pl00peh91 Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 As much as I respect the job that LJ has done, does his reputation as a manager who is good at changing the game with his subs ignore the underlying issue that his starting 11 is so often ineffective?

It’s more a case of battling and getting what we can until we get some back. We are literally starting now with two players no one else wanted to offer a contract to, and others that would not be first choice. It’s a minor miracle we are where we are at the moment. Over a quarter of the way through the season and we don't deserve to be where we are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs more than that. We see it most weeks....tries to be too clever loses the ball with little impact. Bench player come on against tiring teams.

O'Dowda, Brownhill and Weimann been good. Palmer awful. Rodri quiet. Baker and Rowe offering nothing. Pereira been a poor too on ball. COD has made 2 really good runs, err that's it - not enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 I may be in the minority but I thought we bossed the first half . Kipre is doing well for them , understandably as we don’t have a big unit up front. Wigan didn’t look like troubling us their goal. We can win this .

You've searched for a comment I made about Rowe at left back, when I am talking about him as a centre midfielder. He is physically strong regardless anyway.

My hunch is that because Moore has a tendency to make Wesbter-esque marauding runs, he prefers Baker in a flat back 4 as if Moore gets caught out on one of his runs it otherwise leaves Williams heavily exposed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you can use that statement for the whole team at home games like this. Seems to me that he tries to do much on the ball in the wrong parts of the pitch i.e. our last third, and too often gives it away, putting us under pressure. Given the way we started you can perhaps understand if he feels he needs to make something happen, but I think he needs to keep it simple in our half and play in their half. I think it could be missing Messango who always seem to be available for the simple pass and to tidy things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's effectively been 3 v 3 in the midfield. We've had 3 CBs marking 1 striker. We need to get the ball down the wings more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
