Official Rags v The Team from Manchester thread

[TFC]

We haven't been shite at all. We're playing the rags, who are arguably the best team in the world. We're not that bad, we're just lacking some ideas in the final third. They have scored one lucky goal and one superb strike. Quit whining and don't blame stop pointing at individuals. We can still get back in to the game, but we'll need to get Petrov in to do so IMO. We're lacking any width which means the rags can play narrow and we have no space to get through the middle

Agreed. Petrov is a must as we are lacking width down both flanks. Wouldnt mind seeing Boj on for big Phil also.

We have been shite and lack any ideas in the final third.

Agreed.

 

[amehh]

Let's not get too over-dramatic folks and turn on our most valuable players.

Let the rags laugh it up all they like, the fuckers will be crying soon enough.

Damage limmitations this. Fear the fuckin worst.

 

[Malhor]

as others have said..Ireland and Elano playing terribly today...

i`d give it 10 mins after half time for them both and then make changes.

Agreed

 

[Dancini]

2 up front is the way to go. Elano off for Petrov, then move Robbie up front and Ireland to RM. IF Caicedo doesn't do much then get Boji on.

 

[DontLookBackInAnger]

We are playing a very good side and have had more of the ball without threatening too much, the first "goal" was never a free kick and the 2nd was a class finish, let's not go over the top as to how badly we are playing.

I agree...

still Elano and Ireland hasnt played after their ability... and we need to bleed some players like bojinov, and petrov so some changes, a fast goal and the game is on

Elano and Ireland have not have great games thats true.

 

[LazyArse]

Caicedo has been useless.

Seen better players in the Bury game.

Am I the only one who thinks we have played well today? We are definitely short up front and mistakes have cost us but on the whole we are doing alright. Don't forget we are playing the best team in the country unfortunately!

 

[bert38]

We have been run off our legs by a superior team. Control, pace and movement up front is too much for us to handle. Its not Elano's fault, or Ireland's or Dunne's-they are unfortunately a better team
We have tried to play but we are not good enough to do that. The players look hesitant when we attack through fear of losing the ball.
