Barnsley thread

Actually felt we played ok today.
First 40 mins we kept them at arm's length. Maybe Maxted could have done better on both the goals. Second half both teams created chances. Rodgers displayed an improved performance today. Zanzala when came on did not impress me. Bringing on subs was a positive move to try and get back in game.

It sounded ok for the first forty minutes and then calamity set in. We do need a keeper. But most of all we need to score and win like yesterday, We are slipping very quickly now. Some of our players are being found out in this league. John has listened and realised he can't go on with the same system and only one game plan. He has used substitutes early today but alas it didn't work. We need to work differently and better with the players we have. I still think we can survive this drop in form.
 
The bottom 4 all won today. Oxford have a very winnable game v Rochdale on Tuesday.
If we don’t get a result and the Shews, Bristol and Scunny only get draws, we drop into the relegation zone. We then have have to play 5 of the top 6 in our last 10 games. Simples !
 
11 games left, that’s the same number that we’ve played since the start of the year. In those 11 games we’ve picked up 7 points from a possible 33.
I think 52 maybe 53 will be needed as I think Bowyer will spark Bradford and OXford might escape.
 
Not exactly surprised with the result today, I reckon Barnsley are the best team I've seen at the Crown this season - just disappointed with the manor of the goals :(
Hopefully we'll bring my something home from Wycombe on Tuesday & finally win at home against Rochdale next week, if we can do that things can start to look a bit more positive
 
Just got back yes agree chevyfire we did so well the first 40min shame we didn't go in nill nill at half time mad five minutes.shame we didn't put our chances away in the early stages of the 2nd half.or well move on to Tuesday night
 
Barnsley are a strong side.
I expected us to struggle to get anything so I’m not going to be worried about the result - it’s about the performance.
Initially baffled by the team selection.
If it’s right that Gibson was first choice but taken ill then maybe playing Wood had to happen.
The lad however had a bit of a nightmare.
I would have gone with Big Ben.
Up front we’ve got major problems.
Billy out of form, Armstrong not strong enough for me in hold up play, Smyth lightweight so needs to be used in a certain way and then there is the enigma that is Zanzala.
I want to see us solid on Tuesday and come back with at least a point.
The pressure is building but 9 points from Wycombe Rochdale Plymouth and Walsall and we’re over the line.
 
Agree with Armstrong he spent more time on the floor for a big lad.very poor with our free kicks and corners why alway go short when the defenders come up for them.gave the ball away with every free kick yesterday gave them chance to counter why? Need at least a point on Tuesday
 
Need something from Wycombe's place Tuesday or the pressure is really on against Rochdale Saturday pity Dimi got himself sent off against Blackpool was looking good but we need to settle down at the back and stop conceding soft goals upfront though is the real problem and has been for a while nobody looks confident in front of goal when it's needed don,t know what the best options are because apart from Simmonds who signed in the window we have played them all but a answer needs to be found otherwise we will be sucked into the bottom 4.
