Food

Great so we have a Pan, Gas and a Burns but no Cook any more - how will it all fit together.

Any more food related players we are missing to make a full squads worth?

Look at the ref giving the red card
at 21:54 16 Feb 2021

look at his face and the glee in sending off downes. His last game reffing that’s certain. Cant understand why Judge wasn’t sent off when he must have said something ?

Putting it out there

As long as the players push forwards quickly and back each other up providing an outlet, I actually like the look of this team selection.

Things I noticed against Swindon
at 13:57 11 Jan 2021

Cornell is apparently in because he’s better with his feet but numerous times I have noticed how weak his kick is. Numerous times he kicked and Barely made it Over the half way line and gave the Swindon a quick chance of a break when intercepted.

We are trying to play wingers but was amazed how many times our full backs or midfielders were not trying to overlap past the defender to get a chance for a byline cross ? So static that it was unreal so Jackson or dobra were having to pass back about 15 yards.

Dozell had a poor game - giving the ball away but I’m amazed on the occasions where he had space to drive into and even have a crack from 25 yards out but decided to try and pass ? Why are we not taking many long a shots ?

Our centre backs are driving forwards which is great to see but still seem hesitant as it doesn’t seem like the midfielders know who should be covering when they do and also aren’t ready for a give and go to allow us to play through the middle of the park where big gaps were opening.

Finally Norwood looked great and I hate to say it but we look far more dangerous lumping it up to Norwood to flick on than we do playing it on the ground as we don’t have a clue what to do to score when we do. We don’t take many long shots bar judge who I thought played really well, we don’t do over laps to get to the byline to cross. When we cross we rarely have anyone in the box as our strikers are usually the ones crossing and we don’t get penalties.

My little ranty observation over - we are missing Bishop, Edwards and Vincent- young loads and I believe are the only reason I think lambert still has his job.

Man of match and own assessment
at 18:48 31 Aug 2019

My two men of the match today
vIncent-young and Downes - both so assured on the ball and intelligent movement and demanding the ball from both. I think Downes just pipped the match ball for me but Vincent- young looks a steal, skilful, attacking, but can actually defend very well and has a good presence about him.

Norwood reminds me of Jon Walters and if we ever chasing a game putting 3 up front with him wide like Walters used to play winning diagonal ball headers is going to be tough to play against as his hold up and battling abilities are second to none.

Jackson lovely goal, assist and overall play with great running off the ball.

Chambers and wolfy both assured, kenlock had a bit of grief but overall ok, if we can get him up to speed and matured a bit more then he does have a nice pass on him.

Skuse was skuse, just everywhere, Rowe great tracking back and a few nice runs.

Judge I still don’t like out wide but had more influence and does vocalise and help others around him so it is lovely to have him around and sooner or later one of his long rangers will go in.

Holy apart from one flap when he came out when didn’t need too had a great game, great reflex saves kept the pressure off us just before half time.

I like who Lambert has brought in but not how they are being played
at 11:13 20 Jan 2019

This is my own opinion of what i see personally but i am some what dissapointed.

The physicality we needed and he addressed and the players with experience we needed has been addressed. What hasn't been addressed is the balance of the side in the middle.

In most games it has been defensive mistakes that have cost us or inability to bully and hold or move the ball up through midfield providing service to our strikers. No goals from central midfield has been a problem since Bullard or Andrews left.

Chalobah and Skuse as a pairing just are not doing it for me, Chalobah in midfield i do not understand currently as we are being swatted away by teams through the middle consistently. We have at long last got a player in Judge who is a proven number 10 who scores goals and could be put in a position we desperately need but then isn't?

Not only this but then instead he is put on the wing in a position he says he is not good at in place of some one who is a natural proven wide player like Edwards or Lankester who have both scored, the latter also looking great in the majority of games i have seen.

Its the managers keeping coming in and finding the need to accommodate players and show horn them into a position at the expense of others. It infuriates me and has been our downfall for far too long.
We need a centrally experienced attacking midfielder, we have got one, please dont put him on the wing. He has already had another team try that and have failed hence he is now here. Put him where he can help him self and help us at the same time and put a winger on the wing.
