Home Match Day Thread 19/10/2021 L1: OUFC v Shrewsbury Town

[m]

Worst 45 since Clotet's 'less than ideal' Wigan performance.

Utter s**t.

 

[tonyw]

Yeah, not good that.

Passing has been poor - given the ball away far too often - and we've looked devoid of ideas in the final third.
Despite that, through some good bounces, Taylor has had three decent chances and he's fluffed his lines as well.

I'd give it ten and then get Holland/Henry on for Whyte/Sykes.

But we need more from Kane & Brannagan. They're our best players, and they need to get hold of this game.

Absolutely no desire

Is this a pizza trophy game?

Three options....
1. Watch the second half.
2. Do the ironing (huge pile of!)
3. Bath & bed.

Whyte has done more in 10/15 minutes on the right than all season on the left/number 10/left wing back. Leave him there or don't play him.

 

[bert]

With the class we've got on the pitch, we should be doing much better. We need to move the ball down the wings faster and get everyone getting into the box together and with some desire. I think Sykes will be off shortly.

[emoji99][emoji99][emoji99][emoji99][emoji99] what a drab affair second to everything yet we have more possession.

We have done a fair bit of passing across the back four as usual.

Im starting to get a bit peed off with the two centre backs constantly passing out to the fullbacks when the CBs have far more space to move forward into. So predictable.

 

[Hackney Jack]

Embarrassing for KR that we haven't scored a single goal from any set piece this season. This is the one thing you can drill and drill and drill. This is bad tonight.

 

[OUFCwaffle]

I'd bring on Holland and Henry now, no creativity anywhere at the moment

 

[Mellowyellow]

Another shambles of a performance so far, 7 shots not one on target. This really is a should win game, not only considering where they are in the table, but to prove to fans that Saturdays debacle was a one off.
Taylor needs someone to work with him up front. The striker everyone else could see we needed in August, except of course robinson.

2 or 3. Every time I've stopped watching a game like this, I check the result at full time and we've improved loads and won. Night night.

I don’t understand what Williams has to do to get into the side again. He was one of our top players before his injury. Certainly provided more than Whyte and Sykes.

 

[Hackney Jack]

Insipid at best so far.

 

[unification]

More of a general view rather than one that just relates to this game.

Squad imbalance. Still not enough enforcers and too many shock-and-awe players. It’s just not KR’s way to put muscle in there and it’ll forever be his downfall.

I’ve said it so many times. Blackpool last season were player for player no better than us. For nous and strength however they were better and that’s what won through.

 

[Sarge]

COME ON YOU U'S!

 

[Malc]

Glueless

Yes, coming apart at the seams.

 

[Malc]

COME ON YOU YELLOWS

All 3

 

[Jolteon]

Tyler Goodrham just ran through the entire opposition and scored for H&Y - can we bring him back to put some much needed energy into the side?
