I'm beating the same drum over and over but this midfield is woefully short of genuine legs. We are carrying Hourihane and Fulton looks like the games have caught up with him, we cannot compete and it was the same Wednesday.
The loss of Gibbs White despite not playing much will be a massive blow.
This result has been coming for weeks. The lack of rotation will come back to haunt us, my hope for Wednesday is the effort Coventry put in today will leave them as knackered as us. This team is out on it's feet.
Forgot about Routs. Bennett 'felt a calf'!! Looked like he just didn't fancy it today. For me Cabango has to be our first choice CB but I think Cooper will drop him every opportunity he can.
Agree about Smith
You don’t have talk some nonsense about Bennett to suit your narrative on Cabango, who was dreadful when he came on today.
Be honest with yourself. What would your reaction on here be if Bennett defended like Cabango today for their second?

Totally agree cabango too slow gets dragged out position ball watching panicks..he been put in a half decent team that can sometime hide his faults he got lot to learn..he's OK but not as good as some think

I like Cabango, I’d prefer him to Naughton to be honest but Badlands seems to think he’s prime Nesta which is fair enough, entitled to opinion, but talking down our other centre halves who have been absolutely excellent I find very odd.

More bullshit from you.
Unsubstantiated nonsense. Unless you know that he “ didn’t fancy it “.
Bennett and Guehi are at the moment our best central defenders. Naughton has done well too and Cabango shows a lot of promise but I’m unsure if he’s quick enough to react or in movement and decision making. He’s definitely powerful strong and committed but he’s not in Bennett’s league (yet).
Only an idiot would eat a turkey curry on Christmas day

And more drivel from you Nige Naughton done what? Well? If you mean giving the ball away,missing tackles,getting red card and generally looking to cause us problems then ok. Even yesterday Woody had to bail him out
There’s a valid and good reason that Manning has t played much so far and that’s Bidwells excellent form throughout the season. Today that outstanding form didn’t materialise but it was an off day for the team. Not one of them scored more than a 6 today (out of 10). Most considerably lower.
And all teams doing well will have many regulars in their starting X1. That’s quite obvious isn’t it. The players have shown a high level of consistency although we looked a bit ragged today. Even the basics of defending well, marking, staying with runners, movement off the ball. I can’t put my finger on it. Complacency may be?
I’m going with complacency and may be a genuine off day.
A great believer in taking anything you like to wherever you want to.

It’s a Sunday morning. I’m looking forward to a nice walk and have no interest in getting involved with your uninformed and unjustified constant swipes at certain individuals. Bore off.

Yes I’d agree
All of our lads had a day to forget. In a team spirt when that happens it’s curtains. Complacency could well explain it all. It can’t happen again. That fight wasnt there was it.

All the team look knackered, also bad signs against Forrest, I don’t know the answer, obviously the number of games is having an effect, I just hope the coaching team can get it sorted, hopefully all our competitors are suffering the same problems 🤞

So we are only allowed to comment if we know something to be true - or is it only if it doesn't agree with the clique? Where was Cabngo for their second? Having blocked the first pass he was closing down the player who scored while Roberts was marking thin air and Guehi had been dragged out of position because the misfield gave up the chase. Could Cabango have made a stronger block? Probably. But take a look at the first goal - The lead up has Naughton, Bennett and Guehi marking one player, the ball is played out and the three stand next to each other inside the 6 yard box with Woodman. Guehi leaves Campbell free in acres of space - Bidwell gets no where blocking the cross, Guehi is no where near his player and Bennett watches from a distance. None of the three CBs were in a position to effectively defend. It happens, as a defender you know these things happen. But what gets my goat is when one player is ripped apart for not making a double block when others are excused. Bennett is solid, he is better with Cabango, yesterday he was way off the pace in the first half and was only marginally better on Wednesday. Cabango, it seems is becoming the hate figure for some on here (taking over from Routledge). 'he panics' ... no more than most. 'he's slow' ... no he isn't. 'he dragged out of position' ... again only when covering Naughton and Guehi as does Bennett. Where was he for their second? Infogoal ratings - Cabango 6.42 / Bennett 6.28 tackle success Cabango 73% / Bennet 60% passing Cabango 74% / Bennett 76% Defensively similar stats; Bennett has marginally more blocks and interception, Cabango has marginally more clearances and successful dribbles. They go long the same per game. In attack Bennett hardly figures whereas Cabango has 3 goals and an assist. Whoscored strengths / weakness Bennett - + Strengths (Player has no significant strengths) IMO harsh - weaknesses (discipline) Cabango + Strengths TacklingStrong - Weaknesses (Player has no significant weaknesses) Ben Cabango's Style of Play Clears the ball out of defence often Clearly, Cabango is far better than the clique give him credit for.

Badlands.
You should know by now.Shove your head above the parapet,upset the posse and you get smothered in hate. I think I got away with it though
Couldn't understand him not bringing on Smith yesterday, it would have released Grimes a bit more, our midfield was like a parting of the red sea yesterday and more often than not against Forest. Guehi likes to come into midfield, but when Huddersfield broke through yesterday, we found ourselves short at the back.

Indeed Maxy now do you get why Steve drives me crazy as does the excessive love in for him. Our players went out with the wrong attitude.As soon as Hudds realised they were not being treated seriously they upped their game and their confidence visibly soured. My Huds chum has said that is the best they ve played all season and they have been dire before meeting us yesterday. Go into any game with wrong mindset and your are stuffed,as we were. That is down to manager

No ones a hate figure, apart from Bennett for you. Cabango in general is highly rated and for me he should play instead of Naughton.
But you never answered the question. What would you have said if that was Bennett for the third goal yesterday and not Ben? In fairness I haven’t seen much stick given to Cabango over it and that’s fine, everyone had a mare, but if that was Bennett you 100% would have had something to say.

Cabango isn’t a hate figure for anyone, that’s more bullshit from you.
He’s a very good young centre back who is still learning, he’s a rough diamond that is being gradually polished
His inexperience shows occasionally. It’s normal as in that position as there’s little or no room for error. It’s why reliable players like Ryan Bennett have had such good careers. Consistent without frills defending and gets the job done. Cabango has also had a very good season with scope for further improvement too. These guys have been a big part of our success.
If you could be more balanced with your lop sided views people would take you more seriously mun .

He is questioned as is Woody and therefore gets the same "treatment".

I stumbled upon this thread when looking to give Guehi a shout out as potential CDM. I know Chelsea see him as a potential in that space.,
Much like Man Utd's Axel Tuanzebe did tonight as a CB playing midfield, with devastating aplomb.
Btw. Interesting how some fickle opinions change in a heartbeat, with popular opinion, to get forum points, for the meek, isn't it.
Pro free speech and alternative opinions -
Anti gang-bullying and poor modding thereof -
Will always make a stand against those who consistently choose to turn a blind eye
IMO opinion our best midfield at the moment is Smith and Fulton holding with Grimes more advanced. Hourihane gets us goals and is excellent at set plays but generally drifts out of matches. Plus I think Grimes gets more out of Lowe and Ayew.
