  1. Think the penalty miss completely deflated us. Second half we came out cold and just sat back more and more as the game went on. Very frustrating and I think even a marginally better side would have punished us. Norwich were just too limited to take advantage of us. They didn't have that many clear cut opportunities as such, but they had plenty of occasions where they SHOULD have created goalscoring chances.
  2. Man Utd have played like us the other night.

    Their win percentages in league games: MoN = 31% Bruce = 28% points per game: Bruce = 1.14 MoN = 1.31 Improvement made, but not as considerable as mackems would have you think. I'd also question whether their style of play has improved at all.
  4. Last played for Gold Coast United - who don't exist anymore.
  5. I'm starting to think Barca are having a bit of an identity crisis. Seems daft despite the excellent start, but bare with me. You don't seem anywhere near as considered in possession as you were under Guardiola. There seems to be far more forcing the ball forward quickly, and also a lot more crosses from wide positions, trying to overlap the fullbacks and stretch the play. I even saw a lot of long balls straight from the goalkeeper/defence. It's as if Vilanova is trying to mix things up with direct play a lot more in response to games like the Chelsea one last year where you ran out of ideas - but I don't think it's working all that well and is sacrificing the measured domination that you normally have. Maybe I'm just being daft, but I'm yet to be completely impressed by Barca this season and you seem sloppier with the ball than usual. Worrying considering the current CB partnership.
  6. Gazzaniga. Argie keeper who was fan's favourite at Gillingham last season.
  7. Of course he is, he's fantastic. But I can see him getting 40 in this league, just too strong and too good.
  8. Quite funny that Carl Ikeme is starting ahead of De Vries in the Championship. Must be one of the worst footballing career decisions ever that one.
  9. Can only see two defeats from their next two games.
  10. Sorry like but Clark is massively overrated.
  11. Only just realised Peterborough have lost all 7 games so far. Fergie Junior is a wank manager.

    They're damn lucky Fletcher has hit the ground running and they've came out with 4 points tbh. We think we've been incoherent and generally naff so far but at no point have we been as negative as they have.
