Nobody looks consistently special, even the top three. I’d say in an ideal world we end up with Ipswich third and Norwich sixth.

Agreed. Also while its all well and good saying that we need a run of form going into the playoffs, that good run of form could also result in us narrowly missing out on autos and the deflation that comes with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Lots of possession. But we created less than half the efforts on goal that we did in the first half. It's not that we weren't looking for a chance. But mainly from safer, direct options, rather than creating and driving the game to get more. As Martin's system doesn't recognise things like momentum and human elements, it will continue to remain a mystery to him, why we let Coventry (and everyone else) back into it. Any Coventry pressure in that game was self inflicted. After the subs we looked happy enough to shore it up and stick with what we had. Inviting a few more attacks, where the players ended up congratulating Baz. I thought that the side would be more driven tonight, and hoped the Subs would know they had to be the same level. Mara was aware of where to be around their box. But nothing really came near him, as we'd given up being able to put an attack together with AA and Adams off. Defensively, Mara was poor. Rothwell was quiet again, while Charles was tidy enough, but isn't there to launch attacks really. Stu gave us some needed level headedness, while we didn't use Fraser much. Basically pretty disjointed after the switches. We lost a focal point when Adams went off. Aribo did lots well, with s few of those mixed bag moments. Both off meant we had no strength left in the side. Another reason they got more of the ball. Happy with the three points. Some early signs in the game of what Martin had been talking about in the press conference. But lots more of the same issues later on. And he's going to have to come with some solid instructions when making changes. We've players with particular strengths. If we're going to change things around, we can keep the system but look to maximise those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone say he was shit? He had a good game. Thought we played pretty well overall. Created enough chances to make it comfortable and then really limited them to only one real shot on target. The penalty decision was laughable, could see it wasn't one from the other end of the ground. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
