    Match Thread Coventry City - Sheffield United Match Thread - Tuesday 4th Nov

    I think Haji has suffered since we’ve gone to 4-4-2 but BTA has thrived so it’s a conundrum as to what we do. Simms was unlucky to be dropped in the first place so think it makes sense putting him back in. If not on Tuesday, definitely away at Stoke. KKH and Wolfenden will come good over time...

    Match Thread Wrexham AFC - Coventry City Match Thread - Friday 31st Oct

    The obvious gap is the lack of wingers and AMs. Unfortunately, these are the players you tend to sub off the most and in an ideal world, you need to be able to change your wingers, a striker and an AM/second striker. That’s 4 subs with another to cover a defence and midfield. This is why I was...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Sheffield United Match Thread - Tuesday 4th Nov

    I was worried about this fixture the most leading up to the international break. Realistically, we need to turn the knife into a flailing team and manager shot of authority. It’s got to be 3 points from this one! 3-1.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    That we’ve been preparing for Jan (as a whole) and had been in contact with a winger’s representatives. No hint of a name or league they play in as far as I recall.

    Speaking to the 'elders' in my wider group of friends talk about the 80s as if it were the wild west and Saturdays being scenes reminiscent of 'The Warriors'... Glad I weren't around for that!

    Out of curiosity, was it a safer time back in the 60s?

    Which is to be expected when your society aging because demographically, younger people commit much more crime than older people. An important consideration to how people adapt to avoid being victimised. For example, anyone with young women in their lives (partners, relatives and so on) buy...

    Kieffer Moore

    Keiffer Moore and Morris both scoring hattricks will have the usual suspects out. Is Keiffer Moore a player who’s better than we’ve got and worth breaking our wage structure for? The answer is no. Wrexham done to us what we’ve done a few times this season: massively over performing xG and...

    Could not be better

    This is without a doubt overestimating Wrexham’s threat here. For context, Watford had 3 ‘big chances’ against us last week and scored the one (the pen). In contrast, EMC’s goal was the only big chance created in the game from both teams on Friday. 0.44 v 0.98 xG in the first half. Even taking...

    Based on what? We created the best chance in the first half, had more corners, more shots and deserved to be 1-0 up at half time. The data supports this. Second half, the 100% deserved a goal but scoring 3 goals from less than 1 xG is over performing. 3 goals from 4 shots on target… It was a...

    Kieffer Moore

    Wrexham’s xG was 1.41 versus 1.56 for us (FotMob). They didn’t cut us to pieces and as you point out, subpar defending lets us down. Particularly from Bidwell and Wolfenden. Wolfenden probably lacks chemistry with KKH and Kitching and vice versa. Whereas Bidwell has looked like a regressing...

    Could not be better

    You’re making a habit of jumping the gun on things so I’d suggest just relaxing. Allen is a 4th choice CM and Bidwell has started 1 game… After Xmas 2024 to the end of the season, we won the 3rd most points in the league and that’s without winning away from March. The squad is stronger than...

    Could not be better

    If we are talking specifics, you said we lost the game because of injuries. Which is a knee-jerk thing to say because it was only one player out with injury. Sure, include Rudoni if you want but we’d just won 6 consecutive games without him. We went 1-0 up so should’ve been in a good position...

    Could not be better

    Rudoni being out isn’t why we lost to Wrexham, we’ve just won 6 games on the bounce without him. Of the players listed, only 1 player was unavailable - Thomas. MVE was a suspension and will be back on Tuesday. Of the players that came into the side, they’ve barely played with one another and...

    Could not be better

    One player was injured... How often have we lost under Lampard from a winning position? Off the top of my head, it’s around 3-5 games. Agree on the difference between automatic and POs which is why I think we need to be proactive in Jan and get 2-3 players. Keeping things in perspective, 4...

    Could not be better

    That’s a little harsh. The depth for the defence, CMs and strikers is good. We’re just thin on the ground in relation to the creators; wingers and no AM to come in when there’s injuries will cost us points. The defence looked disjointed and upon reflection, that’s probably down to changing 3/4...

    Kieffer Moore

    Beau probably needs to adapt to the Championship and probably England as whole, it is slightly odd that Bidwell seemed to be 3rd choice on Day 1. Perhaps he’s struggling to settle in? It’ll all play out in time, I’m confident he’ll turn good.

    Awfull tactics from lampard

    I suppose they do have v similar functions and whilst he’s a good stand in, the balance isn’t there imo. Torp works well with Grimes because he’s more creative and carries a significant long shooting threat. Allen is good at winning any loose or second ball because he’s got more energy than the...

    Awfull tactics from lampard

    Not until Rudoni is back. If anything, we seen how placid our attack was after we took the 2 strikers for more midfielders. We also ended up conceding more goals. I’m reasonably sure we’d have played 3-4-3 had Thomas been fit and available. Squad depth caught up us imo.

    Who the fuck plays CB on Tuesday

    Lati will be a lot more rusty than Wolf… Changing 3 of 4 defenders is never a good idea but seems like Lampard was forced into 2 of those changes, perhaps a 3rd with JDS being ill in the week. My observations: - Bidwell seems past it - lack of chemistry between KKH-Wolf and Wolf-Kitching
