old_eastender Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Watched game on Sky, can't help but feel if Millen had recognised that Haynes was done in with 20 minutes to play and had bought on some fresh legs, Pitman maybe, to help Stead out, we could have held out or even sneaked a second. Very dissappointed in Albert, he was pants and rightly substituted. Stead was immense, still enough to suggest we can avoid the drop if we can have a fit Maynard back to partner Stead.

EmersonsKev Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Lets look at it as a week, 4 points on Tuesday morning would have looked very nice. We got the points, good shift in boys! Albert looked leggy 2nd half on Tuesday and should have come off but ran his backside off for an hour. Stead has been different gravy and I personally am relishing seeing him and Nicky playing with one and other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bs3 Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Set back again and invites pressure. We goes one up and they he goes to a five man midfield. Then he brings on another defencive midfield player with still half an hour to go. I'm sorry but Milen is truly awful with his tactics . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have scored 2 or 3 and would have done on a different day, onwards and upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford the dog Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 4 points in the bag no we are still bottom still 30 odd games to go good week might have been a lot worse if lost both games so fair play to them still a lot of hard work to do but were on the right track ?

spudski Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Lots of huff and puff...And We could have won that. But Millen then decides to put Cisse on, and sit back. Haynes didn't have his finishing boots on, and should have been replaced. Sorry...But the lads worked hard, gave their all, and the fans made a great atmosphere. But we won't be able to to play that type of football all season...it's not possible. We were devoid of any shape and tactics. It just looked like a bunch of individuals running themselves into the ground. I thought the pundits had it spot on in their assesment of Millen making a stupid move, so early. Sorry but imho we would have won that game under a manager that had some clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mart Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 We could of/should of won that game, but once again we decided to defend to deeply after having scored a goal. We need to carry on attacking once we have scored, falling back to the 40 yard line to defend dos'nt help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screech Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Disagree. QPR are a decent side and would have torn us a new arsehole if we had gone for a second. Four points this week is a great return considering how desperate we have looked in recent weeks. At least the players are digging deep now, we would have rolled over and lost that one 2 weeks ago.

GrenadaRed Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 We were pinned back for ninety minutes and were lucky to get a point. Nonsense. Haynes and Rose had good chances and Stead was a constant threat. We had a lot of defending to do, but should really have gone two up before they scored. It was a very tough game, but to say we were pinned back for 90 minutes is just ridiculous. I can't believe that one of the worst strikers I have seen in a city kit in recent years scored against us; it was almost inevitable I suppose.

spudski Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 For all the hard work the players put in, i cannot see how all the happy clappers can defend, the one tactical move that KM screwed us up with. It's such a shame...I feel really sorry for the players. I'd be really gutted if i was them. They worked their socks off, and played to the best of their ability. The players and the fans were really let down tonight by those 2nd half tactics. A real, real shame. I felt proud of City by the work rate they put in. And the crowd sang their hearts out.

Welcome To The Jungle Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Who gives a crap about how we sat back etc. QPR have a sick defence (see league table), great goal scoring record (see league table) and are yet to lose (see league table). we made them look average, and so we must have played well. However, we must start pushing out in 2nd half. We, if we had are shooting boots on we would have scored 3/4, so well done lads keep it up.

We were a bag of shit in the second half. Countless times, fair play to the lad Stead was running up front on his own with **** all to play off of. In between naps i saw hoof balls. Haynes made shit like a good thing tonight, ****** up every chance he had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pocketscrot Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 i think millen did the right thing bringing on a deffence mid. We were getting over run in that area and it would have only been a matter of time before they broke free. It was a harsh goal to concede given the amount of pressure we had dealt with well. 4pts this week has been well deserved and we look more like a decent unit than we have in previous weeks. If we can keep this up we will get the results we need to drive us up the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonto Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Oh my days! I love football for the difference of opinion it creates but sometimes it does get frustrating! Our stall was set from the outset as 451 without the ball with stead pushing from left wing to support Haynes when we had the ball. It was a formation that was always going to sit back and try and stifle qpr and play on the counter attack. Playing this was ensured we kept ourselves in the game for as long as possible against a team unbeaten in the league. For me Milly got it almost got it spot on. 4 pts in 2 games, only 1 conceded and the buzz is back at AG....still worth a good old moan though....

BCFC Jordan Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Good performance tonight we could and should of scored more.

What a load of crap, it is very easy and brave making decisions whilst a 'pundit', KM is trying to keep his job FFS, it was a game that we could easily have lost after they equalised against a very talented side, who had to resort to route one to get a point. KM was spot on unfortunately Cisse could'nt pass water tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
