Weird comment with how awful Wright was on the left. Wouldn't be shocked if EMC starts next game.

When a team is deep wanting to defend the penalty area you need some aerial power, it is bizarre that Lampard didn't recognise this early doors in the game. Simms should have come on at half time.
I'd quite like him to if we insist on playing 433.Weird comment with how awful Wright was on the left. Wouldn't be shocked if EMC starts next game.

There's a case to be made that we should have matched their formation early on as we struggled to play our game as effectively as we'd like .Its not, its just not sky blue tinted lenses like you have.
We've done well to get where we are, but there are negative sides too coming to fruitition.
We were warned by a Derby fan that a lot of Lampards game is hoping on a bit of magic from individuals to make the difference. Theres a clear pattern of that happening recently. When Rudoni isn't on it, we dont really look great attacking wise.
I agree with this but Asante in my opinion brings very little Ellis for me is the better option as a central striker. WBA fans laughed their bollocks off when then they got the fee they sold him for .I think Simms and asante are neither good enough for where we want to be and its neither here or there who plays if it has to be between the 2
The idea that ellis makes us a better team always amuses me , a good striker scores 20 with the amount of balls we get into the box under frank
But what asante gives us is legs , I would probably have started eliis and got asante on against tired legs
Absolutely.There's a case to be made that we should have matched their formation early on as we struggled to play our game as effectively as we'd like .
Wright slipped numerous times as well. Got to make sure they’ve got right studs/blades for pitch type surely
Did they? I dont remember that.I agree with this but Asante in my opinion brings very little Ellis for me is the better option as a central striker. WBA fans laughed their bollocks off when then they got the fee they sold him for .
Their game plan worked.
Ref swallowed every drop too.
Literally like Burnley again.
What were the results like while he was out injured?Its not, its just not sky blue tinted lenses like you have.

Beat stoke last kick of the game, lost to Derby beat SunderlandWhat were the results like while he was out injured?
Jay DeSilva had a good game I thought.
I think people just like singing the song mate

Maybe your memory isn't so good nowadays considering how you regularly forget to admit when you're wrong. Oh and additionally my sister and the five members of her immediate family are Baggies season ticket holders. But we all cannot of course know as much as you about fans we know nothing about as you can we ?Did they? I dont remember that.
I literally live in West Bromwich LOL most of the fans were fucked off they had sold him and replaced him with Devante cole.Maybe your memory isn't so good nowadays considering how you regularly forget to admit when you're wrong.

Let's be honest Tuesday we should have a little rehaul,
Simms wright
EMC. Rudoni. Sakamoto
Da Silva MVE
Binks kitchin Thomas
Wilson
Maybe we could play grimes instead of binks but I want to see more attacking play from our wing backs, I want them higher up the pitch and I don't want to see counter attacks break us apart like tonight.
The angle of the crosses we make are looking mostly for a player the back post or a late arrivalI’ve backed Simms since he’s been here but he’s clearly not going to make it with us. The fact he’s still not scoring with the change to how we play is very concerning.
Where have I shown sky blue tinted glasses? I said we did ok. Shame about mistakes. ties not over.Its not, its just not sky blue tinted lenses like you have.

Nonsense. They couldn't believe their luckI literally live in West Bromwich LOL most of the fans were fucked off they had sold him and replaced him with Devante cole.
What has Robins got to do with this?Where have I shown sky blue tinted glasses? I said we did ok. Shame about mistakes. ties not over.
Robins relied on McNulty magic in league 2 didn't he?
Gyokores 2 years ago?
Maybe your hearing aid is playing up.Nonsense. They couldn't believe their luck
Nonsense. They couldn't believe their luck
I'm fuming here it's nearly midnight and I just can't get that shit out my head so I can sleep.
Too much passive passing and no killer instinct pretty much story if the season, fingers crossed we actually get at them with some determination Tuesday but I can just see more if the same of tonight to be honest.
I hope they do try and sit on their lead. First goal on Tuesday likely to be key imo. Unless Simms was carrying a knock, I was a bit surprised he didn't come on for BTA. Still in it, and far from Bristol City's situation.I think FL picked the team based on how we ended the Boro match. But one thing he has not been able to figure out all season long is how to unlock teams playing the low block. That is his and the team's downfall. No incisive passing at all. Too many sideways and backward passing. Also I think the team was complacent and expected to win just by showing up. Wright hardly resembled the hattrick hero and BTA was piss-poor. They played their game plan well and counter attacked effectively and got their rewards. They'll be hard to break at their home and will resort to a similar tactic in the second leg. Now that we are going to be chasing them for the equalising goal, it'll be easier for them to counter attack and their crowd will spur them on.

I can absolutely assure you that Sunderland AFC will not be over confident next Tuesday.
Do you think we know nothing about football?
Sunderland went to your place with a game plan and they played it almost to perfection. the main question was - could we/Sunderland raise our game after 5 straight defeats - the answer was clearly yes.
I was slightly bemused by Coventry in the first half. Why when CCFC has score 19 goals from headers this season did they play these 40 yard lobbed balls over our central defenders? POMO tells everyone that once you play the ball over about 20 yards the chances of the right players getting the ball is about 5%.
Second half and Lampard corrected that and you started to get the crosses into the box - very dangerous. However when you have 10 men behind the ball it is and it doesn't matter who you are playing - very, very hard to break that defence down.
Sunderland played with 2 up front and on their day they are good pacy strikers.
Le Fee's ball for Isidor was absolutely superb. You will never see a better ball than that. 1 nil to Sunderland. whether it was deserved or not made no difference whatsoever as we did what was on the side of the tin - played on the break. Classic smash and grab.
Didnt take long for CCFC to equalise and it was a classic strike catching us just after we had scored. The header went in like a bullet and it was game on.
We were then under the cosh but defended for our lives and the second goal arrived, taken beautifully by Mayenda. The one think you can say about the lad who made the mistake is that in football he may be down tonight but as sure as eggs are eggs he will be your hero at some point in the future - because what goes around comes around.
Now for the Stadium Of Light.
I've been a football fan coming up 60 years and if I know this tie isn't over then I assume everyone else does as well. Us Sunderland fans will hope that we can pull it off and go to Wembley but that is by no means certain. CCFC score the first goal and its game on and in the preceding 60 years I've seen just about all the weird and wonderful ways there are of winning and losing football matches.
Sunderland's first win at coventry in 40 years - as one or two people guessed - it would have to happen in this type of game.
As Cruyff, the manager would tell you, possession means nothing - goals is what counts. You can talk all day long about who was the better side and who should have won - how lucky the opposition was etc. - and how they are a bunch of pricks - but at the end of the day 90 minutes football tells you who won. You either get all upset about it and make a load of excuses or you get off your arse and go and win the next game.
Coventry lost and you either take the loss with a bit of humility or twist on like a bairn - insulting the opposition and crying on. Nothing big and clever about the latter.
Both teams remain 90 minutes from Wembley.
It'll be some game next Tuesday; in front of what will now be a packed house.
