We carry no goal threat, and there's always a " farting around with it at the back" mistake waiting to happen.
Yes the squad is thin of attacking quality, but you also have to question the defensive coaching and how we're trying to play out from the back. It's the same as last week, with the centre backs trying to play out, then hoofing it.
Same old from us, start the season with one fit strike and toothless in attack. We were playing well until that point but one lapse in concentration and they are through on goal.
Yep, same old same old. They’ve have weeks to get a big unit in up front for May to feed off. We need more players urgently!
I thought we did ok that half as is the norm lately a mistake causes an unnecessary goal. If we can keep playing like we have 1st half I think we can still get something out of the game

Playing well is stretching things, Posh have looked more likely to score.
Poor touch by Camara there and then suddenly all our defenders are nowhere to be seen, Thomas followed the man and as he played it back, all 3 centre backs are in one side of the box and there's a gaping hole for them.
352 DOESN'T FUCKING WORK
A poor touch by Camara as you say which has nothing to do with the formation and we’re playing 4-3-3.
That's even worse then, because it means our left back was on the right hand side of the central defender when they pass that ball.
If it's really 433 then Asiimwe is pushing way higher than Thomas, and Jones is playing very wide for a centre back
Probably several mistakes in there for the goal, but there’s nothing unusual about a formation not being symmetrical with one of the full backs being more attacking than the other.
We have to sign a target man or it’s the same old shite
Running in behind is one of his qualities, helps stretch the pitch and gives space for our midfielders. In theory.
That’s if you hit balls beyond the centre halves to turn them around. We’re hitting it from deep in our own half onto their heads
There’s been multiple gone over their heads, including one May got on the end of and turned around and set up Payne for an attempt at goal
You seriously don’t think we need a target man?
I'd certainly like someone "big" up front. Doesn't have to be 6ft 4 or a target man.....but someone who can hold the ball up & bosses centre halves around. Like Kermorgant or even John Pearson back in the day.
Apart from Camara thinking he's Pele, that was actually a good first half. Holden stated we are no where near where we want to be and you can see that, get a striker, get Leaburn fit and we will be a threat, at the moment dominating the midfield is no good if we are not a threat in the box.
Decent cross lofted in from CBT, headed out towards Payne on the edge of the area, but his feet are planted and he cant adjust to collect the lose ball.
CBT now cuts in past two players, and shoots comfortably over the bar
