Fucking dreadful. They're letting us down.

larry_david · 2026-01-17T13:18:53+0000

We have a huge midfield problem

There isnt one

Absolute shite.

not that good

TomRad85 · 2026-01-17T13:19:03+0000

I'd bring on Yang, Wright and BTA. Also wish we had a half decent LB to bring on as Dasilva has been all over the place.

This team really needs a goal off someone's arse.

The squad actually needs some proper money spent on it.

mmttww · 2026-01-17T13:19:14+0000

We're in the game. Didn't think I'd be saying that after 15 mins. Grimes needs to step up. Rudoni either needs to come off or sort his head out. Time to earn you money, Frank.

Painful first half viewing. The idea that we’re suddenly going to become good again is looking like a more and more distant dream as the games go on.

Yeah but opta, hard run, home games blah blah blah

CovLis86 · 2026-01-17T13:19:23+0000

We just need some real turn of luck to get us out of this. Every bounce, every decision going against us. Just let us have a couple flukey own goals or whatever, just something to give us the boost as doesn't look like players are going to manage it themselves.

Winny the Bish · 2026-01-17T13:19:23+0000

I don’t even think we’ve attacked badly. We’ve made openings and had half chances.

But the defending - especially our transition defence - has been genuinely embarrassing. Carved open on multiple occasions, Leicester players finding space in our own penalty area is unforgivable and it’s happened 4 or 5 times.

Chris1987 · 2026-01-17T13:19:27+0000

Rudderless . What exactly is the game plan ?

Without being called a troll this is it really.

JoeCCFCPUSB · 2026-01-17T13:19:33+0000

Our midfield looks like it has no legs.

They want this more than us.

All bite has gone from us. Feels like the kind of thing you find out years later Ellis Simms fucked everyone’s missus.

Liquid Gold · 2026-01-17T13:19:36+0000

We’re fucking shit. Glad we’ve got 50 points

Paul Anthony · 2026-01-17T13:19:37+0000

Christ, that was an awful half. Our midfield looks non existent, our defence looks weaker than cheap toilet paper. We've got problems and at the moment, we're not looking like we can find any answers.

It's like they've forgotten everything they were doing well. I guess some of that is down to teams having a better idea of how to play us, but it also seems like we need to take ten touches every time the other side needs one or two.

As do all managers , he has to find a way to turn this around

Maybe when the ref's go our way

djr8369 · 2026-01-17T13:19:48+0000

Gone from looking like breaking records to looking like we won’t make play offs.

MAFF · 2026-01-17T13:19:56+0000

That was an absolute disgrace.

jto123 · 2026-01-17T13:20:15+0000

We were great first half of the season, but it is clear now we have been worked out tactically. Lampard needs to change because we can kiss autos goodbye.

It's not luck
Take off the Sky Blue glasses. This has been awful

MacReady · 2026-01-17T13:20:29+0000

Piss flaps.

Earlsdon_Skyblue1 · 2026-01-17T13:20:37+0000

We are too passive and weak where it counts. I would bring Eccles on as a minimum. BTA if we can as well.

Another game I am finding very frustrating because we don't seem up for it. Mentality seems well off.

Hopefully we can nick a goal and that can kick us up the arse to turn it around.

RoysterE17 · 2026-01-17T13:20:38+0000

Our midfield is absolutely terrible. Can't control the ball enough to just put pure pressure on opposition and then completely non existent when getting attacked!! Grimes and torp need to get there shit together!! Hate this press we have developed aswell with the fw and am just sitting there ready to get passed round

Nick · 2026-01-17T13:20:38+0000

Get it forward down the wings. Stop to let their players get back, shit cross or back to defenders.

Yes King needs to find some spare change down the back of the sofa.

Ashdown · 2026-01-17T13:20:52+0000

Simms just lumbers around waiting for the ball to come to him. Never runs towards a cross or a pass.

Esoterica · 2026-01-17T13:21:06+0000

Grimes has been absolutely awful.

He's too deep, too often recently. Torp has got acres to cover alone, that's why we look better with Eccles in 10 than Rudoni, because Eccles is helping out in central midfield and the whole formation links together better. Esse is compounding the issue by playing so high, which looks to be his natural game. Dangerous when he gets the ball but we're playing 5-1-1-3 at times, 2-3-5 at others.

Grimes and the fullbacks need to be way more in sync about who is pushing forward, and when.

Very harsh. Think he has linked up play well on a few occasions today.

Sky_Blue_Daz · 2026-01-17T13:21:16+0000

Biggest half of the season . Saka for esse crosses into the box utilise emc on the wing more

An entire team of cucks? Earlsdon will be delighted.

SIR ERNIE · 2026-01-17T13:21:38+0000

Massive 45 now.
Get Wright on straight away.

Apart from the headers as he's won and when he held it up for rudoni.

We need to play off him
