  1. Wait, so is he saying the second half was difficult, so they just packed it in and thought sod it we'll just sit back? :lol:

     

    Did he instruct them to do this then? What is going on at this club man? :lol:

  2. It might even be that he's not good enough in other ways, maybe he doesn't attack the spaces in the penalty area like all good forwards should. But how can you know when we barely get the ball into those areas? For all his trickery, I can remember one decent cross coming in from Maximin. Don't think there was even one from the other side.

     

    The guy never sees the ball :lol:

     

    When last did we even see him get an opportunity to miss a chance? :lol:

  3. Someone from the coaching staff really needs to tell them to stop floating long balls from deep to Joelinton, he's barely bothering to challenge for them now.

     

    And I don't blame him either. It's ridiculous how often the team just flings things in his general direction.

    However, as a number 9 he is actually a target man.  I would expect him to have some sort of hold up play but he has none!

     

    He's a ton better when it is being played into his feet, and his hold up and link up is really good when that happens.

     

    Launching it at his dome from 50 yards is ridiculous.

    His hold up play is non existent.  You are talking crap!

     

    I can't be bothered arguing this man :lol:

     

    I really don't care enough. The whole team and setup under this manager is pointless :lol:

     

    Joelinton has given up on life and others will continue to follow and go down the toilet. We stink!

    Kaka, I apologise for being abrupt but this bloke completely astounds me.  And not in a good way.  I honestly can't see what he brings to the team.  If he is not a centre forward then why is Bruce playing him there?  This signing is very suspicious and awful, especially when you factor in why Rafa was so against it.  The whole Joelinton signing stinks to the high heavens.

     

    I hear you man. It's frustrating. The way I see it nothing int his team will work with Bruce at the helm. There is no plan or decent thought in our approach play.

     

    Even with Rondon upfront it wouldn't work. play Kane, Vardy, Firmino, Aguero up there? Nothing. Drgogba in his hey day? Thierry Henry? Van Nistelrooy? Van Persie? they'd all look like turd.

     

    It's all pointless, and so trying to determine which players to blame is just a waste of energy.

     

    Even with Saint Maximin we can see some really useful skill, but the manager has not instructed him to deliver the ball in time and be more team oriented in the final third. As much as I like him, he's been doing this since he cam in the team. Why no change?

     

    Look at Almiron, by now, maybe have him switch sides just for a different look and see if he has more luck there, particularly as that is where he has mostly played prior to joining, and where he featured under Rafa. No. The manager just does nothing.

     

    It's a joke.

  4. I'm glad he has flopped, hopefully Mike is fuming.

     

    Everyone will flop man.

     

    Even ASM as dangerous as he is will not translate to anything tangible, because the whole setup, plan and approach is completely ineffective.

  5. Joelinton’s hold up play is actually ok, it’s just that he has no one to lay the ball off too. Almiron and ASM are playing on the wings, he needs someone more central. The Longstaff brothers are too far back because of how the plays and sits back. A better manger would have a better system, the transition from defence to attack would be better. Right now we are hoping that ASM or Almiron out run the opposition.

     

    We saw it numerous times in the earlier games this season, and in the threads for those matches numerous people commented on it.

     

    Think the guy is fed up of playing in a team that has minimum possession and only ever aims long balls at his head. It's disgusting really.

  6. Every game we have 30% possession.

     

    We hardly ever get to pass the ball high up the pitch and involve him in any capacity.

     

    It's either aimless long balls at his head, with no support near him, or we are counter attacking.

     

    The guy knows it's a shit show and can't be arsed. The whole thing is a farce.
