Don’t think he’d be vindictive about it in that way, he’s just got no idea how the attacking patterns he wants to generate absolutely ruin our shape and solidity.

Ain’t working is it.

I can’t believe we spent last season being so bad defensively and he’s managed to make us even worse

 

[jd1981]

And we might have scored 4 or 5 against them. Waste of time speculating.

Also pointless speculating that it’ll all be ok because we’ve not played lesser teams yet

 

[Templeton Peck]

It's two games chaps. Two. RAN has played like a L2 player and you can't legislate for that. It won't happen very often. Semedo will come in for Doc.

 

[Jinky]

Absolutely. And in fact, he’s made it even worse. He’ll make it about not having the right players rather than admitting his own mistakes.

Think that’s a bit harsh. He’s generally owned up to his mistakes while also commenting that the players themselves can improve.

I never said that. I implied we wouldn't be as bad against lesser attacks.

to be fair, not sure what else we can do as fans at this point. We have no control over what goes on.

Clinton Morrison the oracle of modern defending

 

[Haggstone]

we are still unable to stop them from looking like they will score every time they go forwards, even when the game is done and they are playing at 50%. Real cause for concern.

So he knows nothing about football too?

Countdown to 3 ATB.

3 more games

So because he played football then he's the oracle?

Do you think he’s watched Kilman play that frequently to give a conclusive opinion? I doubt it very much.

Eh?

I’m commenting on our inability to stop them from scoring every time they go forwards. My post has nothing to do with Killman.

Think that post was meant for Beaver/AKA Max Kilman's family member making out he's the Maidstone Maldini.

 

[jd1981]

Eh?

Wrong reply sorry

He is a pundit. Someone thinks he is worth listening to.
