dunlopp9987 Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Need a goal in the first 15-20, otherwise they're gonna dig in more than they already are for a point. Wish we had an option to come on for Gordon, but I'd rather see him than Bernard. Even with Gordon not offering anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted December 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 they offer nothing, we have the lion's share we just can't find a way through. gordon isn't offering much of anything, everything is going through the right side with iwobi and doucoure. we need to get gordon going or put someone on who can add something like bernard. davies doing the best for me chicagoblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with Gordon not offering anything gordon has pace but in weather like this against a parked bus we need quality passing and vision not pace. bernard offers that.

Biggest credit so far goes to Davies. He seems to be learning how to shield a ball when closed down, which is usually his biggest weakness. Looks to have an extra gear tonight. Sadly I think that's more to do with the quality of the opposition, I love the guy and he'd be a top championship player but he's not an option for us (apart from in games like this) if we're going to move on.. chicagoblue, dunlopp9987 and Sibdane 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Unless they’ve already accepted they’re going down, they have to come out and go for it. All the onus is on them to attack, and we’ve shown we can absorb it quite well up until now (which will now be jinxed). Hopefully all that twill mean there’s more space to exploit on the counter.

It's obvious what his role is tonight, but when asked to play more box to box, he offers very little going forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
