Bluesteel Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I don't understand why we played the way we did in the playoffs. I think it's unfortunate that our first fixture was away at deepdale as I'd say that is the kind of nightmare fixture we didn't need off the back of last season. I think a lot of what happened yesterday was down to Preston themselves as they well and truly have Carlos's number at their place. They don't allow any time on the ball and they are also very strong. I would prefer Wednesday to play like that rather than trying the seek the perfect team balance/dynamic that when clicks is perfect but only clicks once every so often. We should be able to deal with this kind of team and we need to be able to. But I wouldn't be surprised if we play much better against a team that basically isn't Preston!

Hawkowl Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 (edited) I for one have never seen such a insipid,turgid performance. It was uninspiring and totally bizarre. The straw that broke the camels back though was the half time tea was only tepid. I am now totally dyspeptic about a frightfully repugnant display.

trumbullowl Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I noticed how long before us Preston were out for the second half. We kept them waiting. I didn't like it, thought it meant CC and the players couldn't be 'on the same page'. Whatever took so long to thrash out, it certainly didn't show any results, it was Preston who were so obviously more up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" What was the plan yesterday which would have allowed our centre midfield to at least cope ,or better, impose ourselves on PNE " Love to hear his answer I'd still love an explanation as to why he ballsed the play offs up and why in God's great name did he bring Dave on.

I think we defended better and many people thought a shut out was part of the plan then, but going forward yeah. We didn't look as capable at either end on Saturday.

Whatever the game-plan he had in mind since that wonderful run, it is horrible and more importantly it isn't working.

In the play offs neither were fit, neither was FF was was trying to do the link role but he drifts quite a lot too. All the money spent and it comes down to that link between midfield and attack as the keystone to everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
