Guest Mickyblueeyes Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 This so far is a good away performance. Something we have been crying out for all season. Reminds me of Sunderland away last year, hopefully with the same result. Mendy has potential and I think he has done well. Okazaki needs to go up a few gears. With three in midfield we need him to drop back less and he should be supporting Zillow a bit more.
Bazly Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 I don't get the lets punt the ball 15 yards in front of our furthest player.
lgfualol Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Simpson has the footballing technique of a sunday league footballer, but can defend well at least.
shen Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 We seem to be running into cul-de-sacs a little too often. We look very easy to defend against.
Dr The Singh Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Kingy, Amertey, Mendy are all shit with the ball, bring DD on

Ulloa has won pretty much everything in the air, and Mahrez looking reasonably dangerous when on the ball. We are really lacking pace though and I think we will see Musa at some point. Mendy I think is having a poor game, which is a concern but Amartey and King doing ok. Still predicting a 1-0 win for either side. Hopefully a bit of quality can win it for us. I reckon Mendy is having a good game.He cleaning up well, lays off to be the extra man... For his real 1st game back, hes holding his own
Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 My view is that Ulloa is so average in open play. His value is in the box. Formation and personnel needs tinkering in 5 if we desire 3 points today.

psychonaut Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Mendy is not comfortable on the ball at all. He panics with players yards away from him and always goes for the safe back pass.
Karljohn Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Looking forward to either side being able to string 3 passes together this half.
Guest Col city fan Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 If you really watch this game, you'll see why we keep going long. None of our midfielders are keeping the ball, bursting forward, or linking up higher up the field. We have nothing going forward from the midfield. Fortunately, they aren't mucg better.

Also not surprising we struggle when the strikers get nothing, not sure why people thought Ulloa coming in would change that Been fine, no better or worse than the others in cm. his job is to sit and protect, no idea what people were expecting. That's his game and he's done that well.

Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 We can win this if we get some attacking players on who can use the ball.
Bazly Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Those wanting subs should know by now they need to wait another 16 minutes. Patience.

Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 When Riyad gets the ball he has no forward options to hit at all. This is tactically poor.
Barky Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 5 minutes ago, Marshall Cockney Fox said: But we're playing 3 strikers We're playing 3 attack minded players when we usually play 4. Mahrez is having to be the link between midfield and attack all by himself.
Bryn Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Think we're desperate for width. I'd put Albrighton on for one of the centre mids.
