Gelson v Aldershot anyone?

According to Richard Lee Tarky had been stroking them home in training no,problem!

Plan B awaits methinks

I thought that Tarky was already about Plan H! If we can't find either a forward or midfielder who can do the job, then that's somewhat worrying IMO.

Perhaps next time if a defender is elected as the penalty-taker, then I'd suggest TC, who, I seem to recall, has scored at least 2 very good penalties in penalty shoot-outs.

Macca has scored a penalty before in the FA Cup for Brentford. TC has scored both of his penalties in penalty shoot outs v Swindon and Dagenham - both great strikes too. When has Tarky taken a penalty in a match situation? ;)
 

James Tarkowski -

shirts vs skins on Thursday, he scored a hat-trick :homer:

it was obviously a position vacant. sadly still is :sad:
 

James Tarkowski -

Still not happy about it, if I am paying my striker £5k a week I want him to be taking penalties, come on Andre. I don't care about a playground style event during the weeks training, madness !

Warbs said he never misses in training and is still out nominated penalty taker.

Yes, just listened to the interview on BP. Still an odd choice for me...

I believe Gray scored 11 penalties for Luton last season, he should surely be the designated taker.:confused:
 

James Tarkowski -

Shocking decision by the management to put him on pens ..

Even though it didn't cost us I'm still pissed off about it.

I'm sick of our pen dramas .. Let's just get a taker & stick with him.

Def the weirdest decision Warbs has made.

Somewhat OTT I think. Why not JT, he is likely to be playing in most games, and it matters not a jot that he is a defender when it comes to taking penalties? If he has shown up as the best in training, then why not give him a go in the real thing? I am just a bit surprised, though, that one of the forwards, Gray particularly, has not pushed himself forward to take them with the chance to boost their goal stats.
 

James Tarkowski -

I wasn't at the game tonight, and am a fan of Tarkowski, but he's cost us at least two goals in the last few games as well as missing that pen. Time to bring in Dean, and drop him to the bench? Or is he untouchable? Craig is a better player and got dropped for getting sent off.

he is now on his 4th booking, so one more and he'll get a ban..

He was banned for getting sent off and Tarks didn't foul the cheating f*****.

Too good a ball player to drop for Dean I'm afraid.

Well, because he gave away a pen, and he's made errors in other games.

Only raising a point that maybe he could be considered for a spell on the bench. Isn't that the whole point of having competition within the squad?

to be fair he has made quite a few more than I expected this season.. tougher league I guess, the goals kill us off..
 

James Tarkowski -

He'll keep the CB spot until his fifth booking, which may not be too far off at this rate. :shrug:

He's still learning. He's better with TC alongside.

Dean will get another chance. Let's hope HD takes the opportunity to show us how good he actually is and if he's dropped again, or we let in more goals than we should be letting, that he is a little more diplomatic in his interview. :D

He was on the bench for something like three games, whilst we conceded a shed load of goals.

Half a mo, we won the next two games after TC was sent off for a clumsy foul that cost us at least two points.
After TC was sent off vs Birmingham Harlee came in and we won with a clean sheet away at Rotherham and then beat Brighton.
We got punished by a clinical Norwich and maybe it was time to change it back but very harsh to lay the blame at Harlees door as Tarks error for first after which we were chasing the game.
TC is a class act reading the game well but he let us down badly vs Brim and didn't deserve to regain his place until after Norwich game in my opinion.

We did concede nine goals. Anyway, my original point was about whether anyone thinks he's a candidate for sitting out a few bearing in mind he's made some errors. I'm getting the sense not.

He's the best centre back I've seen this season despite a costly mistake against Norwich. I reckon he'd walk into any team in this league so no I wouldn't dream of dropping him.
He will get banned very soon so Harlee and TC will get the chance to stake their claim.

.................................what, you mean like a certain Marcello Trotta did some time ago?..........................................;)
 

James Tarkowski -

How many games does he miss when he gets his 5th booking?
 

James Tarkowski -

I think that JT has the potential to become a very good centre back but he sometimes takes unnecessary risks and often seems to lose concentration during games and this has cost us. These faults need to be coached out of his game as he looks like an accident waiting to happen too often.
 

James Tarkowski -

Didnt think it was a Pen at the game, but watching highlights, he did clatter into the Watford player. Unnecessary, as he was actually heading away from goal. A hard call, but I've seen worse pens given.
 

James Tarkowski -

I wouldn't really say he was heading away from goal -- it was a very clear chance that required a challenge. We were caught for pace on a counter attack when we probably should have won the ball further up the field; it was a rather clumsy challenge, but many refs wouldn't have given that penalty -- a 50/50 call.
 

James Tarkowski -

Every central defender makes mistakes including our three. What you have got to look at is what they contribute over the full game. Man Us defence against Mk was shambolic and was far worse than our defence in any game we have played so far and that was against a league one team. It would be interesting to see if there was a vote on which two should start for us.

At the moment I'd vote for Tarks and TC, thought both have looked very sound last two games since reunited.

ultimately, I feel, despite his fantastic spirit, Dean isn't going to be good enough at this level

And in their best position too
 

James Tarkowski -

I think our defence at times comes under a lot of strain because we don't have a natural holding midfield player to shield defence. Douglas plays that role mostly but as seen recently he is best when roving more and being mobile more than just protecting back four and then starting play for us. Certainly Toumani gave us more bite in midfield against Watford as Did Mac against Norwich. Ultimately hope Tebar proves to be that guy as he has the eye for a pass and we need someone with range of passing and ability to feed Jota, judge , Pritchard and Gray.
 

James Tarkowski -

Looked in good nick in the executive lounge at Boundary Park today.

Exciting times with Andy Ritchie and Mark Crossley also present.

He hasn't understood this international break lark has he, most have gone to Dubai, he has gone to Oldham !?

10 unbeaten including 4 draws and a JPT penalties win.

I wouldn't rule it out. It's years since I've seen Latics go a goal down and not been bothered because I've been sure they'd go on to win.

Ask me again after the January transfer window. If we've still got James Wilson, George Elokobi and Carl Winchester I'll start believing!

An excellent run of form, and you've played a few good sides as well. Enjoy the ride!
