Wrongagain Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Best home game for a while, Pato much better but still not doing enough against attacking midfielders, Norwich exploited that! Pack, Pato and o’Dowda in the main gave us a pretty good midfield, Weimann having a mare, can’t work out if it’s him or the pkaying style - looking forward to better things in this crazy league COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Absolutely loved the performance today. Was a joy to see us pressing and hassling once again. My Swindon mate was really impressed with Josh and Fammy. I actually feel a sense of relief more than anything else to be fair ! Relief that we still have these performances and style of play in us !

Baldyman Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 Having just watched it on the box..... COD’s goal today was so similar to JB’s against Man U ! Quality through ball from Pack again too ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Balls Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Hats off to the players today, most of whom had their best game in a while, perhaps with the notable exception of Kelly, who got caught at least a couple of times by Pukki. Also fair play to LJ who got the tactics and formation right from the start. It does however beg the question of why we have seen so little of O'Dowda this season. The only major negative was that their second goal seemed so inevitable as we dropped back deeper and deeper. We let them onto us, and we really needed fresh legs in midfield to chase them down for the last 25 minutes, plus some speed upfront to scare their centre backs into staying further back. The only options off the bench for that were Morrell and Eisa, which does demonstrate our lack of experienced fit players and strength in depth. In reality it was a difficult call for LJ. Make the changes and we win, it's inspired. Make the changes and we lose, and everyone on here would be on his case. Such are the joys of being a head coach / manager!

I kinda get why we need another Djuric if we're going to play that way. Loved it tonight, so much better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allwaysred Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Reminded me very much of the wolves game last year in some ways but again LJ has to learn to match the opposition's substitutions as Norwich like wolves dragged us wide creating far too much space to penetrate the box...... as I've already raised b4 we are so bad from throw ins its unreal for their 1st goal which was a great finish for 18 was aloud to take a touch Dolman side from their throw waltz through midfield to the other side of the pitch and not tracked by pato and that's 1 nil..... much better over 90 but basics again let us down.

I actually didn't think Norwich were up to much tbh. I thought we were comfortable for most of the game. Probably get shot down for this but the fact they are so high up shows how average this league is IMO. And that's the frustration, well mine anyway. I feel it's a bang average league. I've not seen one team ( maybe WBA but defensively awful) that I thought were anything special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garland-sweden Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Nice to see that we were going forward and created chances. Paterson and Brownhill, good shots. One of them should have been goal. The team looked they have fun when they played. Always liked Famara, he also helps in defence. Nice for Odowda to score and mom. COYR!!!
