Full time already? Fuck me I must have been asleep

Just going with the flow……

Classic game against Moyes. Play well, their keeper has a blinder, we miss big chances, they score their only chance.

Also Doku has had a good game, but what's going on with his pace? Over 10 metres he's Usain Bolt. Over 100 metres he's Eric the Eel.

Harsh score line.

Haaland has had an absolute mare that half.

Doku has been electric at times but was at fault for their goal. Situational awareness miles off it and didn’t put the yards in tracking back.

Not got much on the bench have we?

Doku didn’t track back well and it will be addressed. But your attackers are going to give the ball away at midfield occasionally and you need to be able to defend it. We had numbers back and somehow conspired to leave an unmarked man. Doku made the first mistake but imo is not at fault for the goal. There’s no excuse for our not having defended that situation better

Doku needs to come off or we go more behind good attacking but has no defensive side to his game we might as well have gone for Leroy

We are just walking into a 10 man wall. The little momentum we had stalls , we give the ball away - they score . Rinse and repeat.
Despite that if we took our chances the game would be over.

Should've been three up inside the first 20 minutes, then conceded with some of the worst defensive plays I've seen in a long time, need to score early in the second half.

Thought we played pretty well overall, but the goal was a really poor one to concede. Going to be a tough second half though, and no real options on the bench to change things.

 

[Gray]

17 shots to 3, 8 Corners to 2 but if you miss the chances we keep missing then means nothing

Same old, same old.

Suddenly it’s only 2 minutes. We’re back to the old rules

There was nearly another minute added to that two.

There was no time wasting in the half. The ball has been in-play nearly the whole time, and even when there was a injury both players (Dias and Antonio) waved away the physios.

So there was just the goal celebration.

2 minutes with 47 second on top of that was spot on.

No reason to go paranoid for no reason.

LOL at the flapping
