Wigan Athletic (A) - Saturday 27th June (3pm)

[G Somerset Rover]

We’ve started pretty dreadfully. Moore causing problems, Bennett awful.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Can't cope with the big lad up top.  Wish Gallagher was that effective

 

[simongarnerisgod]

severly lacking width and bennett who`s a liability at right back and a disaster of nuclear proportions at left back

[Tugay-is-God]

Weather looking pretty awful as well.

I’m tempted to buy some plastic pint pots for the match day experience. This would have been a good day out. Missing out on free pies too! I’m imagining we’ll be able to hear that horrible gargoyle Cook barking out his usual bulls whip? 

Is there anything worse (accent wise) than a Scouse accent!?

Preston losing, we really need to win this

Preston lost!

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Big Ben showing some appetite. Good pass to Nyambe who showed a good first touch

[Tugay-is-God]

Nice quick move there, just wish BB had got a shot away.

Bit of positivity my link isn’t working today so I’ve marinated the lamb for a fresh slow cooked vindaloo later! Will taste better with 3 points ? 

[Dan]

Holtby showing some nice touches. 

[Exiled_Rover]

We've started this match with 3 lads upfront who don't pose any credible goal threat. 

It really is bizarre.

Better now, but we are really missing Arma.

[Stuart]

We look far the better side at the minute, some crisp passing and moving. I’d feel a lot happier if we had an actual striker up front though.

[Tugay-is-God]

Nyambe looking good going forward down the right, as always.

? 

hope it would be a good meal for you 90mins later

[DE.]

Looking a lot better now after a shaky start. Just lacking any major goal throat which is where we miss the likes of Graham, Dack and Armstrong.

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Their target is our LB. Tosin having to go more to the left to help out Bennett it seems

[simongarnerisgod]

we`d dynamite on the right if nyambe had wide player to combine with

Yep. I simply cannot understand not playing your main goal threat in Arma. It’s baffling. I reckon I’m as much of a goal thread as Gally and I’m sat at home.

As an aside, imagine if we had a player like Robinson at LB.

We look sluggish. Rothwell flattering to deceive, as usual. Should have been Johnson.

He’s often our only outlet. Why doesn’t Tony invest in some wingers if that’s the way he wants to play?

He seems to think converted strikers can do the job instead... which has largely not been the case. Arma perhaps the only success story as far as that philosophy is concerned.

he did buy one,but apparently he`s not yet ready mentally for the immense pressure of playing 90 minutes

[Tugay's Right Foot]

There was a decent turn and run by Brereton. Won a freekick
