Tactics

[Omegstrat6]

We do not have a great quality squad and injuries to Molumby, Collyer and Bany have limited Mason's options in midfield but the bottom line is that we all know that with the players we do have, the performances -and results-should have been better. Doubtless some of this is down to individual players but the root problem is clearly tactics and, by extension, selection.

The aim for this season was to push for a play off position and this was part of the 3 year plan outlined by Nestor and Patel. Continue as we are and we will be lucky to be mid table at best. I'm sure that both performances and results will have been noted by Patel and the pressure on Mason will be mounting from above as well as from fans. If he can show signs of turning things around then they (and we!) may be happy to accept ending up just outside the play offs but they will surely want to keep things on track with the aims of that 3 year plan and not deviate too far from it.

Agree Omeg. My son will be at Charlton tonight even though he can?t stand Mason and his tactics. Hull don?t have a better squad than us in my opinion and they are playing good football with a positive manager. It?s not losing but how you lose! Should the supporters again tonight witness zero attempts at goal?

It?s laughable

I'm working tonight so will miss the game but really hope that we begin to correct some of the things that we can all see need improving on and at least show more attacking intent, move the ball forward quicker and support in numbers. Hopefully this will make for a far more enjoyable watch for your lad and all the other fans! (Who knows, we may indeed even put the ball in the back of the net too!&#128512

My son won?t be happy being at Charlton and spending all that money if boring Mason?s tactics don?t change! Nobody will be!

Lose tonight then the majority will want Mason out!

Happy to see a change of system but Johnston out is a concern. That said, Johnston has proved excellent from the bench.

Pointless having good players on the bench if you?re chasing the game away. Grant looks like he?s eaten too many pies!

Tactics? Do we have any? Freestyle would perhaps, be an apt description!

Tactics were miles better tonight and I thought we created the best chances. We were unlucky to lose.

Im still not sure on Masons odd late subs but there was an improvement. Something to build from.

Really hard match against Oxford on Saturday so let?s not build up expectations.

I am sure those who paid a hell of a lot of money at the match tonight will leave much happier! My son texted at the end of the match saying mood not very good! Miserable lot and him too as only money and time off work 😅
