Just an idea, but marking their no.5 at corners might be advisable.

Wonder if we might see a few Italians coming in January to further perfect this Catenaccio-type system we seem to be employing atm Lets welcome our new signing to Huddersfield - Jordano Rhodeso

I suppose as we are lining up in a 5-4-1 formation we are going to try and keep the score as is, until half time at least.

In our last five games we have had the following amounts of possession:
24%, 22%, 24%, 29%, 26%
So far today we have had 17%.
We are making shithousing an art form, but recently we have been getting results, so I can't see the tactics changing.
Shows how poor we are in possession, but also shows how organised we are without the ball.
It also shows how poor many of the teams are in our division at breaking down a low block.

How many teams have won a game with zero shots on target?
Can't be that many! Edit - we just had a shot on target.

Good save from Maxwell, he’s looked a very safe pair of hands

On a positive note, if we should play Barcelona we'll know what to do.

Glorious chance there for Ward. Should have put that away, it's one of them you hope that falls to Pearson or Helik.

Good save from Maxwell, he’s looked a very safe pair of hands As it stands, he keeps the jersey even if Nicholls is fit. He's been solid, and you could argue the defense dare I say it have been much better with him in goal, albeit we have of late been playing with 7 or 8 defenders

If we weren't 1-0 up I'd be fuming at that! Defensively solid though. Maxwell looks great and we generally seem to have answers to whatever they chuck at us. Never seen a team hold out like this for 90 minutes though

Never seen a team hold out like this for 90 minutes though Swansea much more eager to cross than Sunderland. If anything that may be our undoing.

I mean, there isnt going to be many people rushing to watch us play this brand of football, but we are winning 1-0 and that Ward chance was the best chance of the game, so should have been 2. Its one of those that if you are 2-0 down playing like that, then everyone is spitting feathers, but with everything going on this season, and where we find ourselves, its points over entertainment. I would take a repeat in the second half, even if it means falling asleep.

Up to the dizzy heights of 19th in the table as it stands.
More importantly, 6 points above QPR in 22nd.

anyone have a link other than the previous posted as it doesnt work for me!
Just got home after a 12 hour shift and would love to watch us bring home another 3 points at a place which is usually a graveyard for us!

However, neither is watching a team endlessly faffing around with the ball at a snail's pace and creating diddly squat at the end of it.

Watching the snow melt has more entertainment than this… just saying. Welsh lass at the game for Soccer Saturday said she's seen more enthralling games of Rock, Paper, Scissors 😁

Not pretty last few games, but really pleasing to see we're back to where we were before the coaching changes. I'll hold me hand up and apologise to DM for being a bit harsh on here after the horrible performances with a threadbare team.
Let's hope we can see this out and kick on again.
