Barnsley goals 09:11 - Aug 28 with 1041 viewsWickets

2 poor goals to concede especially so soon after we had scored. Both looked free headers so a bit of a worry. Add to that neither of our centre backs seem to be able to contribute much of an attacking threat at corners .

That's generally true, but yesterday Edmundson did have two decent headers, one of which hit the post, so maybe this is an area we are working on.

The free headers were shocking, do we play zonal marking or man for man? If it's man for man then this is basic stuff they're getting horribly wrong...

Zonal. Problem was the ball literally fell in the worse place it could have done. Its one of those that 9 times out of 10 in league 1, Those balls don't find those areas. That's how I saw it anyway.

Thought their first was offside, as did Wolfie. Have the rules changed with regard to players in offside positions in front of the keeper, effectively interfering with play? Or did the linesman/assistant referee simply not spot what was admittedly a tight decision?

First goal burns or donacian should of challenged.

Second goal Jackson leaves his man for a free header.

It is a mixture of zonal and man to man, considering prior to this game Town conceded only 2 goals, 1 at home and 1 away and scoring 10 goals, I don't feel it is something we need to worry about too much. I also feel we should credit Barnsley for closing down the space and doing a great job protecting their keeper, who did not have a great deal to do in the second half. They managed to keep play in the middle of the pitch and stopped us playing in their half, we did not threaten their goal enough in the second half and they comfortably dealt with attack. It is a long season and should not get too upset with 2nd place after 6 games.

I can live with their first to some degree because he just found that yard and it wasn't from a set piece.....but the second I would be going crazy about if I was KM, pause the corner as the ball comes half way over, who the hell has hold of this guy? Nobody within five yards of him, totally free header...it;s basic training ground stuff, you hold your man..

If it's zonal frimmers then ffs it needs looking at, simple..

Don't think that's correct re the second. Jackson follows his man, and as McKenna says, the ball actually falls deep to the blocker who isn't even facing the goal when it's delivered. He's backing in to prevent Jackson following his attacker & actually looks surprised to turn and see the ball swinging into him in space.

Sounds like it's a bit of a chink in how we set up, from what McKenna was saying. Up to him to go and solve it.

The player who scored second goal never moved. Jackson started next to him but left him and must of mis judged flight of the ball as he had a free header on penalty spot. And was 3ft tall.

I thought Jackson lost Styles at first. But he tracks his man as do our other players and it was the completely stationary Styles who was then the free man.

One of the best-worked corners I’ve seen even before the stunning finish. Although probably a lucky one if the real intention all along was for Styles just to block defenders and help another Barnsley player lose their marker.

It'll be discussed no doubt. But we've not conceded many from crosses for the zonal marking to be seen as a constant failure. Not quite sure what happened with that one tho.

We shadowed the runners so not zonal.

Whoever is stood on edge of box should of switched on and dropped in 5 yards.

Jackson is tracking a different player.

Not saying a goal from a free header isn't a bad goal to concede, but laying it at KJ's door is unfair. He's done what was asked of him in that situation.

The first was a shocker. A real mess up.

The second, as has been pointed out in another thread, less so. It was one heck of a header from there.

The first is a good header as well, to be fair.
