[69FACUPfinal]

Can see these fukers getting a breakaway and scoring……

As sure as I sat here getting more and more frustrated!

And I will probably be piled on but I don't rate Savinho at all! God knows how he got those numbers for Girona.

Need to play with a bit more urgency……

This is it. We don't move the ball quick enough in the final third to pull players out of position and create any space. It is all slow and methodical. It's not easy though playing against teams set up this way.

For me that was a penalty. He raised his arms to block the cross. Odd not to give it.

Why are we not just giving erling a few balls to chase or whip it in early. I honestly don’t get it sometimes. They have 10 back so we need to be quick or smash it in early

Boring this.

They're nearly Slovan Bratislava bad, just got more sense putting 11 behind the ball. Makes for a shite game though.

Doesnt seem as if im missing much, seems like yet another wank CL game.
Im off to bed, gotta be up at 3am

Our breakaway strategy is pass the ball around until they have 10 men back

I'd love to see us do a quick successful counter. Basically like every flecking team does against us...

savi and foden having fantastic impact

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Our breakaway strategy is pass the ball around until they have 10 men back

or they fall asleep

I wonder what goes through Haaland’s head when he sees the shooting prowess of some of the other players? He must be like “why can’t you be like me?”
