Rogerwyldesmullet Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Calm down calm down. Folk on here talking as though Jos wasn’t there at the DW or Griffin Park. On another day Fletch would have buried Hull on his own but didn’t, on another day Ipswich might have kept ten men on the pitch and toughed out a draw. Jos is doing well but the promble with Owlstalk which wrecked the forum for the last year of Carlos was Win = genius Loss = clueless Draw = dubious Most of the time you could get the impression there isn’t another team on the pitch who might play well might play poorly or be both at times. As as an old timer I am chuffed to bits to see Jos playing youngsters and he has made some brave team selections lately. That said, I’m still not sure he knows what his ideal style or best eleven is. Three years ago we blew Arsenal away in the League Cup and we are some way short of seeing that kind of performance under Jos the Boss. I personally think Westeood and Fessi should start but I can cope with him being a tinkerman so long as he doesn’t have any needless public Danny Wilson type spats which at the very least reduce the sell on prospects of valuable players. Great win, good end to the loan window and good start to the break. Personally think Onomah will pressure Joey tbh, not seen enough of Hector to have a view. Squad is good enough for top 8, hope tactics and form are good enough for top 6. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I don't know but perhaps I was watching a different game. Of course I'm pleased with 3 points at a ground which has not been a happy hunting ground, but I thought we were really poor at keeping the ball and for the most part our passing was wayward. I thought midfield completely allowed Reading the space to dominate and keep us in our own half for long periods. We just don't look like a unit; it's all too disjointed to me, albeit some individual performances were decent. Hopefully it will gel better and the new and returning players will turn us into a real threat and give us more cohesion. As I said, happy with the points but not a convincing team performance for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, happy with the points but not a convincing team performance for me. I feel similar. Really happy with the 9 points, but we’ve been patchy throughout. Today we were poor and scored 2 great goals against relegation fodder. Ipswich similar. Millwall was a really good performance. I’ll not start getting carried away just yet, just celebrate the wins and bemoan the losses...which will likely come when we face some better sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stopped even thinking of seeing Abdi, think he is myth bit like Atlantis and the holy trail. Don't think they will find any of them in my lifetime.

Lord Snooty Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Two fantastic team goals rather than relying on moments of individual sparkle. I'll take that as a forward step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squad is good enough for top 8, hope tactics and form are good enough for top 6. Love how this extremely good post, in the middle of all the nonsense, was ignored. I've given it a late plus. Funnily enough, I was recently wondering if I had dreamt all the 'Pelupessy will be a future captain' stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I still can’t believe someone recommended Jos and DC gave him the job. Absolutely baffling appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
