Beat Birmingham 5-4 other week, but was 2-0 up after 20 but conceded 3 goals in last 30 mins. They played Cardiff at home, 3-0 up and concede 3 goals after the 60th minute. They just have a tendency to start leaking goals once their heads go. Same against Arsenal this week. Battered em for 45 minutes, had 15 shots and couldn't score then fell apart second half.

Was it Ayling or Ailing. He was knackered. Very true. He barely made an attempt to even get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowbelly Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Could Monk be our Colin? Not always easy on the eye but effective. Annoying when it happens against us but sweet when we’re doing the smashing and grabbing late on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absorb the pressure til they tire later on then hit them with a sucker punch.. I think managers have sussed them and it may be they have a much more inconsistent 2nd half of the season. we live in hope. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are, at our best, very well suited to the championship. We can play direct, alternatively we have some very good players at this level, a good blend. two outstandingly well 'weighted' passes led to the goals, nuhiu, and bannan.

Emerson Thome Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 What was the xG for the match? I think every fan wants to see good football, but sometimes fans buy in to the hype and mistake good football for the centre backs constantly passing to each other in their own half. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about time-wasting though... classic sour grapes move Too right mate. We are such a 'time wasting' side we scored in the last minute of added time when most teams would have took it to the corner flag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pj owl Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 If we were that flippin good at time wasting we would probably be a lot closer to the top 2 and not have thrown away so many points in the last few minutes of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sethman75 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 If we were a "long ball, time wasting side" 3 seasons back, we would of beat Hull and got promoted. Take a win everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nut Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) 2 hours ago, FlyingOwl said: We played our game in a way to frustrate Leeds. However, both goals were well worked & if Leeds had scored them they’d be tweeting about ‘Bielsa Ball’. I hope more teams get ‘Monked’ this season. I think they will get Monked a few more times this season. It's difficult to play their style for a full 90 minutes so they need to score early on when they're on top but their strikers aren't good enough to do this regularly so they will always be susceptible to losing late on in games. It's also hard to keep the intensity for a full season as we saw last year so unless they get a couple of forwards in, they may well fall away again like last season which would be lovely to see. I also like the expression 'Monked'. I hope we do it a few more times this season and it catches on. Edited January 12, 2020 by Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrie Madden Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 They should have been 1 up at half time because Harrison missed his sitter yet we only made 2 chances and scored 2 goals ? So Winnall missing from 5 yards with the goal at his mercy wasn't a "chance" then ? If they had a player like Bannan knocking long balls so perfectly weighted that Reach didn't have to break stride they would be purring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
