Davefevs Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 Yes, it happens, but at 2-1 up, I see us bombing forward, committing men, and allowing the game to stay open...which gives Charlton a chance. I’m fine with controlled counter-attacking, but it was like we were chasing the game. Too many players beyond the ball, so when you lose it you’re stuffed. Poor defensively for the goals admittedly. One other thing, for all his brilliance, I’ve thought it for a while, Bentley is a reticent to come off his line. We don’t half have to head balls away on our 6 yard line. It’s an area where Mäenpää’s better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Grim Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 It happens constantly. I dont think it was mentioned on here but look at Fulhams chance at the end when they hit the bar. How the hell do we get caught on the break in the 94 miniute? I couldn't believe my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s why I don’t believe those that say LJ sets us up not to lose. I genuinely don’t think he does. But he needs to learn when to sit on a lead (especially away) or accept a draw is a good point gained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Grim Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 That's what doesnt make any sense. I do think he is overly cautious to start with. But when we are looking to see out a game we are reluctant to try and keep the ball and close the game out. I genuinely think he confuses himself sometimes.

Will Rollason Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 Take you back to the wolves game..... puts Flinty up front to break the deadlock against 10 men.. works a treat CH pulled towards Flint and Bobby scores. Now, at that point i assumed that we would pull Flinty back to Ch and shut up shop.. look to hit them on the break.....hmmmmm..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still say we would’ve eventually won the game without even needing to put Flint up top, but I agree 100% with what you say. Our goal that evening came from a slick passing move, with no ball up to target-man Flint! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me started on Barnsley! - got dog's abuse for calling LJ out after that rubbish! Should have been given his P45 as he left the pitch...

Overall, I think Bentley's form seems to have waivered a bit since becoming a father and if Mäenpää was fit I'd put him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Dave, but Flints presence in the box pulled both Centre half's to him, anticipating a ball to the back post, leaving a gap for Bobby who got slipped in by Brownhill? That actually wasn't my point though, it was that after the goal ,as Sleepy said elsewhere in this thread, we all expected LJ to pull Flint back.... job done... Wolves would have had to come onto us.. as it was Flint stayed up and they got in behind because we had all gone gung ho... and well.. the rest is history.... game management is what i'm talking about...

Yes, I’ll concede that point, just watched it back definitely re game management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today really showed what a shambles we are from top to bottom... I stated a few weeks back before Millwall we will be 8/10 come NY day and 8 to 10 pts adrift of 6th place and it certainly looks like they won't let me down. We are miles off being a serious top 6 team by some way and I'd say 2 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
