Fook me our passing is shocking.

Just hit a few long balls city.
We have to change something

Zero energy in every position

I’m just on the fifa website (in US). Didn’t need to register, just watched two commercials before it put me through to feed.

Sounds good to me. Cheers

Backwards, sideways, backwards…..rinse and repeat

The Yardbirds' follow up to Over, Under, Sideways, Down ?

 

[Blueknows]

This is so shit

Sideways , Sideways, back , Sideways, back at least we have good passing accuracy stats

Not a single good chance yet. Same approach as what's got us 1 win in 6. Slow, safe sideways football. Eventually we create some space out wide where our wingers practically stop, allow the opposition to get back into position and we go back and repeat the process. It's just wank.

It’s a fear of taking a risk in the final third just wanting to keep possession at all costs rather than take that risk,slow and ponderous..

How could anyone argue Nunes is anything but terrible?

Until we see him play midfield consistently we can't judge him accurately

 

[madloaf]

Are we playing for penalties

Have we never seen us take penalties?

 

[OntarioBlue]

I'm convinced Grealish could be through on goal, have the keeper fall over and he'd still pass it backwards

Tbf he can do square passes as well

 

[wolviedinho]

What happened to our quick triangle passing of yesteryear?

It’s crazy how we struggle. I am all for a strong physical team but it’s went too lopsided.

Kick and rush until Kev returns.

 

[Bigga]

For all the moaners on here please explain what we are supposed to do against an 11 man defence, there's no fucking space to do anything.

It doesn't help that we're playing at half pace when our strength is in one touch passing and moving!
