Barnsley Away (checkatrade )

Is it just me or do we look to be creating more chances at least?

Barnsley reserves and a non league side but we look to be moving the ball a lot better in the final third? That’s just from highlights so may be wrong but.....

If only we could defend

Think we have created a few chances in most of the last few games. Just seems that our front men and mfs haven't been told why the frame has a net around it. We need Rowan Atkinson.

For me there are many, many points to be coached on that clip.....

Devine was in no man's land with his player. He's further advanced than Wright in the opposition half but not actually close enough to affect anything. He either needs to be closer to him so he can bring him down if necessary after the flick or he needs to have dropped off deeper into a more reserved right back role. By being so advanced he has left the space behind him exposed.

This allowed Barnsley players to move (including the runner) into that space behind. There were 3 players in that space he left. This has caused O'Connor to come across into the right back area vacated by Devine. O'Connor didn't know whether to stick or twist with one man or the other as the pressure from the midfield was lacking. He got turned around between the players and in the end didn't affect the play in anyway. Again maybe he could have stood his ground outside the area to try and force a decision from the Barnsley player and made a foul to stop the play.

As a result of the space in the right back area and O'Connor moving across, the gap between the 2 centre halves was huge, which Moncur exposed. Again NKP should have covered that area where the immediate danger was but instead again he backed off to try and cover the other Barnsley player in the box (who wasn't actually posing any danger). He should have moved across to stop Moncur.

Chicksen should have told NKP to move across and cover Moncur and Chicksen moved across to cover NKP's man to try and force them along the line towards the left back position and wide of the area.

Wright never influenced that defensively at all. He was just running along side. Unusually he never pointed at a player, it would have been more beneficial if he had done and told O'Connor to stay with the wide man whilst he got back into the centre to cover Moncur. But I didn't see any 'busting of guts' to get back to assist the defence at all.

No other midfielders in the clip right until the last second when LO'B enters the frame at the edge of the area.

So people can see what they want to see about individuals based upon their own individual views but would like to think this is an objective assessment of that clip.

Most commonly for me this season, is that our defenders don't 'engage' players in the correct areas and we back off and allow them to run and turn us and get in dangerous areas without getting tackles in.
