I wonder which one of the three left backs will play there?
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: Janso on October 31, 2020, 02:05:46 pm
Probably the one that's actually a centre half.
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: Filo on October 31, 2020, 02:07:49 pm
So we’ll have a Centre Back playing left back, a left back playing right back and a left back playing left midfield, square pegs and round holes

Maybe Okenabirhie could do a job there...?

Clearly doesn’t rate Ed Williams at all then. Bit of a pointless signing if your left back starts in midfield over you.

Looking at how Liam Hoden has set out the team surely it can't be right? He has James in CAM Sims on the LW and Smith at CM? Surely James on the LW Sims CAM and Smith in the CM role?
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: drfchound on October 31, 2020, 03:19:09 pm
Joe Wright at RB then.
James in CDM.

How we doing?

Great chance for Sims. We are doing ok
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: drfchound on October 31, 2020, 03:28:24 pm
Started as second best for ten minutes but are growing into the game and beginning to create chances.
Looking quite decent now.

Or maybe Brad needs a break having played every game so far in a physically demanding position and there's no other right back?

I don’t think Wright looks too comfortable at RB.

Need to take our chances once again doing well but the ball just won't go in.

I meant besides Halliday. Wright isn't a right back, that's for sure.

This game is really open. Sims and smith playing well. We are matching them. Just need to take our chances. Also defending well
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS

That was close for them we need to score 1st

You don't save those at all.  Some real good midfield play this half, settled well in to it. Could easily be more than one up.

Can't believe some of those earlier chances didn't go in but what a goal!!

Post by: sha66y on October 31, 2020, 03:55:01 pm
We look like a slightly wonky wheeled bike winning a bike race....
I think Lincoln are shell shocked

However, we have created more chances and Sims should have buried that header, and Feji should have slid in at the back post to put Sims effort in....

We may clumsily bum-bash these into submission by wreckless default...
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: jmt23 on October 31, 2020, 03:57:12 pm
I agree, he looks uncomfortable, and is over thinking passes, due to not wanting to make any mistakes, rather than just playing the game. RJ is the same in midfield, I do not know what could be the reasons not to play a proper midfielder, they should add more to the game.
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS

Oh ....and another thing....

I’ve never Ever seen so many cack footed players .....laying purely with only one peg....it’s car crash entertainment
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: dknward2 on October 31, 2020, 04:00:05 pm
We need to start the 2nd half like we have done recently and get an early goal force Lincoln to really come at us and open up gaps at the back
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: RobDW on October 31, 2020, 04:00:25 pm
I'm enjoying what I've seen of the game, and it's looking positive, as long as we turn up for the second half, but the coverage is the worst I can ever remember seeing of a Rovers game. How do we complain about this? I can live with replays while the ball's out of play, but I can see no possible justification for cutting away from live action and making us miss the game, only to re-show something we've just seen.
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: drfchound on October 31, 2020, 04:02:10 pm
Sims and Smith are looking outstanding as a pair so far in this match.
Fej having to do too much by himself.
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS

Agree with the comments on the replays, not sure what is happening there? missing attacks is so frustrating!

He came out for an out swinging corner and got nowhere near it, if Lincoln had shot on target it would have been 1-1
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: phil o sophical on October 31, 2020, 04:37:54 pm
We were spoilt last season with a keeper with plenty of confidence who was comfortable catching the ball
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: DRNaith on October 31, 2020, 04:38:25 pm
I'd rather he came out and missed the odd few, rather than be rooted to the line every time though

Chances yet again missed but this time we did score and with the players DM had at his disposal we got a win. Let’s hope Gomes, Taylor Richards, JJules and Tulloch fit again so he has more players to choose from. With Ravenhill on the bench is Hasani injured aswell.
Title: Re: TLOD V IMPS
Post by: sha66y on October 31, 2020, 05:11:38 pm
I didnt think Lincoln were that good to warrant their position,
A couple of good passages of play against a patched up wonky wheel of a team shows them up for what they are....show ponies with luck....let’s hope once again we have burst their bubble and they tumble...

If we can win in this fashion we can be confident of much tighter performances when we have others back...

If this was an experiment mr Moore.......it worked just fine
