Watching stoke v w.b.a
What a difference how stoke are yaking the game to w.b.a should make mc carthy watch how its done.
Fri Oct 01, 2021 8:24 pm
Anyone watching the game?
Stoke have looked a decent side
Fri Oct 01, 2021 8:27 pm
Yes stoke showing how to play mc carthy should watch how its done and all played on the ground

Stoke are 1-0 up against West Brom with about five minutes to go, a great finish by Nick Powell.
They have dominated and deserve to be ahead. Sam Surridge had his penalty saved by Sam Johnstone earlier in the second half and a comical own goal by Darnell Furlong of West Brom in the first half was harshly disallowed.
West Brom went into this game being one of only two teams in the Championship that are still unbeaten, the other being Bournemouth.

Very good side Stoke. They will up there this season.
Its my next game and got to say unless we improved dramatically we will be in for a hard time.

Stoke beat wba 1 0...says it all..a good manager knows how to set up a team and take the game to a team who are potentially top 2 this season unlike dinosaur Mick who plays 5 centre backs and hoping to stop the other team which was an idiotic decision... tomorrow is a pivotal game in my opinion

Mick would have to turn his tactics completly upside to save his a.se tomorrow
but i am afraid its gone beyond the pale imo
Unless we played like stoke played against w.b.a tonight
But i think thats beyond micks thinking .
Fri Oct 01, 2021 9:16 pm
After what happened against West Brom, can't wait to play Stoke.
Fri Oct 01, 2021 11:09 pm
Stoke played well tonight and well worth their win .

Stoke played well .

Stoke have James Chester at the back and Joe Allen in midfield before you even go on to the rest.
We don't have anyone who comes close to the two above before you even start on the the rest.
Joe Bennett was class, let him go to play a kid, Murphy has class, let him go to play..well no one
Worst Cardiff team in years, sad but true
Morrison loves himself and thinks he bigger than the club, Flint is a warrior but old, began a kid, Nelson not good enough at the moment but potential.
Midfield, the worst iv ever known as Cardiff fan creativity at all
Moore and Collins up front
*thud*

Can't argue with any of that to be fair.
We so desperately need wingers and we've let 4 go free

COVENTRY BEAT FULHAM 4-1 AFTERBEEING HAMMERED BY LUTON IN MIDWEEK
Coventry playing it on the ground ripping fulham apart another game to record for mick mc carthy to see how to attack and play it on the ground and not give up before you play the top teams like mick did against bournmouth w.b.a.

Only started watching second half amazing stuff by Coventry in the rain,taking Fulham apart playing football on the ground.
This is how to play football quick passing going forwards, creating loads of chances.
NOT 7 DEFENDERS AND NO SHOTS.

4 1 coventry now.

Coventry 4 - 1 Fulham 75mins.... just a little bit of perspective on our game against them considering fulham light years ahead of us....

Just the same as stoke played on the ground and took the game to w.b.a.last night the way these others teams are playing with style no hoof ball makes us look like a sunday league team embarrassing.

Yes and fulham play it on ground So what's your point? we got beaten because we played hoof ball or Fulham getting hammered because they play on the ground? Seems neither works...

Yes we know fulham play it on the ground and every team has an off day even teams that play it on the ground
we seem to be having an off day every day with hoof ball football thats my point under mc carthy and the other point is that coventry have not set up to defend because rhey are playing a top 5 team unlike us.

I think the point is, you play it on the ground against teams that play it on the ground.
Hoofball rarely works against passing teams who also have height and tenacity in their game.

Monty, I'm at the CCS, so missed the game
Sounds one-sided and Coventry have one heck of a player in Gabor Gyökeres. I think he'll see them through to the Play-offs (or better)
Sat Oct 02, 2021 1:31 pm
No surprise this. Its how they played against us and just perhaps we can take a bit of credit for only keeping it at 1-0.
Sat Oct 02, 2021 1:34 pm

Enjoy if you can coventry well deserved win
Sorry head done in after tuesdays performance need to recover will return for warnocks return
Hope for 3 points today but manager really needs to go style is not going to change i fear.

Monty boy a good reply and I think we'd all like us playing this way but do you think its at all possible with our players?
I certainly don't.
I'm at the game also. Its very quiet with 20 minutes to go.
I'm not surprised by this.

No but the inference is we lost because we played hoofball against them? You can't just say fulham had off day to hide fact they lost 4-1 fact is we are playing badly but our last two games have been mainly down to micks tactics something cant argue against. ..

Hope you enjoy today
I do think that we have a team that could play it on the ground with the younger ones added to the mix we are not obviously in the top 5 teams who all play football but we just have to make the change in style this cannot go on how many teams these days play hoof ball constantly anyway don' t want to spoil your day enjoy

Our game is normally play high up field but mick seems to have lost plot and thinks 8 man defence is way to win games ..... I said at beginning of season mick is to defensive and he will cost us top 6 but looks like he could cost us a championship place unless removed soon. Football is about different styles it's how team executes theirs that determined how well team does... Coventry executed their game plan to perfection to negate Fulhams tipppy tappy style football
