Got the width right,correct decision to bring on gboly,but it should have been at half time for the woeful Talbot.Same with gardner who provided width,but not to provide penetration through the centre and leave on herd against nine men was shocking,it meant we had 2 huffer and puffers in the middle and with the totally uncreative herd ( bottom half league 2 player).We simply had to leave oshea on ,put him in the middle and let him provide penetration...width ,depth and penetration mr Wilson...week one day one.

That's providing that Oshea let go of the ball early enough.
Oshea on his day is unplayable, it's just too bad that his day is only about three times each season.

I agree but against 9 men you want oshea to provide not blinkin herd who tried to shoot from 30 yards whilst Peterborough were compact infront of goal.

Yeah, can't argue with that. Herd doesn't have a creative bone in his body. Poor decision.

and how bad was Talbot? He is looking terrible right now. Misplaced passes all over the shop, poor weight of pass and no positional sense.

Agree. It was a weird set up. What position was Drew actually playing? He had less idea than me where he should be.

Bringing off O'Shea against 9 men was silly.

Now I like Danny as much as the next spireite but today he has to shoulder a big portion of the blame for that!

I agree with what you have put and the decision that peed me off the most was taking oshea off....not because oshea was having a blinder (he wasn't) but because it should have been a defender ffs!

We were playing against 9 men and losing 1-0 at home but at one point when we were attacking we still had 4 defenders stood marking the invisible man on the half way line....a schoolboy could have employed more positive tactics!

I try to be positive but today has finally made me accept that we have replaced Morsy with an average players and in selling the family sliver Allen & Turner have all but condemned us to relegation!

I am very very very depressed tonight....

I am seriously disappointed that DW kept Herd on in January let alone today

Second that ,and bringing on headless chicken gardner poor decision

[Martyg]

What I can work out is o'neil signed as a cm, Talbot a rb. So why on earth wasn't Talbot at rb?
Would like to see Simons get a run of games from the start & ariyibi is a must for starting

Was DT signed as a RB? Is that his preferred position?

[SpireiteFitzy]

Pretty sure Drew was signed as a striker back in the day lol.

True but in recent years he has been used as a rb, all I'm saying is he is more familiar to rb than cm

Totally agree as I did when we discussed this during play. The problem with O'Shea is that, despite his undoubted talents, he has the dreadful habit of being a disappearer. I can only presume that DW didn't think that he was likely to re-appear today.

we were equally surprised that he took him off, ok he wasn't having one of his better games but against 9... had to be left on, not surprisingly at that stage of the game we were getting on top and playing in their half, all the lose balls however seemed to be falling to Sam Hird who is not the most dangerous player around the oppositions box, o'shea on the other hand might just have unlocked a door.

Talbot was poor today. Still a quality full back when fit

Well he started off sort of on the right in front of O'Neil, then he sort of shifted to the left and in then sort of moved to a sort of a more central location.

As for subbing O'Shea who would you have brought off, I know my choice
