Bell off, Pring on Jay to RB James off, HNM on Martin off, Wells on Not that we are likely to do all 3 at once. 1 Quote Link to comment
CotswoldRed Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 It has the feel of "we could play all day and not score." If we don't shoot we certainly won't score, and we haven't bothered to take even a speculative strike yet. Quote Link to comment

None But just remember that the usual suspects will gang up on you if you suggest that there could be something lacking with the current manager. Personally- I thinks he's lacking nothing except a plan. 1 Quote Link to comment

Alessandro Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 It’s a poor half. Very poor. Not blaming Bell, but he’s been exposed. Suspect he’ll be hooked at HT - it’s all coming down our right hand side. Odd decision to play him RB to be honest. But we see again how hard it is to blood youngsters in defensive positions. Two very soft goals and it’s shut up shop time from Brum who can sit back and nullify what we’re good at which is exploiting space with running and pace. If we can somehow sneak an early goal second half, well it’s game on. But we need to sure up at the back because 3-0 looks more likely than 2-1 at moment for next goal. Quote Link to comment

Silvio Dante Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 16 minutes ago, old_eastender said: Not impressed with James so far, partly at fault for 1st goal, and too slow to move the ball when he gets in CM Exactly. Whether he’s not fully fit or just playing badly I don’t know but he’s not doing the job of getting it off Kalas and moving it quickly. He’s not quick enough to cover the gaps behind the WB when they go as Williams is and he’s just been totally pedestrian. At times, Williams had had to drop to recieve because James isn’t moving it. We’re effectively as a result playing with Scott in CM alone. Awful first half. Only DaSilva in credit for me on that 45. 3 Quote Link to comment
cityexile Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Worlds a bit depressing. Lets get away from it all for a wee bit and watch City. Ends up even more depressed. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

pl00peh91 Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 I cannot endorse a manager who has allowed us to become the worst team defensively since the glory days of Foster, Nyatanga, Fontaine and McGivern. What is the point Quote Link to comment
Garland-sweden Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 This was not good to see. Usually Im optimistic but cant see that we can score today. Hope Im wrong. Quote Link to comment
westonred Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Pearson has to take the blame for this shambles Bell is not a defender he looks good attacking but Naive in defence Semenyo is clearly not 100% fit and should not have started We are missing HNMs energy in the middle James is too slow Quote Link to comment
Red Exile Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Bit grim. Pity as it’s been a while since I could get the Gate. Defence poor! But not completely out of it I feel. Need to come out of the traps quickly. Quote Link to comment
Jerseybean Posted March 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Against a team below us at kick off that was a very painful and disturbing half we were poor everywhere, they are clearly targeting Sam Bell, Semenyo and Martin in particular have been liabilities giving the ball away repeatedly. Certainly anticipate a reshuffle and subs at half time. Quote Link to comment

Gazred Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 I'd swear I've seen this game about 20 times before this season. We are dreadful to watch at times. Brum have done next to nothing and are comfortably 2 up. Embarrassing yet again. Quote Link to comment
Sir Geoff Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 TBF to Bell he did have a shocker but had no help from Kalas or Williams. Was totally exposed. Atkinson was stripped and about to come on on 43 mins but Nige obs decided to wait til half time to make the change. 1 Quote Link to comment

ExiledAjax Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Even Toby on RobinsTV is struggling to be positive. And he gives "toe the party line" training to the Russia Today presenters. 2 2 Quote Link to comment
Top Robin Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 16 minutes ago, DaveInSA said: It’s a shared responsibility. 3 managers have failed to get anything other than dross from these players. The common denominator is the players. they don’t implement a plan effectively and they make stupid individual errors, time and time again. Yes but Pearson was supposed to be a quality manager as opposed to the other two Quote Link to comment
pl00peh91 Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 We are so lucky that the bottom three are terrible or subject to points deductions, as we have relegation team written all over our recent performances Quote Link to comment
