Fadz (one pass aside) and O'Hare doing what they can.

Everyone else looks like they've barely sniffed a ball in pre-season

Moore, McFadzean, Dabo and O'Hare are the only ones coming out of that first half with any credit. Passing looked very nervy.

 

[covboy9]

Dabo playing centre half is crazy

 

[NorthernWisdom]

What is disappointing is we're still doing what we did last season, pass the ball slowly at the back, then a misplaced pass to the opposition. Got to cut that out.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Apart from one clanger Fadz has been holding the team together

Fadz unfortunately missing for the goal but that’s what happen when you rely on someone his age. We needed reinforcements two months ago.

 

[The Philosopher]

Moore gives me the shakes.
DaCosta just bonkers.
Sheaf doing his usual “kick the ball in a random direction - if it finds a teammate it’s a great pass, normally it doesn’t and he looks shocked and points in a similarity random direction” thing.

Other than that, brilliant. Kinda.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

We miss Kelly or a player like James. Maybe swap Rose for DaCosta and bring Jones for Sheaf (to avoid a red card) and go more offensive-minded.

 

[mark82]

Their defender will 100% get a retrospective ban for that.

 

[Skybluedownunder]

Difference is in Brennan Johnson they have a player with genuine quality. He won't be there long.

Johnson playing very well

In my opinion he is... others are off it, Sheaf isn\t even off it, he just really isn't very good.

He’s not even our worst midfielder

 

[SBT]

Neither Hamer nor Gyokeres look like £1 million players.

Still no pace or aerial threat across the entire team. Any side with pace is going to eat our back line alive.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

I hope I’m proved wrong but really concerned about our lack of cover at Left wing back.

That Chelsea kid looks like a deer caught in headlights. Woefully out of position defensively, will never win a header and seems to be operating as a winger not a wing back!

Who the fuck will play there if he’s injured or like today he’s playing crap!

Wish we signed Papa Souare

You just look at the bench and it gets even more depressing.

I think we can rule out CDM with this appearance haha

This is a joke right?

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Ben Sheaf nowhere near good enough, clearly we were obligated to buy him and we need to try get him into the team but... wow, worst player we have had at this level. What does he offer? slow.. only goes sideways, gives it away as much as he keeps it, can't tackle..

We are 3-4 players short and we will have a terrible season unless we improve the quality.

When he did those skill moves on the edge of the box I realised that if he keeps that sort of thing up he’ll start to cost us goals again

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Can we go a gameweek without slagging off our own players lets slag off their number 17

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Still need 4 minimum for this squad to be competitive. Bar rose this is our best possible team and it doesn’t look good enough.

Kelly
Godden
Rose
2 loans of top quality??

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Yes

 

[Tea & Busquets]

need to get sheaf off, fucking preseason pirlo now when it actually matters plays like an arsenal flop

 

[covboy9]

When you’ve got a Target man you can’t fuck about at the back

 

[The Philosopher]

He really isn’t the worst player - there’s been worse than him today

That isn’t really high praise at all.

 

[mark82]

& Waghorn. And Dabo only because he's playing out of position. If our actual CB's had made the mistakes he had they'd be slaughtered.

 

[NorthernWisdom]

Moore is defo an upgrade on Wilson though so there is that.

tbf, I'd have been enthusiastic had they announced my cat as the new keeper, over Wilson.

 

[kg82]

Dabo playing centre half is crazy

Yeah, I’d agree. Surely Rose on for 2nd half and Dabo out to the right. He’s got to have 45 mins in him.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Basically this is where Robins earns his money … good tactical talk required … if they score another we are screwed but as it stands 1 nil we can cope with

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Kelly
Godden
Rose

What is Godden doing in this team. He will be like the front 2 now and just be running about like a headless chicken

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

& Waghorn. And Dabo only because he's playing out of position. If our actual CB's had made the mistakes he had they'd be slaughtered.

I think Dabo is wasted at Cb

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Poor in possession and daft at the back, old habits die hard.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Decosta is a clown

You're just missing Max

 

[CCFCBat]

Moore gives me the shakes.
DaCosta just bonkers.
Sheaf doing his usual “kick the ball in a random direction - if it finds a teammate it’s a great pass, normally it doesn’t and he looks shocked and points in a similarity random direction” thing.

What has Moore done wrong. He’s caught everything and used his box to tidy up through balls and he couldnt do anything for the goal

He kicked a bobble in the ground trying to clear it

Pre-match drinking at this level is unacceptable in my opinion

 

[covboy9]

We will improve keep the faith

 

[shmmeee]

Moore’s playing pretty well, decent distribution after his first kick. Rest look well off the pace. No attacking intent at all, Maatsen getting the ball out wide and no one looking to get up an support.
