What a strike
-
Sissoko's been absolutely awful like
-
Yes, you are right about the headers, so it's likely less to do with that. Think he just wants an alternative striker that is tougher, as Morata is a bit of a sissy. Falls over so much. Have no idea why he doesn't like Mitchy. Cos he's awful at hold up play
-
If only everything could be as peacefully unsegregated as it is in Ireland. That's kind of the point though. The culture's are very similar and both have a fighting culture. Beating the shit out of people who happen to support a different team to you is just mental to me
-
You'd support fans being unsegregated? So no away end? Would be a great way to kill off one of the things that makes football by far the most interesting sport. No I think it adds to the atmosphere in football. I just don't understand why anyone would feel the need to fight at a football game I can't understand how you can't understand that. Not that I've ever gotten in a fight at a match like, but it's completely understandable how when people are emotional, angry, and possibly drunk, that there'll be fights. That's before getting onto throwing opposition fans in the mix. Doesn't happen at other sports though. 82,000 go to All Ireland hurling and football finals each year, with no segregation and there's never any bother in the stadium. It's not normal in my opinion

Matt Ritchie (now Technical Director at Bournemouth)

One thing I don't get is, why doesn't he cross the ball earlier instead of constantly cutting back? You don't need pace for that, just got to look at Albrighton's crossing, and Beckham's for that matter. Lack of confidence? Maybe Rafa has instructed him not to? Its frustrating like and doesn't help our attack at all. Gayle was furious with him a few matches back IIRC. He's a left footed player that predominantly plays on the right. Of course he cuts in. I'm sure Beckham would get it onto his right if he was played on the left, and Albrighton does exactly that at all times. FWIW, I have no problem with Ritchie, he's in poor form at the moment, that's really obvious, but at a basic level he gives you a certain amount of tenacity and desire to get involved that you wouldn't get with other players. When he's back in form he'll be fine. Been "out of form" for absolutely ages mind Only a couple of months. Compare that to Perez. Aye but I wouldn't say Perez is out of form. He's just not very good, in the position he's played in for the last two and a half seasons anyway -
Don't understand the whole fans needing to be segregated myself. Seems to be a football only issue mainly

Well he can't carry the ball because of his lack of pace like -
Robbie Keane going to Wolves apparently http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/what-the-f-tom-delonge.gif

Deeney's a wanker
-
Aye not like we've ever been relegated with Mitrovic as our main striker in a much better team before
-
I think he's been ok lately in his hold up play. Luuk de Jong was absolutely miles worse for us
-
Is there really any need for us to be playing again on Monday like? Players surely won't be recovered in that time
-
We should've kept Graham Carr
-
The players look totally bereft of confidence. Understand why he does it but don't think it helps when he talks about how shit they are
-
His shitness on the ball wouldn't be as noticeable if any of our players ever gave an option other than the two centre halves
-
Just saw Benevento won today
-
Merino probably was our best but he wasn't even good. Really inconsistent atm
-
HTT has gone from calling Rafa the equal of Bobby Robson and Kevin Keegan to wanting him to be sacked within about a week
-
The players are poor, no question but we should be able to have more threat
-
Don't do that when you handball it ffs Hayden
-
He's really not that good at that either tbh. His supposed defensive reliability is massively overstated imo. He puts himself into positions where he *has* to make hero defensive stops, which isn’t the sign of a good defender. Just got merked the fuck out by Knockaert Well that's the only time its happened in the game up against a tricky winger and he recovered really well
