… from Preston
Soft penalty. Very soft. I know people saying it’s a pen. But the striker got the ref.
After that Preston just went very deep; blocked every channel. And we aren’t fully firing at the moment to break it down.
People will blame Clarke and Greaves. The latter had a great game.
Chaplin and McAteer were poor when the came on, the bed wetters won’t mention that.
Lads just need a win and a bit of confidence.
Let’s hope the poison doesn’t affect them.
0-0 perhaps the right scoreline. We don’t ever win at Preston, not many teams will.
Azor was good today. Cajuste, Akpom and Young improved us. |  |

I agree with this. We lacked a cutting edfe but we"re not far off. |  | | |

We got the attacking set-up a bit off
Hirst was isolated and then his head dropped
Szmodics was better when linking
Akpom and Cajuste gave us some energy | |

I never thought that Deepdale was the place to get our season started. The lack of shots on target is a major concern but at least we are making chances.
I still think the season will properly start in September but its clearly concerning at this stage.
Saying that, I swear there are certain people on here that are absolutely getting off on this. Its utterly bizarre. |  | | |

£35m of wingers looking medicore against Preston.
Make all the excuses you want but it's not good enough and needs to change. If you're being cynical, you'd think we've wasted a tonne of money on a load of desperately average players. |  |

as others have said in another thread, it was obviously a penalty.
In what world can you challenge for the ball through the back of the attacker?
Think you've been generous not to mention Leif - he was absolutely woeful, same as at Brum.
I actually thought Clarke did fine and we arguably looked less likely to score once he and Philogene went off. |  | | |

Sorry. It's a clear penalty, Greaves clearly shoved the bloke, he might be great thebrest of the game and he was, but he has a moment of extreme stupidty a game, and it's costing us massively. | | | |

Why was Akpom playing so deep when he came on...we're losing, and hes a striker...what was McKenna's instructions to him? |  |

Hard to judge until new relationships are formed and patterns of play are established.
I thought for example there was sod all understanding between Leif and Jaden but we know both are top championship players.
Main issue for me is, there has just been far too much churn of players this summer and it's showing. We look totally disjointed and could have played until Tuesday without looking like scoring.
As you say, needs to change and hopefully will but will need time given the amount of new faces. | | | |

Really?
We've played 3 league games & have managed a grand total of 4 shots on target. That is bl00dy awful - we aren't going to win games of football like that. |  |

1) I disagree that the priority after an abject performance like that is to insult other fans.
2) Those of us who are complaining are perfectly happy to admit that McAteer was poor. I can't see why you would think otherwise. I can't get excited about Chaplin's performance either way.
3) Don't agree that Akpom improved us. If he did, it was only because Clarke had looked and played like a literal goat rather than a figurative one. |  | | |

The main problem seems to be that our players haven't got the idea that when shooting you have to get the ball between the posts and under the crossbar. | | | |
