  1. Aye we get plenty crosses in like, more than most teams I would imagine
  2. As TCD said Mitrovic often reacts late to crosses and can't get a run in the defender. For example for his overhead kick yesterday, just before it Janmaat puts in a pretty good cross and Mitrovic didn't even move towards it when it was a perfect ball to attack
  3. One of the reasons he's lucky to get on the end of one or two crosses in a game is that he can't get above defenders to head the ball. That goal against Arsenal is the last minute, Arsenal's defence is completely stretched and he's in a race with Mertesacker to get to the ball first, good header like but that situation won't come up very often. Andy Carroll is different because he has a massive leap and is also a bit taller so you can put in any kind of cross and Carroll will probably get on the end of it
  4. 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. When we do get crosses in he almost never looks like scoring, and getting crosses in from the right is basically our only game plan
  5. Anita and Colback in the middle, what could go wrong?
  6. One clear cut chance, IIRC - where Gini had a a 1-1 on Cech and the keeper saved. Rest were perhaps half-chances. Mitro's one after Perez(I think) headed back across was pretty good
  7. I'm on tapatalk so not sure if it's the same on the full site though
  8. If we paid him enough he would
  9. Not a chance Madrid sell anyone of substance in January, silly season has obviously begun. He's not really getting a look in there at the moment though
  10. Sounds like an slogan for a male escort service How would you know? Experience

    Strongly doubt Lascelles is better than Colo

    Aye apart from Thauvin we don't have any subs that are going to be better than what's on the pitch, although Thauvin should be brought in earlier

    We got plenty of good deliveries in today, they just aren't going to get us many goals at this stage of their careers. Wijnaldum is our best bet for a goal by a mile Wijnaldum's finishing was atrocious today though. He's still our best bet for a goal

  16. Yeah we must be really unlucky to keep shooting blanks every week. Aye if it happens once it's luck, not every fucking game
  17. Sissoko barely able to walk the last ten minutes and he takes off Tiote
  18. What did he say? "And it looks like Mbemba is down or is that- * 15 seconds of silence* " That does occasionally happen with white players too tbf
