Thoughts on last night 13:40 - Nov 29 with 1661 viewsnodge_blue

Cole Skuse was excellent last night. He was finding space, pinging passes. Lambert seems to be getting the absolute max out of him.

Challobah and Downes both need to step up. England U20 players. They need to affect the game much more.

Sears can play wide left after all!

Both fullbacks, but Spence particularly not great. Need much more going forward.

We cant rely on aging Chambers and Skuse. Lack of senior experienced pros in mid to late 20s is telling.

Still "enjoyed" it more than what we saw under Mick. I think Lambert is the right man for the club. The trouble may be that another half a season of taking defeats is going to do alot of harm for next season. A season that will surely be in Div 1. We need very shortly to be planning for that to get a head start. That may mean blooding the youngsters more to get them game time in preparation.

Poll: best attacking central midfielder?

Cole Skuse was superb last night. I really don't rate Challobah (Sorry everyone!)

Agree on full backs.

Last night was just a mad 10 minuets. The rest of the performance was encouraging.

I do think we are now going down, based on that 10 minuet madness. We can't afford this.

PL is most definitely the right man for this job.

Yon know the term 'gets worse before it gets better' I think we are living it right now. All will be fine long term IMO.

Spence to me is footballs version of cowboy builders!

I may be in the minority who actually though Knudsen was 'OK' last night, but that may be in comparison to Spence.

My opinion although I think Spence is poor, and also with the benefit of hindsight, our fullbacks don't get enough protection from the wingers, (if that is what they are - not sure if they are wingers or part of a front 3...) especially once we regained the lead last night.

At least Knudsen didnt pass the ball to the opposition striker who was on the edge of our box at the time.

Skuse wasn’t ‘excellent’ or ‘ superb’ last night and anyone convinced by this need to go away and look up the definition of those words. He showed for the ball a bit more than usual first half and unusually for him, made a few forward runs and linked the midfield and attack a couple of times. Also, played a few good cross field passes. However this was nowhere nearly enough over the course of the whole game , and he faded badly once the third goal went in and looked as lost as anyone else when we were trying to get the game back. As you rightly say a 33 year old Skuse doing this a couple of times in the first half is not going to be enough to keep us in the championship.

Skuse had a decent game, but no more than that really. He made a couple of decent passes but is still unable to make quick first time passes and usually picked the easy option for a pass. Not convinced by his movement off the ball either.
Downes I think has played quite well recently and was very impressed against West From, Chalobah has shown flashes of brilliance but inexperience of the roll and of professional football in general shows.
Sears works well on the wing when Mccarthy's not ordering players to lump it over his head.
Both full backs are absolutely pony.
Don't think we really 'rely' on Skuse and Chambers any more than any other players.
Do agree with the last paragraph though.

Good observation. Time for a few changes I think, but think Lambert knows that already. Feel so sorry for Paul Lambert, a great manager, perfect fit for us, and I’m praying that he stays even if we go down. Combination of PH and ME have sunk this club this year, but it has been coming!

Team for sat
Bart
Donacien - Chambo - Pennington - Knudsen (reluctantly)
Nolan - Skuse - Bishop
Lankester - Roberts - Sears

He won't drop Bart after 1 honest mistake, he tried to stop the ball from going in from a very close distance and it deflected it goal bound. Obviously it is easy to say he should have left it but Bart wouldn't know that. Honest mistake, happens in football, move on.
