Re: Orient v Salford match thread
We’re playing better this week than last Saturday but apart from one skewed shot I can’t remember any other goal opportunities. Salford don’t look anything special but you still can’t shake that feeling they only need one goal .

We’ve had a midfield four for the majority of the last 2 games prior to this.

Re: Orient v Salford match thread
Looking forward to a forward pass in the second half from our leading marksman for this year.

Re: Orient v Salford match thread
We're playing with actual wingers now I guess is the difference, Young was playing on the left in theory only. Coleman looks handy as well, bit more presence in the middle. But it's still pretty bad tbh.

Re: Orient v Salford match thread
Ok first half.
The 4-1-3-2 is working for Coleman and Pratley but doesn’t suit Archibald and Khan, nor the cart horse pairing up top. Keep the same personnel but change it to a 4-1-2-3, Archibald out wide left up top, Drinnan on the other side, Nouble down the middle on his tod, Khan and Pratley central behind them.

Re: Orient v Salford match thread
Yeah, I get your point, especially about Coleman, he’s been our best player.Mistadobalina wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 3:55 pm We're playing with actual wingers now I guess is the difference, Young was playing on the left in theory only.

Re: Orient v Salford match thread
Also worth noting the ref has been very lenient. Nouble should definitely have been booked, Thompson as welll, and Ogie could easily have had a pen awarded against him.

Re: Orient v Salford match thread
Pratley absolutely f*cked it there.
We aren't scoring with those two up front.

Re: Orient v Salford match thread
We have forgot how to play a football match.
We think we just need to turn up play for 90 minutes and try not to concede, instead of actually creating chances, attacking and scoring bloody goals!!!!!!

Re: Orient v Salford match thread
Vigoroux saves again but goal from the resulting corner 0-2
Bang goes my prediction, we're in big trouble now
