Good idea.
Dreadful game. Need to sort out set piece defence and stop being so scared to have a shot on goal. If we end up giving the ball away as a result, so be it. We stand more chance scoring from a quick counter then the endless ponderous passing, which is driving me crazy.
Hopefully just a bad day, we need to get this out our system, and fast.
I do think that shite yellow card he got before the first goal might have been on his mind. It was a bullshit card.Very poor all round, some we almost expect it from especially away from home.
But what happened to VDV? It was like he forgot how to defend, overcompensating THREE times and allowing players to cut back in onto their stronger feet instead of showing them the other way.
The third goal he just went to sleep.
Plenty to learn from, let's hope he does it quickly.
Yes true but Veliz is a young long term signing which is our way. Richarlison proved the season before he's not good enough. Ok he's been better this season. But still not good enough.still, he and veliz are what you would want in the box when you have two wide men. not a fucking pussy whos scared of heading the ball and scared of any physical contact.
Fuck me, that's a 'favour' I could really do without.Don't worry, by the time the Arse cruise into double figures against them tomorrow, they'll be back down in 5th, and we'd have technically 'moved back into 4th without even playing' either!
u cannot really organise at the centre circle once your last fullback is running facing your own goalie abreast an opposition striker in full flight with the ball or chasing the ball in front of you. FFS how do you organise ??You can have bad days at the office but lets all be real for second, our defending at times this season has been under nines level.
Zero organisation, its so easy to get at us.
Strangely, the ref pointed at parts of the pitch where other of our players had committed fouls, so he got booked for "totting up". I've never seen a player booked for other players cumulative fouls before. He was probably including Newcastle fouls too.I do think that shite yellow card he got before the first goal might have been on his mind. It was a bullshit card.
Son can absolutely do that in system where we have most of the ball provided you kept the ball to him quickly. There will always be opportunities for transition. The season started that way. Ange allows them now to keep the ball and pass incredibly slowly. So he's marked out of the game.The best part of Son's game is stretching the pitch in the transition. In the current system the transition game is not the point of emphasis.
At least we SCORED against them last season!!!We didn't lose 0-5

It's almost as if someone should be getting paid millions to organise the team, why haven't they done that?u cannot really organise once your last fullback is running facing your own goalie abreast an opposition striker in full flight with the ball or chasing the ball in front of you.

You have to wonder what’s left to motivate the playersIn fairness to Ange, he did say he couldn't care less about fourth.
So did we all, wish i was blind!Those deaf kids with the vibrating shirts must be getting quite a shaking up.

I noticed that. MentalStrangely, the ref pointed at parts of the pitch where other of our players had committed fouls, so he got booked for "totting up". I've never seen a player booked for other players cumulative fouls before. He was probably including Newcastle fouls too.
