Embarrassing The bloke talks a great game, and everyone laps it up, “he’s such an intelligent coach blah blah “ - but the reality is very little has improved in his time here. Get a coach in who can actually improve us please Genuinely not seen anything since he’s been here to have confidence he’s the right guy. It’s been terrible from day one. He got a free run at the end of that first season as we were in free fall but 2022 has been diabolical. It can’t go on any longer, not getting fooled anymore by a few good games. We’ll go best WBA now and people will forget until the next inevitable shit show. We need someone fresh in who can change the style of play, we’ve got plan A and that’s it. 2 Quote Link to comment

Bajic; Tanner, Klose, Atkinson, Naismith; Sykes, Williams, Scott, Pring; Wells, Conway. Our current formation doesn’t help. We have no midfield. 4 Quote Link to comment

Redinthehead Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Disappointing performance in general but particularly the lack of response after we conceded the 2nd goal - not helped by our lack of shape/midfield. Quote Link to comment

Bris Red Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Seems we have really lost our way since the back to back defeats against Norwich and Burnley. The worry for me that yes whilst it was great when we were scoring for fun earlier in the season, the defensive frailties have been there right from the first game and have been just a theme really ever since Pearson has come in. I like Pearson and what him to succeed as City manager but after almost 2 years in the job he has continually failed to improve our defensive capability’s. 3 Quote Link to comment

Champfan45 Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 13 touches in just over 60 minutes for Conway is rough. They must find a way to get him involved, or try something different. Quote Link to comment

Banjo Island Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Why is it that most teams we play look very organised and diciplined whilst our gang just seem to make it up as we go 1 Quote Link to comment

David Brent Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Nigel is doing good enough. People blinded by stats without context. Some things he gets wrong, in hindsight, but we’re better off than when he was appointed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
22A Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 OK, so the goals have dried up. Are Conway, Wells & Weiman all having an off spell (as all strikers do) at the same time? Or are they not getting the service they did two months ago? Or have the oppos sussed us out and know how to stop City? Quote Link to comment
