  1. This. There's no world beating talent on that team, their main goal threat isn't even playing FFF. They are a well drilled unit and a moment of luck or lapse on their end is the only way we'll score.
  2. Nah We had 10-15min of decent football post conceding, then promptly fell apart and are lucky to only be down by 1. Again, no shape, movement, other than hoofball, ASM carrying the ball up the pitch while getting hacked to shit with one easily saved header on goal in 45min. Whew.
  3. Much more lethal on the break. Much more purposeful with their movement and passing in general. Yup. They've got much better shape, feel like we've had a few glimpse's of decent movement, just not as cohesive as Southampton. Imagine that, a Decent Manager vs an almost retired Fat PE Teacher.

  5. Think we'd do decent against a 10 man Benfica, tbh. Don't mind Rangers, though.
  6. The own goal was spectacular. Nice build up to Rangers 2nd and a tidy goal by Kamara.

    Which makes it strange that bookies have them as favourite every year, yet they've basically got the same squad as everyone else around them (Hull, Charlton, Ipswich, Pompey).

    They will never be a force like they were Seriously they need new owners , build and see where it goes , they will never be anywhere near us for 10 years more in my opinion, if we get taken over it could be a generation before we play them in the league. They need to go up this season and hope someone with actual bankroll takes them over from The Don. Can't imagine what their debt situation is looking like the longer they're down there and without gate revenue.

    They did, the penalty was ridiculous at the end. Lucky they don't have VAR down there. huss9[/member] they're a playoff team at best, going to be a stroke of luck to get back up. Them losing in the playoffs would be tasty.
  10. My perception is that under Ashely's tenure we make the most average of teams/players look much better than they actually are.

    Ah gotcha, thanks Bimps. Mackem's had some help with their win yesterday, and read some comments on r/soccer that they've had other lucky calls go their way.

    When did Ipswich drop the “town” from their name? Remember it always being listed in the table with both.

  14. A better ego check would have been letting him play, judging his contribution, the effect it has on their overall play, then replacing him if he’s ineffective and saying as much post game. Screams facepalm to me, but who knows.
  15. Loving the inclusion of an expiry date in the photo. They know Mick is less Meme worthy as he ages.
