Sideways passing looking good

 

[Paleblue2]

hope jeremy has his shooting boots on

 

[King Jay]

Too many attacks go through Bernardo. I don’t like that

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Kova caught on the ball twice in last few minutes, can't afford that against a pacy team

 

[01cravend]

Guehi has been brilliant so far, doing all our defending

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Few times kova has lost it now

 

[youngbob]

Kovacic struggling a bit. Bournemouth really congesting that middle third.

 

[Chak19]

We love slowing it down and allowing the opposition to get 10 men behind the ball don't we ?

 

[Blu1]

Ffs what’s up with us ? Everybody looks so slow

 

[heslops barnet]

Kova looking shite off the ball

And on the ball…rusty

 

[elbearos]

Not a bad little team Bournemouth

 

[homerdog]

I mean, it was obvious, you’d only need eyes.

That's what VAR said!

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

I mean, it was obvious, you’d only need eyes.

I didn’t even cheer, it was that clear and that’s from the telly!

 

[stan bowles]

How many players have Bournemouth got on the pitch? They're everyfuckingwhere!!

They've had 9 days off to prepare.

 

[waspish]

They’ve realised close down Kovacic quickly they win it back most times

 

[Gabriel]

Quite similar to other games down there. They come out of the traps looking to catch you cold, especially at the start and after the break.

Our midfield is not committing forward, so we often have only Haaland in the box.

Best hope of a goal is sucking them up the park and then springing Haaland from deep.

 

[madloaf]

How many players can we start instead of Cherki in a row that aren't as good as cherki.

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

Defended Kovacic plenty on here - but been woeful thus far tonight.
Losing possession constantly, and slow in recovery

 

[theholysmurf]

Nunes controlled that well because Kova absolutely launched it at him

 

[ALDN_Ko]

If we’re going to get anything out of this game, there has to be a lot more urgency
