Clueless. Catching the odd cross is great provided you can do the absolute basics.

not from what I have seen so far.
He just stood there again instead of coming for the ball and forced is to give a corner away.

Those mistakes give away goals, it then means the opposite teams will just park the bus which makes it much harder than at 0-0.

If he is there's no way we're making the top 7.

Jones stands appealing after their player has taken the ball off him and playing on.

To the whistle son.

Doyle has a shot which gets blocked, Duck wins a corner.

Another corner, they need to be a bit better as we aren't winning them.

These defensive howlers are going to cost us points, confidence and momentum. Is it a communication issue between O'Brien and his defence?

Saying that, the frail confidence syndrome should really have expired with an influx of MR's players....

Andreu crosses, I think it was Willis and maybe Hyam go up for it. They both think its going out for a corner and leave it.

Goal kick to them.

Newport were parking the bus all game, well before the goal. Its very early days in his ccfc career, he needs support,not to be dropped 4 games into the season

And we need to stop letting in pathetic goals.

You don't mind so much if they are world class goals, but not the 2 so far.

Don't want to throw the bloke under the bus after a couple of games but potentially his mistakes have cost us points in two games now. Not good enough even at L2 level.

Stokes does well to block their 24 off and get the goal kick.

I agree with this. Coventry City have lots of time to win this game.

Was another bad mistake from O'Brien, no getting away from that, but first got to ask how the ball is bouncing between our 2 centre backs from a standard long ball like that. One of the CBs has to get something on that before it bounces.

The whole team have done well. Far better then last week. Just lacking in the final third

45 minutes. I hope I am wrong but can't see it, the goal has changed the game.

again, we have huge problems this season if every time we go 0-1 down its game over.

Kidding. Lacking quality at the back and abysmal in the final third.

Like watching statues we are so lacking in movement.

We have all this firepower up front, with Doyle and Kelly just behind them but we still can't really break teams down.

Anybody else noticed a trend: RCC came to the club and initially looked promising, after some coaching he started to make mistakes and look less assured

O'Brien came in at the start of this season and looked assured, after a few weeks of coaching, errors are starting to be made

Meanwhile Burge, who has always been coached at City, has always been s**t!

Could have cost us to lose half of our games we have played.
And the way we Are shooting it looks like he might.

Absolutely right. Goals change games. If you don't score when you are on top then concede through mistakes it impacts on the players of both teams.

We awful going forward. Nowhere near top 7 standard. We'll be lucky to finish top half this season.

Maybe not but not all down to a goalkeeper though as the original poster mentioned.
