to the far post but it looked like we almost packed the goalmouth with all our defenders leaving nobody taller out on the right. However we all have to admit it was a brilliantly executed goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcofisher Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Can't understand why we can't swap pato out and put Weimann in behind Fammy with Eliasson and O'dowda on the wings, would see a lot bigger return from both of them I feel.

robin_unreliant Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Co-commentator on sky kept pointing out that AW was taking up really good positions and finding spaces but his team mates weren't spotting it. At one point he was unmarked in the box and waving his arms about. Just seems we don't have players on the right wavelength to take advantage of what he can do.
