Yeah that was a hard watch. It’s simple there’s too too many young lads with very little experience.
Hugill looked ok but it’s that age old problem we’ve had for the past few years:-
Do we blame the forward?
Or
Do we blame the service to the forward?Me?, I think it was the service today. I really don’t see the point of throwing a high ball up to young Hugill with 2 strapping centre half’s either side of him when he clearly wanted to play off the shoulder of the defender but if he does he needs support coming from the middle.
Hugill kept asking for the ball to be played on to his left side but for some reason we kept hitting it down the middle on to his right.
The difference between Rankine and Jones was there for all to see. Jones cutting inside gave Charlton a headache and a half but on the right Rankine simply wasn’t brave enough deciding to turn back at every opportunity.
Why did Hughes come on?, was Aimson injured?, tired? was it the player or the managers choice? because he looked ok to me.
No I’m only saying this because Hughes’s head must be on a different planet right now and it clearly showed with a few big blunders and one costing us a goal.
Up till then Charlton huffed and puffed but weren’t threatening as Kerr came but I said to a friend “A mistake will win this” and it did.
I might get slated here but Adeeko for me is not good enough. I’ve seen enough of him and not enough improvement in that time for him to justify a place on every team sheet.
I’m afraid between him and Rankine that right side was pointless no go area.
Had Kerr and Aimson had of stayed on I think the game fizzles out to a boring 0-0 but sadly it didn’t.Danson needs to back the manager
He needs money (wages or signing fee) to sign players not 12 month loanees. We need to build not chop and change every season because next season.If we’re to steady the ship we need to add an experienced midfielder and only then we might and I can’t stress might enough) we might be in with a slim chance a top half finish
Agree with that. All of it.
What we need to do is stop this tippy tappy backwards and sideways passing nonsense. This one up front crap. We aren’t City. Why does everyone want to play Pep Ball? It’s boring as hell and clearly does NOT suit us. Everybody tries to play that way, one up front…absolute bore fest shite.
442…2 up front, balls into the box from the wide channels. Do it. Other teams will be expecting a Pep ball V Pep ball contest. Absolute bo**ocks to Pep ball! Get the ball down the flanks and into the channels, crossed in to TWO forwards trying to get on the end of it.
I absolutely DETEST this tippy tappy sh*te we try and play. It is God awful. And play at a greater tempo, with intensity and purpose. Instead of 2nd gear laboured, turgid football.
Get some experienced dirty b**tard of a midfielder to solidify it all and allow Matt Smith to push up. He was playing that deep today, he was like a bloody sweeper. He and Adeeko do NOT work. Adeeko is not good enough. Simple as.
If they don’t change, and they won’t, it’s going to be a long long season and we could be in real trouble. In his post match comments, Maloney shocked me by saying he was happy with what he saw. He also said Hughes head wasn’t right…so why was he even in today’s squad then? Shouldve been nowhere near. If he’s going or wants to go, get him gone.
Danson can either throw a bit of money for some solid reinforcements, or else be looking at a relegation battle. That team has League 2 written all over it. And a poor League 2 side at that.
Come on, we’re in a mess.
