Suzie the Fox Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Think we all knew it was going to be 'one of these' games
trabuch Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 I don't mind the odd long range shot tbh. Perhaps not from Faes though.
Finnegan Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 I know this sounds like something you'd make up for the bit but I really do actually have a mate who's a bus driver from Preston. Think he turns up for his shift in the morning and finds less of them parked up than this. 1

foxfanazer Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Nah we're not. The 8 wins out of 9 were just a fluke
MPH Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Would you Adam and Eve it. A left winger who tracks back..
420Hashish Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Need to get out of this league cuz this is some shite
Sly Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 At what point do they sucker punch us like Hull did? 1
StriderHiryu Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 This lot make Football under Sean Dyche look like Brazil 1970. 1

KFS Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Such a shit league man. What the **** is this brexit shite 1

A bit like KDH with it always seeming to end the play when it reaches him. Although KDH has been good tonight. He's also one of the few players willing to take a risk and beat his man, which you desperately need against this sort of set up. But he will be frustrating at times as a result. He's created our best chance. 2
JimJams Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 just need players to drive at the box a bit more. Somebody will get taken down eventually.

Sampson Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Dunno why Matt Elliott thinks it’s a penalty, was a blatant dive by Mavididi. Frustrating that he needed to turn back and dive instead of just playing the ball in

I think this is basically our tactical Achilles, Enzo seems completely unwilling to change anything. I will say your options are severely limited when the opposition play this way, but we are just repeating the same play over and over. Pass to winger, back to defender, pass it right across the back 4, over to the other winger and repeat aimlessly. It's way too easy to defend against us by just parking the bus. Need to try something different or atleast have the freedom to have a pop from range. Preston will mop this up all night.
egg_fried_rice Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 bit of excitement following a successful 1 on 1 from stephy. that's the way we'll need to unlock them - they are mostly doing well doubling up, but there are opportunities for those individual battles...
