One day in and seems we're halfway-ish to the general vote total of last year. If you've not voted yet go do your forum duty! Lurker or not a lurker, you know how to press "vote".
Carew hasn't officially retired either. Was asked about it in a TV interview before christmas and he just laughed when they asked if he'd consider playing football again

Simple pass for someone of his ability and the guy was sprinting and would have definitely got it for the tap in
I disagree with that tweet pinning the defeat on him for that, but he should have passed like. Any 3 of Barca's front 3 would have got the assist in that situation
Easy clearance for the keeper and/or defender there. No way should he pass.
Are you serious? He's basically got a 10 yard gap to play it through Even if it's stightly overhit and to the far corner of the 6yd box it's still a tap in on the slight angle
Defender moving towards it and keeper in touching distance. It's a simple block unless he lobs it over the gap.

Our crosses are mostly shit as well tbh. I don't have an issue understanding Mitro having issues positioning himself when he knows he'll have no idea where a cross would be aimed.
tl:dr we need proper wingers.
Don't see how we do
He thrives on crosses into the box. We should be hammering the box with early crosses. Instead our wide players walk around a bit when we're countering and then pass it back to Colback.
Madrid have been looking at Ben Arfa many times during his career. Would be no surprise if they did now as well considering his form. If that translates to them actually having an interest in buying him is something else entirely, naturally.
Would be fun to see how our median guesses would have translated into a league table, but understand it may be too big a hassle, even for Alta, to put together
Happy new year! It's that time again, the time to find our the best and the worst of N-O in 2015.
