cityexile Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 Used a get out of jail free card that half. Shape is all wrong, so many spaces for them to run in to. If we can change things and exert some control we have a chance, but it’s quite a big ‘if’. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 I know it's a funny old game but how are we 1-1 after being totally outplayed by a very ordinary QPR? Appalling non performance by City. By the way, I've turned off the sound because listening to our Irish goalkeeper coach is the absolute pits.

Selred Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 Bloody awful to watch City at the moment. Not creativity at all, no midfield, poor defence and overall riding out luck. After the past few weeks the league position massively flatters us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numero Uno Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 The main thing Holden has to do at half time is find a solution on the left hand side because if Samuel keeps on going past Dasilva like he's a training cone then they will score again. If he has to sacrifice somebody and bring Rowe on to help Dasilva out then so be it. It's not like we are playing well in other areas and will lose anything by doing that.

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 The sort of game that managers hate, far too open. Samuel has had Jay on toast, and I don't really understand why he's followed him all across the pitch. We have to stop the crosses coming in. On the bright side, when Nagy and O'Dowda have got forward they have done so with a purpose. Good poachers goal from Wells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old_eastender Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 Bring Bakinson or Massengo on for Brunt, Rowe on for Semenyo, go 3-5-2 allowing Martin to play with Wells in the centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QPR are a very good side going forward and have too much energy for us. I wouldn't call them ordinary when they have the ball tbh. They competed very well against a Brentford side the other night that normally bum us from minute 1 to minute 96 but their achilles heel is they just cannot defend.

With us in possession, they’re all over us. Yes you do start to worry that the ones who had Covid are not 100%. Anyway luckily we’re still in it and hopefully we can nick a win.

Harry Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 Brunt has had possibly the worst half of football any of our players have played this season (nay, decade, nay century!!) Regular readers will know my thoughts on Nagy, but in the last few games he’s stepped up and is again probably the best on offer tonight. He’s certainly light years ahead of Brunt as a DM. If Brunt continues to play DM, we lose this game. Simples. Get him off and let Nagy play DM, where he’s been our best player for 4 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted December 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 Half time summary. Jeez where do I start? Tough half with ten-men (), but fair play getting back into it with our best move of the half. As defensive shape, that’s as ragged as I’ve seen us for a long time. But if you a midfield where two players are running around (fairly aimlessly) and one doing nothing at all, you get passed around. Brunt significantly the issue but O’Dowda and Nagy are losing shape too. If I had a pound for every time Barbet got the ball, and Lee Wallace ran from left back inside 20 yards, and they split our midfielders and passed through us, I’d be a rich man. Seriously that is schoolboy shape and marking. If we continue that they will eventually score again...and again. Holden needs to dish out a bollocking at h-t...mainly at Brunt. And I’ve not even talked about his passing. Well done Nahki (good run COD off of Martin)....great ball Zak. But, boy, that was pretty awful. Good swap to move Semenyo to LWF and Wells the other side. Bit more physical against B O-S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
