Quote from: andyh on March 06, 2021, 07:54:12 PMA draw was a fair result I think.Excellent first half, but a poor second with our midfield disappearing with the Sanson injury.If there is money available in the summer, we need to be spending big on a striker. No pissing about. That’s no reflection on Watkins who was superb in the first half, and worked his bollocks off is the second, but the kid needs help. Davis is not that help and who knows if Wes will ever play again. Smith should be developing Archer instead of sticking with Davis who has failed to produce time after time after time.

Quote from: exigo on March 06, 2021, 07:46:39 PM40 points in March. Progress.It is but feels like a letdown with the performances since Burnley first half. We look knackered, short of ideas or any sort of flair
40 points in March. Progress.
Well 40 points in Premier League. Last time we reached this milestone was under Houlier/McAlistair.
It's infuriating that we can't keep going. We played some sharp stuff that kept them pinned in their own half and could've scored three times in the opening 20 minutes, but then we seemed to get scared. We get a bit of a 'safety first' mindset, that perversely ends up putting us under more pressure. We play nothing passes across midfield in the vain hope the opposition will stream out in search of the ball. The fullbacks retreat. The midfield retreats. Our counters involve just two players. We don't press as one. In late autumn of last season, I thought a psychologist would be a good addition to our coaching staff. I think that again.
Pitiful second half where we rarely even troubled the half way line. Night and day between that and first half. A bit like Neto and Traore for them. One was excellent, the other was dismal.
Worth a mention for their centre forward Wow. Just wow. There isn't anybody on this messageboars who would find it possible possible contribute less.

I personally don’t think Dean’s handled him correctly.
