Superb from Nunes , but we desperately need Haaland , KDB and Doku fit again

The possibility of having those three on the pitch at the same time gives me hope for the rest of the season.

If we win this we will certainly have to up our game abit against fluminese.

 

[TueartsCossackSpray]

tell you what, they don’t arf park a good bus. I’m sure if we had Doku on we’d have had considerably more chances though eh?

 

[chesterbells]

Pitch is a fuckin disgrace

Agreed mate, but he seems to have slipped most.

Kovacic off for Bobb please Pep. This kind of game just doesn't suit his strengths.

What are his strengths?

 

[Blu1]

Does anyone get pissed off with the same shite every week , opposing teams parking the bus and showing no ambition , weirdly on of the best football macthes ive watched this season was Villa away at least they gave it a go and beat us fair and square.
It makes a change instead of individual mistakes costing us points against Chelsea,Spuds and Palace , six points dropped that we might rue at the end of the season

Agree but I don’t think we are showing much ambition either

It’s not good, thought I’d pop in to see what was being said but it’s dreadful stuff.

We’ve dominated a team that isn’t playing a normal game as per the norm. They’ll be knackered second half, working their tits off and that’s about it.

We’ve probably got too many defensive minded players on the pitch for this, hopefully get a second goal quickly and get a few of the young lads on - would be ideal for Bobb and Hamilton.

Won't happen, but would get Hamilton on at h/t

 

[madloaf]

Are we back on jack now then? Hard to keep up these days

Yeah. Jack is the reason were conceding late penalties and 2 goal leads. Keep up

I sound like I am having a stroke trying to say the name of this team we're playing.

I think you're on the wrong website fella!

 

[xmusampa]

We're in first gear - which based on current form isn't what I was hoping to see.
Is it pretty - no. Was I hoping we'd start to show some form - abso-fuckin-lutely.
We're winning though, and you can only beat the 11 camped on the edge of their box.

If this is a showcase for world football then I’m out. It’s boring. Makes the second half v Crystal Palace seem like a classic. Yawn
