It happened several times last season and unless defensive duties are removed from him it will happen several more times this season.
We always perform better with 2 out and out wingers. Why sign Dembelè if he doesn’t fit into Critch’s formations?
(Edited) Suggest you watch the highlights again and pay particular attention to their second goal. Then tell me about his positional awareness for that goal? He didn't need to track back he was already there but just allowed the player to stroll past him and knock it into the net.
It doesn't bother him look at CJ and Connolly
square pegs and all that shite.....
Leave ceej to his own devices and his positional sense and awareness is pretty damn good, but I think there is a lot of critchley set patterns that all the players are trying to implement and generally failing.
Yep, CJ deffo didn't do his RB duties with that goal. Oh hang, there may be a reason......Contrary mary being his usual self. What an absolute joke of a post.

I've said it before on here and I'll say it again: wingers are specialists these days. There will be games where CJ, as an out and out winger, will be unplayable - scaring the opposition to death. Look how often teams would have three men swarming around Josh Bowler. Then McCarthy wants him playing out of deep and he fails big time. It's the same with CJ. He's not a versatile Danny Coid who can play from any position in the out-field. Put a full back behind him and let him operate where he's at his best....Mr C.
Well this is awkward. 3 brilliant games in the last 4He was the best thing since sliced bread for a lot of people on here after the Wigan game, I said he'd had 1 of his 2-3 decent games per season and he'd be back to being crap for the next 15 games.....
1/15
He was good yesterday. I’d not call it brilliant. Certainly not brilliant for the last 3 games. 7/8 out of 10 opposed to his previous 3 games where he was 4 out of 10. Casey and Husband were brilliant.
Some of these people saying brilliant might want to watch him for most of the 2nd half wandering around like a lost child mostly not having a clue what to do in defence.
Scott, did you go to Wycombe? Because it's extremely awkward calling someone brilliant in a turgid 2-0 loss away from home. And he didn't play one of those 4. As he was rested against Barrow.
You might want to watch the second half again yourself TBH.
So oh righteous one but I have....
Some great 'knee jerk plum' posts from last month on this board but @WeststandRob takes the biscuit!
Always find myself agreeing with whatever appraisal you come up with, SK, and this is no exception. So, yes, I think it can safely be acknowledged there has been a marked upturn in his level of performance, but can people please try to maintain some sense of balance and perspective when it comes to the wider question of CJ and his game generally. His contribution in matches has significantly improved from what it was only a short time ago, but those fans currently engaged in elevating him to 'worldbeater' status are, in my humble opinion, jumping the gun a little. I just hope the improvement we are now starting to witness will continue with its upward momentum, but, what we mustn't forget, is just how low the bar was set before this most welcome development began to emerge ...
what? After over 3 seasons with us and you now think it'll soon be time that you're gnna be proved right. Not sure that's something to brag about. You sound like another one who can't be honest and come on here after all the poor performances he's had but after a couple of back to back good performances you think you can now have a go at fans who've been critical of him and his many poor performances that he's had.
It’s about balance and some of the comments made about CJ have lacked that over the years.
You call everyone dishonest if they don't agree with you . I have been saying all along that if the ball is put in front of CJ to run on to ,he would be a different player . Most of last season the Blackpool players have been incapable of passing forward ,just backward then hoofing. Give your head a shake and you start being honest ,CJ has had very little service put in front of him and its not been all his fault that his games have been poor.
nope, as per usual you get it wrong. I'm saying people should be honest with themselves and be brave enough to come on here and say when he's been poor which has been many many times since he's been with us. But too many choose to stay quiet only commenting after a good performance by him. Wilbur is right in that he says it's about balance which is why I made my comment about being honest and commenting on both sides of his performance.
Ok ,fair enough , it must be just me that lies.
The funny thing about that is he is a liability in our half on the whole.
This is complete made up nonsense again. You’re letting your imagination and negative bias get in the way of objectivity.
It's not nonsense and go and contrary on someone else.This is complete made up nonsense again. You’re letting your imagination and negative bias get in the way of objectivity.
On the whole, he’s been extremely assured from a defensive perspective… Had he come anywhere close to being a ‘liability’ he’d have long since been replaced.
He regularly wins back possession and recycles it (if that’s what the phrase for winning the ball and turning it into an attack is called these days)
