Dave Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Going forward look very good, Jona simmense, Duff , effective and as good as hes been for us, barton combative and leading well. CH pairing still frail for me, or maybe just not played enough to have understanding of each other? Barring Taylor inexplicably disappearing for the chance they should really have buried, I think they've done alright. I know what you mean though, just never feel solid. Chopping and changing all the time doesn't help like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Good job, just what we needed. We need to calm the fuck down though the majority of our passing is woeful, I'm sure thats exactly what Kinnear is telling them though. We show the opposition WAY too much respect but nerves are unavoidable given our current form and situation. A quick third after the break and we can relax a bit and start enjoying it. Some great work when we are not messing it up, looks good for the future though if we can just get the confidence to relax a bit and enjoy our football.

Nobody Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hopefully we can get a third to allow us to give Xisco a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShearMagic Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hopefully our players realise that the game isn't over yet. We must get a 3rd to put it to bed, and Taylor/Coloccini must be 100% on the ball. Doesn't take much for a game of football to change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 fancy Martins to nick another tbh. If you get him, Jonas and Xisco as a forward 3 at some point they'd be absolutely unstoppable in terms of pace and workrate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Beye is back to making those super runs forward. You can clearly see that he has a lot more faith in doing so with Jonas ahead of him, rather than Geremi. Don't think that's got anything to do with it considering his best form last season came from his understanding with Geremi down that side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopping and changing all the time doesn't help like. Where the hell was he there like? I think he's been very good this half except for that though. Enrique looks great defending, but is not good enough on the ball, IMO. That might be good enough for me at the moment though, we need to not concede two goals a game for a while.

tmonkey Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hope that performance by Gutierrez puts to bed the "Owen is out best player, we'll not get someone as good as him for a long, long time" comments. Different positions, different players, but he looks at the very least to be in the same calibre. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Well if Ameobi has stepped up to the plate while others around him shirk responsibility fair play to him. Now he's getting his run in return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umer Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Barton and Jonas playing really well, duff not looking too bad either. Not sure about Guthrie, he's giving the ball away loads... wouldn't mind seeing what Geremi coming on for him to see what thats like. And got to say, this is the best I've seen of Ameobi. He's winning loads in the air, and making some good runs! Need a 3rd to make sure though, I think we'l get too nervous if it goes 2-1! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 One criticism - Our two wingers don't understand the concept of filling in for their full back, we've been caught a couple of times where Beye or Enrique have been draw out towards the man with the ball and Duff especially has stood still and not tracked a run into the open space. Other than that good, also (I'm such a moaning cunt) Ameobi needs to drop ten yards when we haven't got the ball as we're getting overrun in there. Taylor going walkies again Frustrating as he's had a good game apart from it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Would really love to see Jonas grab one. And Martins to get another. And Shola for the cherry on the top. Then Coloccini for the glaing on the cherry. 6-0 isn't too much to ask for imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 As good as we've been, West Brom have been shocking. They're all over the shop. Bednar has hardly had a sniff and this Valero chap who is allegedly a playmaker has been simply shocking. You can only beat what's put in front of you like.
