In a game where we have dominated the ball and had fullbacks in attacking areas he is null & void. Should have been off in place of Garner of whom could have gone to RB. badaids 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but probably good that our next 2 matches are away, as more incompetence at home might make for a sullen mood at Goodison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btay Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 Well, it’s hard enough going to United away without giving away 2 penalties. Theres no more comfort in saying we played well or we created plenty of chances. Not going to blame Dyche for this one, players are not doing enough. Tactics wise I will say that we need to find a way to get away from Doucoure & Godfrey in the starting team. Doucs - I love his running & work ethic but he offers us nothing in build up play or ball retention. Godfrey is just a rash defender with limited technical ability. Our strikers will surely relish having Gomes playing that 10 role as he can see & make passes. badaids 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badaids Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 Could have been 4 legit pens today to them. I can stomach losing, but I can't deal with the fact that we always find a way to balls everything up. Like we have Terry Fuckwits in every position on and off the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He helps us lose. We’ve seen that for several matches in a row. As to Gomes, I hope he can stay healthy, and I like his play. Going foward. Protects the ball with his bulk, some really pinpoint passing. If in the lineup for Doucouré and thus up the pitch, good. Just can’t think he will defend. Nor can he play 95 minutes.

RuffRob Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 It can't be under estimate what 'confidence' brings to a team. It's the single biggest thing that's missing for us at the moment. Desperately need to chalk up a win to get bring some of that back. must now hope for other results to go our way to keep weekend from being a total disaster!!

You would expect wingers and midfielders to be chipping in here and there, it not just strikers, everybody's lost the final touch if front of goal.

Palfy Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 There’s not much to add to what’s already been said really, if we don’t start converting our chances then we go down it’s quite as simple as that really. Our next game we need to change the formation to try and change the outcome, we can’t change the players we are stuck with what we have, irrespective of whether we think there good enough or not we’re stuck with them. Instead of going out with the same formation every game, let’s try something different like a 442 or a 352, Dyche’s got 3 weeks to work with the players on different formations, I hope he takes the opportunity to do it.

It'll be the same players playing whatever the system. The same players who aren't/can't convert the chances. It's a proper dilemma really.

I love a 352/343 formation but our team is just technically awful. Plus it means either Keane or Godfrey as the third CB, unless Dyche does with Coleman. Agree with you though mate, 3 weeks of solid work & I really hope we see something after it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
