Hard pressed to think of a less imposing player than Johnson. A good finisher and little else.Got to be an eye opener, conditions are irrelevant when the gap is so big, or at least supposed to be
Timo is whatever, he isn't our player anyway, we all know he's finished.
but Johnson should really be imposing himself more at his level. Really disappointed in him.
Moore I can cut some slack being 17 year old prospect just back from injury
We should be shooting from everywhere. This keeper needs to be tested.
Not gonna be able to dribble this one into the net.
Or he's going out on loan and we don't want to cuptie him.How bad must Lankshear be if Werner is starting instead of him .
It's not even like it's been a particularly well orchestrated low block, we just can't seem to pass the ball to each other in an accurate and dangerous manner almost ever.... We act like a bunch of gormless twits!!!That half was just a reminder of how poor we are at breaking the low block and men behind the ball. Only Madders has been able to fashion a few half chances on his own.
We only have one player in attack who can shoot, that’s Maddison. Has Johnson ever attempted a shot from outside the box in his time here? I don’t think he can strike the ball like that.
This is where Maddison gets frustrated at the complete lack of anyone to play football with and also tunes out...
Non league and premier league football are a different game these days , when players aren’t so protected by the ref seems they can’t play their game , still to be fair to Moore he is just back from a really long unexplained illness and he is 17.If Moore is as good as people say he should be doing better, in spite of his tender years. Or perhaps some people need to temper their expectations?
In any event, piss poor so far. Zero intensity.
In his defence it’s his first game for 3 months and he’s having the shit kicked out of him by a 40-year old man.Im in my local pub with Micky Moore's grandad, hes not happy with his first half performance.
FixedMy word. Managed to catch the last 10 minutes of 1st half. Tottenham are atrocious.
Sadly, true. What’s his strenght? Not once he tried 1v1 with these amateur defenders.Johnson really is a bang average all round player. He could of been playing for Tamworth today and you'd say he's below that level. No in game ability apart from ghosting un at the back post when it's an open game.
WALOB.We don't have a choice about playing possession football in this one. Tamworth aren't going to dominate the ball and throw men forward
When have our players ever been protected by referees?Non league and premier league football are a different game these days , when players aren’t so protected by the ref seems they can’t play their game , still to be fair to Moore he is just back from a really long unexplained illness and he is 17.
I also think this pitch isn’t helping
Tamworth are what they are, a hard working, tough group of lads playing with drive and intensity.Non league and premier league football are a different game these days , when players aren’t so protected by the ref seems they can’t play their game , still to be fair to Moore he is just back from a really long unexplained illness and he is 17.
