Why can't we ever just do a long ball

 

[Blu1]

Has Foden touched the ball yet?

I don’t even know his position. He need to drop deep & central to get involved

 

[nellyonthewing]

I really hate our obsession with just walking with the ball and not actually doing anything. It’s like they are told to only pass when Utd jump and press them. But if they don’t jump we do nothing.

Same old same old . They’ll score with one move. We look like we have lead in our boots

 

[argyle]

Pass pass pass leading to nothing and then they hit one hoof and we're in trouble.

 

[levets]

I’m concerned about our loose passing again

 

[Petetheblu]

Phil completely not being used....

 

[mcfc_ms]

Why is everyone ignoring the ball to Foden? Especially cancelo

 

[skillman]

We’ve got every man back when they have the ball and they leave 1 up - it’s a good, dangerous tactic I wish we’d use more often.

 

[dublin-blue]

Very tepid start. I see they have the mics turned up

 

[footballmanager]

we badly need wingers who can take fullbacks one on one

 

[Fordyboy46]

Going to be a long afternoon

 

[SleepingBlueTiger]

We've gone with safety first attitude. First pass is always backwards after winning possession

 

[Cambo]

We are so slow in the build up. Give the ball away and then they break with pace and we look all at sea.

 

[kaz7]

My nerves are still fucked.
Still feel like I could shit through the eye of a needle.

I have done enough for both of us lol

 

[glyntowen]

their direct play looks miles more effective than our slow passing but they are just hit and hope for a counter attack goal

we look so off the last few games it's unreal how badly we have dropped off, not like us at all

 

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

All our confidence and swagger has disappeared completely. We're like a Deer stuck in the headlights.

 

[buckshot]

Southampton part deux so far

 

[Blue warrior]

Shell of ourselves

 

[stan bowles]

Is there a reason Cancelo won't pass the ball to Foden? Refused simple passes to him on four occasions so far.

 

[blueparsman]

Too fucking slow
