Segun Oluwaniyi Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 It's a shame because I like how Tony Mowbray goes about setting up his team to play decent passing football, but in the summer they really should have signed a couple of experienced Premiership players and packed the midfield and went one up top and played long ball. Was a brave decision to give it a good shot but a stupid one ultimately. All about the players man. Watford did exactly that and were embarrassing. Stoke are doing this and aren't in a particularly better position than the Ablions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
indi Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I remember him getting laughed onto the pitch at Anfield and walking off it as man of the match. Actually if memory serves me correctly, he was applauded onto the field at Anfield....by the Liverpool fans correct, it was 05-06 and he walked off an hour and a half later having comfortably been our best player Aye, that's exactly what I was talking about.

Stoke are doing this and aren't in a particularly better position than the Ablions. Premiership experience? Damien 'moves and fucks his knee' Francis? Chris 'no legs' Powell? We played long ball because we couldn't play passing football, we had two decent wingers, a keeper and a striker (who got crocked in October). We never had a chance man. We had nowhere near enough Premiership experience, and we only played long ball because that's all we could do. Actually though, we didn't really get tonked. Only Manure, Arsenal and Chelsea away plus Liverpool at home, were the only 'embarrassing' games, and even then they weren't all that bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 WTF are Liverpool playing at? I mean its all great them bottling the title yet again, but FFS, do it against a team worthy of 3pts, not Boro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I f***ing hate Ian (The Prophet), hacking b***tard! To set the story straight, despite his wind-up abilities: I support Everton, I've supported Everton for as long as I can remember, my parents are from Newcastle, but grew up in Darlington. He enjoys winding me/everyone else up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistle17 Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Titus Shambles once again Wigan's star player Decent coaching goes a long way. Defending isn't about talent, it's about coaching, discipline and organisation, without that talent is useless. Titus had the ability, but none of the rest, now he's getting it, it's no wonder you never see him having the piss ripped out of him on MOTD or whatever. Why did Andy O'Brien look like a kingpin at times under Bobby and Titus always looked like he was going to f*** up every two minutes? Whilst i agree that Bruce's faith in Bramble will have helped him, the main reason why he's performing much better is because he hasn't got 50,000 people on his back. Andy O'Brien never looked like a kingpin under Bobby tbh Yes he did. I'm with Ronaldo on this one- O'Brien just made me feel so nervous when he got on the ball. I've never been a fan of his,tbh. If we had a much better player alongside Woody, instead of O'Brien or Bramble, then we would've pushed Man Utd all the way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 O'Brien was never the same after that Bergkamp goal at the Gallowgate imo. We had to play Arsenal 3 times in a fortnight and you could see the fear in his eyes after the third game. He was solid at best and a nervous wreck after those games - Bergkamp tortured him.

Yorkie Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Was class when he nicked a goal at Highbury though. We'd been absolutely raped until he nodded that one in. Christ, that week. Arsenal 1-3 Newcastle, Leeds 3-4 Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
