We are just too slow in gettingbthe ball forward, i'm absolutely pissed off watching the ball get played across the back 4.
I would love them to show us the posession stats and then show what they are from the back 4.

i don't think going a bit more direct in this second half with the wind would be the worst idea, but we've passed rings around them in out limited attacks so far. they're from the lower league so a bit more acustomed to direct football as opposed to passing on the floor - in other words, mix it up ha

We need more rhythm and to hold the ball up more in midfield. We are far too frenetic

Let's just get the win and move on

 

[Brennan]

Eto'o is not a midfielder though and lukaku picks his games.
I know he scored but he has given them one as well.
Martinez needs to show some bottle at half time and hook him for ross.
Just hope martinez gets them up for the 2nd half and not just shut his eyes an hope for the best

Are you actually mad ?

He's scored a goal and helped massively to set up the other ffs.

 

[Del]

Naismith playing poor out of position shocker

 

[rochdaleblue]

Ross or piennar on for ossie please. Don't think I can recall a game when Coleman has been so quiet. Playing with the wind should help us.

 

[Eggs]

Agreed, we aren't playing through his side, mostly down the middle.

...no natural winger for him to link with, Naismith and Osman both have licence to move inside. Not normal shape for us.

 

[Mozza1987]

We look great when we go forward quickly, look like scoring. However we are way too slow the majority of the time, need to pass it quicker

 

[JAYTALITY]

The goal Lukaku scored, that's what I love about his type of player if they put it on target it's a good chance it's going in regardless of the shot. The great forwards seem to do this.

 

[ianefc]

Lukaku with two good touches in the build up to the first goal.

Nobody mentioned that while slating his touch though.

Then in the second goal (which he scored), he had a very good touch in the build up again.

Sell him. The tit.

He is a profesional footballer, don't give praise too easy to justify a point. If he pulled the ball down from over his head from a long ball then fair enough after that he is meant to be a top end footballer and should be able to do.

 

[COYB]

Great bit off play going forward a little when we have
but its frustrating me now with all that 'playing from the back '
beginin looked bright got the goal straight away would think its one off them weel smash these then go from playing from the back concede shouldnt we be using the passing at back
in the middle / further up the pitch?

[ShaggyReAL]

If Martinez keeps Peinaar on the bench I'll be happy. I really really don't want to see him in this game. We are already turning the ball over like crazy.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Draw written all over it. Midfield is non existent. Barry and Osman too slow to play in an unprotected midfield three. Barkley Pienaar and Besic on please.

 

[Del]

Pienaar and Ross for Naismith and Osman and we piss this

 

[BlueToff]

Harsh is is not a right of a 3 type player

Mate I love Nessi, he's just raised the bar in the last season - he did well for the second goal and yeh, had good chance - but just been a bit sloppy at times. Although tbh, only Barry and Eto'o haven't been. We've been ok - but we're so frustrating when we sit back - we have carved them open with ease when we've imposed ourselves. They've only troubled us because we've gifted them the chances
