I'm almost starting to wish we hadn't signed Adam Matthews again3
-
I'm starting to really think LB is trying to prove a point and is sticking to his dont concede policy. Trouble is we all know we will concede. He has to change his outlook and rapid imo or we will start drifting down the league. Where the hell does he think the goals are going to come from ? He repeatedly leaves any creative players on the bench ffs2

Yeah I thought I'd repeat it on here to try and reassure myself tooCroydon said:
Think you said this on the preview thread, and I'm clinging to that being Bow's reasoning!ForeverAddickted said:I'm not surprised either that Maddison and Williams are on the bench
Bowyer again explained the other day that the Hull pitch is shite, so its going to be a proper ugly game today, cant see much passing on the deck

What a sterile, one-paced and one-dimensional line up. Sadly, however, it is also a predictable one from Lee Bowyer.
The omission of Maddison - one of the best flair players in this division - is utterly baffling.16 -
Looking at that clip of the players on the pitch, I'd agree with him.ForeverAddickted said:I'm not surprised either that Maddison and Williams are on the bench

They should be contacting TS for advice on lawnmowers.1 -
0-0 ht, 1st half shit, nick it 2-0 2nd half0

And that’s why I haven’t bought the stream today!Defensive, negative & hasn't learnt a thing!1

Yes, pretty much as expected.Talal said:I think it's fair to say Bowyer isn't swayed by public opinion going by that line up.
Bowyer said he prefers Pratley to Oshilaja at CH.
He said he prefers Matthews to Purrington as an attacking LB and he wanted Maatsen's movement in midfield.
So we knew they were unlikely to change.
I was hoping Maddison for JFC, but Bowyer obviously prefers the defensive option.
The trouble is our tactics appear so obvious every game, as it's the same plan, with a possible different formation.
Keep it tight and bring on positive subs from 60 mins onwards.
I feel anything could happen today.

No idea what Bowyer's thinking with that negative line up. Why do our most threatening players always start on the bench? Weird tactics... Hope to be proved wrong though.2

Maddison doesn't need a good pitch. He just needs a yard of space and the ball to fall to him13

Its joke reasoning. Was the valley pitch shite when we picked pretty much the same team last week?Croydon said:

Bowyer clearly has an issue playing 'flair' players and it's becoming increasingly obvious.0 -
The first two names many of us would put on the team sheet for this game are not even starting. Mind you, I wasn't expecting them to be.0

Yes, because last week worked soooooo well....😄😄😄Talal said:God is it Pratley centre back and Matthews on the left again.0 -
Well if that's his policy it's not working, as we've let in 2 goals in each of our last 3 matches!AndyG said:I'm starting to really think LB is trying to prove a point and is sticking to his dont concede policy.

I hope our lot rise to the occasion. We need something out of today's game given the points dropped in recent matches.0

Bloody hell this place is so miserable. Potential for massive amounts of egg on faces at 5pm. COYR8

Well Matthews won us a corner that led to the first goal and got an assist for the other soooooogolfaddick said:

So how are you justifying the team choice by claiming its because of a crap pitch, but then point out we've got a nice pitch, where we also essentially played the same first XI.ForeverAddickted said:

It makes no sense mate.0 -
Well, you know the stats for that one don't you...Scoham said:Overly defensive side, real struggle if we go 1-0 down.0 -
Why buy the bloody flair players in the first place?0
-
Have a word Curbs ...
Three fullbacks, no pace, no creativity, no width - Maddison, Smyth and Willo need to start.0 -
Yeah with that in mind I've gone 2-1 hull, maddison last goalForeverAddickted said:
Guess it depends if Bowyer sees these players are being more effective as impact playersdanny777 said:Maddison plays well, scores, so is left out.
Didn't the same happen to Williams and Purrington earlier? Any others?
Maybe it's meant as motivation.
"If you want a rest, earn one by scoring a goal"
Take Aneke for example, we've been calling for him to constantly start but hasnt scored for Charlton unless its off the bench...1 -
Assuming its a back 4 I would have preferred to see one of Maddinson or Williams ahead of JFC. I am a fan of JFC but I think Him Mattsen and Morgan will all occupy the same space. Mattsen and Morgan could be a really interesting partnership though.0

Lose this today and I think Sandgaard will be asking bowyer some serious questions.

It's alright soon we'll have a 31 year old striker who's never played in England before strolling around with no service unless he's prepared to come back to just outside his own penalty area to get the ball!1
-
I've just tuned in and seen the team.
Honestly, I'm not sure what to think about Bowyer anymore. Matthews, in particular, at left back is mind-blowingly stupid.
Maddison - with a point to prove against Hull - would have been my first name on the team sheet.
Good luck Lee. I honestly hope the players put in a performance for you. Otherwise, you are tempting fate big time.1
