    Pearce gave up on his recovery too. Osh has played far better than him. 
  • No surprise that  we had 6 clean sheets neither of these or Prately were playing centre half 
    Wait til Inniss and Famewo are fit again - we’ll show our bouncebackability then.
  • This is on bowyer once again, negative line up produces a negative display.

    it could be 3 or 4 quite easily.

    They have so much space and time around our box..
  • Decent game despite the score

    How is that a corner?
  • Valley Pass commentary is so passive & PC - not a bad word said - Steve Brown at least stated it like it was - shite!
  • Albie's gonna be hooked at hf
    To be fair,he cant really complain too much

    How shit are we honestly? 6/7 or seven of these players should be nowhere near the starting eleven. What do we do all week in training

    Why does a striker (Wahington) give it to a midfielder (Morgan) instead of just hitting it.
    Presumably hoping that he then holds it up of plays it wide to allow Washington to get back into the box!

    Our best performance for about 5 weeks, just completely let down by a moment of stupidity

    Accrington are just better than us.

    So frustrating that our best attackers are sat on the bench again. We're relying on Aneke to get us back into it.

    There's a fundamental flaw in our midfield, regardless of team selection, formation, opposition. When we lose the ball teams are on our back four almost unopposed within 2 or 3 touches. We have a really soft underbelly at the moment.

    Overall, that was better though admittedly from a very low baseline.

    We're so unthreatening, it's embarrassing.

    Don’t you realise.....

    A. We nearly closed down couple months ago...
    B. We had to scrape a team together
    C. We have injury’s 
    D. We should be grateful Bowyer hasn’t left.
    E. The squad didn’t have a pre season

    Is there anyway, this could be automatically added whenever we let another goal in. Just to remind us why we are so fecking awful, and only aspire to have a side that can play like —MAN CITY sorry ACCRINGTON.

    That's a good idea

  • More likely to go 2-0 down than equalise. Pearce having a very bad game doesn't help, our midfield losing out too much on the second ball. Oshilaja is solid though.

    Can we now stop playing out from the defence, we get nowhere with that and we are not premier league quality to be able to play such a way

    System did not work. Back Four is too deep, midfield three played man-for-man and were pulled all over the place, leaving a big space for the opposition to play into in front of the Centre Backs. Washington was too detached from the two wingers. 

    The pattern of play was obviously based on getting the ball wide to Millar and Smyth, who looked lively and caused problems. But we lapsed into playing long balls up to Washington, who had no chance against three centre backs. 

    The midfield three were outplayed. 

    Need to change it to 3-5-2 and get the Back three to push up ten yards. We need two up front. Washington is a second striker operating as a lone Centre Forward. He needs to play off a partner.

    Think Gilbey's had long enough since his injury now. Looks poor, how the hell is he ahead of Maddison or Williams.

    Midfield 3 all shit

    can we get Ronnie and MM on to play with the scouse fella please 
  • It's a been lot better but Accrington look the stronger for me.

    Absolute rubbish, one pass through the midfield. 4-4-2 needed.
  • Defenders playing in wrong positions - concede shite goals
    Defenders playing in correct positions - concede shite goals

    Nothing changes ...
    Maybe players out of position is a weak argument and its always been the players themselves that the focus should have been on rather than the Manager of late!!

    EVERY goal we've conceded of late has been down to weak individuals making the sort of errors they shouldnt be making at this any level above U9s

    Really not a fan of Pearce. For a team hoping to push for promotion, he is not the answer. Absolutely crazy how much we miss Innis and Famewo
    It's not only are they better than anyone else who has played there we haven't played Pratley and Watson in front of any other pair either 
    Didn’t really understand a word of that, could be just me I have a headache and CAFC isn’t making it any better 😂
