Fair enough about his intent, but he seems isolated most of the time.

Agreed, especially so considering his size
To be expected at 19 though

Not sure if Coventry are good or we’re making them look good

Re: COVENTRY CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Vaulks is just so slow, both mentally and physically

Well, it depends on whether or not the ball was supposed to go back to Vaulks for the cross, in order to pull the Coventry defence out a yard. I don't know, it was shit though.

Re: COVENTRY CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Get Vaulks off, one decent cross in 1.5 games. Apart from that he’s been utter dogshit.

Re: COVENTRY CITY v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Tactic seems to be we can’t play with it so you have it back.

Nothing going right for him at the moment.
Doesn't seem shot.
Hes still trying things. You type like he's completely out of confidence and not trying to do anything, yet he's always showing further up the pitch etc.

Fair enough.

Big improvement needed in the 2nd half

Let's have a look at Bowen on for Vaulks.
He may go for it as we still have pack on to take long throws....ball will only fly over his head anyway.

Hes getting forward but no **** can slide a ball into him. It’s pitiful. It really is.

That’s what it looked like to me, it was a more difficult ball to control than it should have been, but it was still careless by Colwill I think it was.
Think there might be a few tea cups being thrown at half time in the City dressing room.

Not good
Were not winning the ball. We give it away when we have it.
Not a good half for our Academy starlets

He can’t do any worse than Vaulks. To call him a headless chicken would be an insult to poultry.

This mob aren't intelligent enough to come up with a plan like that, put it down to a brain dead midfielder feckin' up the throw.

Chill. We’re a second half team!

But that's the tactics, no options, get the ball forward as quickly as possible. We need someone around Moore, although the service he's had has been appalling.

I agree with you, which is why that had to have been a training ground move that went horribly wrong. As much as you don't like Vaulks, I don't believe for one minute that wasn't a planned move. It was rubbish though.

Shot is probably the wrong choice of word.
His positioning isn’t in question and surely that would come from the manager.
His passing has been very poor.

Just said the same thing before reading your post. That wasn't supposed to happen!

The tactics are not win the ball and then play a simple 5 yards pass back to the opposition. Count the number of times it happens!
Often, not even under pressure.
