Change this super cautious, over anxious , possession football that produces a dismal defeat or the happy with a point excuse.
How do certain players who are struggling to impress still get game time despite doing very little to influence the result.
Feel sorry for Conor Townsend who is currently out injur
ed but got minimal game time when he was available to play.
I feel Cameron Humphreys could also feel he is unlucky not to feature too.
I also suggest Leif Davis could play left midfield to give us more attacking presence.
The Hull City game was difficult to watch in big parts of the game and it was repeated v Oxford.
Oxford were there for the taking i felt. And again, the big substitution switch did not pay off. Yet, despite possession we could not turn that into goals.
After watching the game there was the usual radio post match analysis to over assess what was a game we should of won .
Giving away a sloppy goal to begin with was not necessary and the Oxford 2nd goal was from a punt up field.
When we can get the ball forward and into the box quicker with quality crosses then we may win more games convincingly. [Post edited 29 Nov 0:33]

In terms of their second goal, I’ve seen Jack Taylor do that lofty diagonal ball to no one so many times when we need a goal towards the end of games. Whether it’s Old Trafford or Oxford, same thing. |  |

Agree on that one. Matusiwa was obviously at fault for their first, but Taylor was less obviously but as much at fault for their second. It was a lazy and unnecessary pass. |  |

We have been conceding that second goal so many times this season. Long diagonal ball over the top kills us often. Also I think workmanlike teams like playing us as they know what they need to do. Keep it tight and punt it forward. |  | | |

The header down from that diagonal ball fell to one of their players, in yards of space. Where were our midfield following up? The ball did what it was intended to do, but the gap between the strikers and back up was vast. 5 seconds later its 2-1. | | | |

I agree with Davis playing left midfield and to get the crosses in. So players will know to get in and around the box.
Also agree that Cameron Humphreys can hold his own at left back.
The front two could include Philogene or Jack Clarke because we need ball players and pace up front. Too many times there is no one to meet the cross. It would be more exciting to see a player carry the ball and play the old 1-2.
The last two games, despite the win @ Hull, the performance is short of convincing. |  |

“Super cautious” .Do you mean that we should try for the killer ball constantly even if it means almost certainly giving up possession. | | | |

The issue is we don't have an issue with left midfielders. On their day Philogene and Clarke are more than good enough. Neither have built a good rapport with Davis, and that is part of the problem both defensively and as an attacking unit. | |

I actually disagree with 'super cautious' football point here.
We are creating more than enough chances, we are just missing them at a historic rate.
Once we start taking them, I think people will alter that line of thinking but until that point, it will look that way.
3 goals in 3 games certainly feels cautious but it does not really tell the story. | | | |

Humphreys is alright if you have all the ball but far from ideal as your back up left back
I'd rather we were using Greaves in that role who looks better there than centre back imho |  |
