Negan Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Knowing city, After last season we will keep plenty of clean sheets and have a solid defence but scoring will be our problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe this season Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 I often think about the state of my bedding, yes I have plenty of clean sheets, pillow cases and duvet covers, thanks for asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie_adam_no1fan Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Depends on who plays at the back - the full backs are guaranteed in Moloney and Cunningham but the centre back pairing isn't - and that is key. I don't think we are much further forward in that respect and I'd expect the same panicky defending as last season. Unless SOD can get a couple of decent centre backs before the window shuts of course. So you saying flint is rubbish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will find Fontaine will be alot better next season, he wont be playing in a team void of any confidence and playing with a 1st ball winner next to him will make a world of difference.

Keith_Lemon Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Knowing city, After last season we will keep plenty of clean sheets and have a solid defence but scoring will be our problem. Ditto We seem to be like a pencil with no led. Problem we still have to, (which I am surprised has not been mentioned on this forum in the summer) is the lack of a creative/general midfielder. Someone who can create those chances for our forward players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland-sweden Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Think SOD knows how to build a proper defence. 1-0 City all the way is ok for me, he he. The team is built from the back and I think we have learned the lesson from last season. Clean sheets are always points, and I think we can progress there this season, if not we are in deep trouble.

Taylor10 Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 I think we will. We can comfortably play a back 4 or go to a 3-5-2 with the options we have. A fit Moloney and Cunningham will be a massive plus in this division. I'm pleased with how we are shaping up defensively but ultimately the real test will be August 3rd.

ciderbeans Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 I'd rather is concede less over scoring more goals. Conceding less will give us the opportunity to gain points even if its just one and it could allow us to nick numerous games 1-0. I believe our championship playoff final year we had numerous 1-0 wins as our defence was solid. We can see from the last two seasons that the defence has been our downfall. I hope this time round, we've got a good combination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JammyOne Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 We have a far superior goalkeeper this season, and we've got an improved defence. Hell yeah, we're gonna keep clean sheets this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Humble Realist Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Can't be worst than last year...wat was it 30games and the last football league team to keep a clean sheet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy1968 Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 As I said on the match thread, looks like we might nick a few 1-0, but scoring might be a problem, but sorting out the goals conceded is a priority after last season shambles. If I remember wasn't Joe Jordan pretty defensively minded. I certainly remember him as player manager leading the line as a single striker away from home? Anyway the more we keep the ball the less this sort of discussion really matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
