You referring to us or them pal?
This is a team of players who are bang average and being 8th most of the season reflects that.
and looked like they should have had a penalty too
Kyle Joseph did the best of the 4 when he came on. He at least looks comfortable when the ball comes to him. Decent run for the free-kick that created our only shot on target in the 2nd half.I thought we did OK first half in certain aspects. The 2nd half was up there with the worst performances I've seen from us. I love Dembele but even he had a stinker. The strikers are garbage, they all bring unique levels of 'garbageness'. Some can't run, some can't head, some can't pass but none of them can read the game or score. That's not to say we're providing them with chances but when they never hold the ball up and link with our midfield it all becomes very difficult. Roll on Tuesday, I can hardly wait.
We’ve given our worst player technically who has the footballing intelligence of a watermelon and the heart of a pea, 2 and a half years extra. A footballer who doesn’t want the ball. Briliant.
One of the worst player based decisions in Blackpool FC history.
Just imagine if we had a competent manager some of our players might look quite good .
I doubt it. To coin a phrase you can't polish a turd
I thought CJ's impression of a lamp post was first class.
Don't think it was. The Marvin one?
If its the ekpiteta challenge I'm in the South and it looked nothing he appeared to kick the ball. Cameras may show different.
And if you don’t cut in for the shot, what’s the point of ‘the system’? It can’t rely on a byline cross as his right foot is powder puff
I generally agree with most of your posts, but, respectfully, not this time, mate!
I agree, although in times gone by he has played much further forward as he no doubt should. He is without doubt a confidence player and that has disintegrated in the last few months.
.Why didn’t he start last week vs Wycombe ? We
I think, like most teams do, they got tighter on him. For once, we'd set up in a way that made that no real issue because that just left space for Carey who scored and nearly got a second. Kaddy did assist the goal tbf.
To be fair and I am the world's biggest fan of Dembele, he's absolute magic, he looked way off it in the two games prior and seemed shattered or carrying a knock. His touch was weirdly bad.
Exactly. He actually did put a couple of ok balls in today (when he wasn't letting the ball run out of play bless him
)but he never does that thing he used to of just charging at the box and absolutely smashing it. He was quite good at that. I can't remember the last time he did it.
Probably before he got his extended contract.
For a player who doesn't possess a trick, he did us like a kipper to get that...
And what were your thoughts on Cambridge Utd, can I ask?
I was on Moretti Balcony tbf
Don't know what you mean AK. The way he stormed into that 50/50 near the dugouts was pure Bravehart.
That wasn’t the worst of it for me.
I'm guessing he was as surprised as anyone when the contract was offered. He strikes me as anything but egotistical. Timid, more like. His training stats and levels of compliance will be a wet dream for Critchley though.
That was beyond belief, unless Coulson was struggling...
Great post that Pete. If only we’d had a manager with more ambition for the club the players and the fans we would be in the playoffs and feeling positive without a shadow of a doubt. Instead it all feels functional and hollow and we have next to no chance playing like we are, home or away.
