MarcusX Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 We do seem to get more than our fair share of deflected goals don’t we? Is it half hearted defending / blocking or just bad luck? Seemed to have acres to shoot from, bakinson seemed to be in no mans land Quote Link to comment
redsince1994 Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 We looked like we might have remembered how to pass the ball before the goal, now back to normal 1 Quote Link to comment

Porto Red Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 23 minutes ago, JonDolman said: I don't mind this line up at all if it is 352. A decent game by Bakinson on Saturday. We should be able to pass the ball with the back 3 all being comfortable on the ball, Atkinson could really advance a lot in that wide centre back position of the 3. Midfield double pivot and wing backs all very comfortable on the ball. With all due respect as probably one of the more astute tacticians and deep thinkers about the beautiful game on this forum, isn't it high time that you changed your user name to "Double Pivot"?

HappyClapper Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) I know we’re one down, but I actually think we have done ok. There is much more purpose in our attacking play. If we can stay concentrated and tighten up a bit we will win this. Edited November 2, 2021 by HappyClapper Quote Link to comment
Super Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 As per usual our passing is awful. Quote Link to comment
YGBjammy Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Was unlucky, but you make your own luck in this game. Was a good move from them, meanwhile at the other end we are wasting our chances. Quote Link to comment

Alan Dicks Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 It’s beginning to look like a shambles again, do we have more than 5 seconds of possession before a sloppy pass or a poor first touch gives Birmingham the ball again? Quote Link to comment
Bobbie Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 We have no pace and therefore zero outlets. Painful to watch. Quote Link to comment

Jefferz Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 If you put aside self-delusion, blind faith and wishful thing, we are shit. Passing is shocking, first touch shocking, tracking back shocking, positional play shocking. We play at League 1 pace. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Red white and red Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 I can remember not so long ago we were a decent footballing side. We’ve turned in to one of the worst. We look awful. 1 Quote Link to comment
The Original OTIB Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Bakinson like Palmer always looking for the glory ball, can't do that with this team. Wasteful. Quote Link to comment
old_eastender Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Martin so slow to react to the ball in, after good work by Weimann Quote Link to comment
Bris Red Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Bakinson is ******* useless what does he offer? 1 Quote Link to comment

Is it half hearted defending / blocking or just bad luck? Seemed to have acres to shoot from, bakinson seemed to be in no mans land Probably just stats and probabilities. We've likely conceded far more shots than most teams in the league over the last 2 years, hence we're prone to a higher number of unlucky deflected goals. Some might argue that we also have more "lucky, got away with one there" moments than other teams for the same reason. That goal did feel very unfortunate though (especially after a reasonable start). 1 Quote Link to comment
Bedred31 Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 BBC showing us at 60% possession so, a few errors aside, it’s not a complete shambles. 1 Quote Link to comment

Birmingham might have got lucky with that one, but there were at least 2 other chances that we were very lucky not to concede. Swings and roundabouts. 1 Quote Link to comment
