Unbeaten in 2 but an unwanted consistency in how we’re playing

2022-08-14

Andi Weimann's 4th goal in four was the only bright spot in the blistering heat of the DW Stadium as City put in an all too familiar type of display as they had to settle for a point. I find myself conflicted as before the game I would have taken a point but it was aspects of the performance that sees me take the view that we are in for a long hard season. Why do we run out of puff with annoying regularity? What of Alex Scott? Played better at RWB than he appears to be doing in his favoured...

Andi Weimann's 4th goal in four was the only bright spot in the blistering heat of the DW Stadium as City put in an all too familiar type of display as they had to settle for a point.

I find myself conflicted as before the game I would have taken a point but it was aspects of the performance that sees me take the view that we are in for a long hard season.

Why do we run out of puff with annoying regularity?

What of Alex Scott? Played better at RWB than he appears to be doing in his favoured midfield.

A fit Joe Williams but is he all that and perhaps the same applies to Kal Naismith?

JD attacking threat? don't think so.

There are some positives - Sykes looks a decent signing, Tommy Conway is doing fine and even Zak Vyner is doing OK in so far as he is no worse than those alongside him.

And what of Nigel Pearson? Easy to jump on the beating with a stick bandwagon but he doesn't help himself does he? Seems unable / unwilling to change tactics mid-game and displays an unbelievable level of loyalty to Chris Martin who was AWOL for most of the time yesterday. He took off our youngest two players yesterday but still our target man who's 34 in November does a full 90 mins and you just know he'll be selected Tuesday night vs. Luton.
