Bluesteel Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 International break sucked all momentum from us again. We are comfortable on the ball but can’t exploit any spaces created as we are so slow! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwokenGiant Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Atmosphere and pace of a reserve game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee A Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Painfully slow, no pace, lots of pointless backwards passing and no threat whatsoever posed to Ipswich. If it carries on, it'll be interesting to see what, specifically about the referees performance Carlos blames it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you seem to take offence at any mention of the international break (which is wierd btw). But we look a completely different side than we did before it. It could work in our favour if we had been playing badly/had injuries and has in the past but it clearly hasn’t this time. We seem very fragile confidence wise going forward.

It hasn't stopped other teams winning so for us to anyway blame it is pathetic. It can't be used as an excuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to the fact other teams work hard during the international break, Wednesday don't, nice week off then a steady second week, easy easy ride under Carlos, a joke pre season and no continued fitness work throughout the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol City ran their blood to watter. Baz Reach and maybe Hunt are the only ones who seem to put the yards in.

I don’t think I’ve ever said it’s the sole reason for our problems but they have affected us this season. Its not an excuse, it’s a fact. We were playing better before the break and have seemingly lost momentum after it. Just as we had Hooper scoring freely before the previous one only for him not to afterwards. If you’re playing well, you don’t want to stop playing. Conversely, Bolton had an upturn in form after one of the breaks earlier in the season having time to regroup probably helped them. Id say that the sides who haven’t let it effect them are better sides than us in terms of maintaining consistency.

N0rtherner Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 20 minutes riding out the Ipswich offensive, then the next 15-20 gradually getting our passing game established and "lowering" the pace of the game... which sucks that we rely on doing. But apart from possession in our own half and watching a meaningless tiki taka between our back 6 that just wouldn't prod up the pitch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
