Coppello Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 After parting with £34 and breaking my foot today, I sadly continued my journey to Loftus Road on my own from central London. The game itself was contested between two poor sides. From a city perspective it was definitely the worst of the season so far. We never found our rhythm today and struggled to string a few passes together. I do think think we are in a position where our lack of depth in attack has been highlighted. Wilbs has to start up top alongside Tammy to stop him getting bullied and allow to find more space. I'm still struggling to see what O'Dowda brings to the table and thought we missed Patterson/Freeman. On a positive note, Matthews looked very good today and put in a very confident performance. On to Saturday where we can put this behind us and win 3 points on front of a large crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we passed it we looked good. When we hoofed it we lost possession Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the frampton balti Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Tammy has to stop himself being bullied . Tomlin has to stop diving. It was a free kick if he hadn't been so dramatic would have got it. Freddie needs to punch less and catch more . Wilbraham and Abraham need to stop bumping into each other . Flinty needs to know where his goalkeeper is. Good performances from tomlin and bobby Reid . Shame bobby got injured and had is chance saved. Hope he's ok for Saturday. Generally not great tonight . you can still see a play off team in the making ........Qpr that is. Cant believe were still 6th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North London Red Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Just got home. Is there an away ground where it has been cumulatively more annoying to watch City than Loftus Road over the last 20 years or so? I hate losing to QPR and their gobby, gloating fans, and Loftus Road is definitely a bogey ground for us. That said, I thought we got what we deserved tonight. Too careless in possession on too many occasions - how many times did we give the ball away when not under pressure (Fielding being one of the main culprits, but by no means the only one)? As for the Reid chance I thought it was a brilliant bit of goalkeeping more than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree with all of that (didn't see your thread so pasted my report and ratings in @RedDave thread, but very similar perspective). On Matthews - agree he looked much more like the player of last season, very confident and composed defending, the only thing I'd reserve judgement on is going forward, both he and Bryan didn't do anything of substance going forward tonight, and given that the 1 up front really demands others to get forward and overlap and create some overloads, I'd like to see more evidence Matthews can adequately replace Mark Little's energy going forward.

If they trust him... great. How about "In LJ we trust. ('We' being me and the other fans who trust LJ. But 'we' specifically does not include Superjack.)"? Is that better? To be honest, it feels a bit of a mouthful... More frankly, I honestly don't get why you felt "we" included you in the first place? If some friends of yours said "we're going to the cinema", would you angrily assert that you are not going to the cinema and ask them why they are speaking on your behalf or would you assume that, if you weren't going to the cinema, the "we" probably didn't include you in the first place? I'd imagine the latter. It's pretty clear that, if you don't trust LJ, then when someone says "in LJ we trust" you aren't included in that. Nobody is speaking on your behalf and it's an absolutely absurd thing to get angry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
