Doug Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Tiote off to accomodate Nolan dropping back, HBA out wide to accomodate Nolan pushed up, Jonas benched to accomodate the above, WTF is going on! Played with 10 men again and fucked up the front and midfield formations just to make sure there was no cohesion, well done NUFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Tiote was not a 9, man. The praise is too much. He did his job relatively well, but he looked uncomfortable with the ball at his feet in Stoke's half, lost the ball twice in dangerous areas, and generally dwelt a bit too much. He's a good player for the long run, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 was Tiote who was tackled, went down then got up when we got the ball btw If it was the time I'm thinking about then he got up and limped for a few minutes, he didn't look as if he was acting at all.

The Prophet Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Nolan has to go like. Ben Arfa clearly needs to be playing in the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good player for the long run, though. I genuinely think he had an excellent first half plus a bit. He just seemed so composed with the ball and there was a couple of occasions where he emerged with the ball when I have no idea how he got it. He was one of the few bright sparks in a desperately disappointing performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, but you just know that he will be there vs. City and ever game for the foreseeable future knocking in the odd penalty or rebound to justify his place in the mind of the manager, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfroP Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 fookin disgrace that was. hughton got the tictacs completely wrong. He should have stuck arfa up front in nolans position, pulled that useless fat Sam style player off the pitch and stuck Jonas on the left. Pull Carrol of and stick either ameobi or lovenkrands on instead. crap game, poor result and stoke are a horrible mud guppy team with horrib tactics. fekkin long throwing mackem rejects Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Five o Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Back to earth again Fucking weak by Hugthon today. Carroll all alone up front.... Nolan out, Arfa central and Jonas left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Amazing how I was shot down for saying barton was very poor in the match, but many people after the match saying the same as me. I guess people like not agreeing with me then Pissed off with the players and management for the 2nd half farce. Hughton's subs are useless IMO, but players need to take blame for the way in which they fell apart in that 15 min period 2nd half, where was Nolan in trying to bash heads around in that period, missing like he was 2nd half.

brummie Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I really can't stand watching Stoke play. I'd rather have my eyeballs injected with molten lead than watch that dross week in, week out. That Delap throw in is one of the most horrible things in football. They also seem to have some sort of hex on us whereby they fuck us up in the very last minute. However, having said that, if Tony Pulis's job is looked at in terms of keeping Stoke in the top flight and establishing them, he's doing a fucking excellent job. Despite looking like a very minor member of the Soprano crew with that tracksuit / baseball cap look. You really can't knock the job he's doing.

As a consequnce of that and the subing of Tiote we lost the midfield battle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set pieces are an important part of the game, and are an easy way of putting teams under pressure at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicago_shearer Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 If we do end up going down again, I really really hope that it's Stoke & Blackpool that go down with us. The thought of those two staying up is just nauseating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spizz energi Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 It's a real worry that we've already lost to both Stoke and fucking Blackpool at home this season. Hughton needs to sort this out fast. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Disappointed in Hughton today, not bringing Nolan off when he was contributing nothing and bringing the new two lads off when Tiote looked more likely to create something than anyone else. Ben Arfa a bit poor but should never have been brought off. It's so frustrating. We've seen that sort of thing happen so many times, go one nil up and just completely bottle it. Stoke probably worth a draw but I think they were lucky to win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 That stoke muppet will now seem vindicated but once again Stoke rape a team in the last few minutes. I don't care about seeming high and mighty or patronizing, they play a horrible fucking style of football. Mighty pissed off at Perch too, he's looking like creating one disaster a game.

Dave Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 This being at the end of the weekend makes it even more annoying. At least if we lose on a Saturday it's not fucking work in the morning. Feel like I've waited all week for nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 On the plus side, you're not bottom. We should be second. I know matches aren't played on paper but it's true - we've fucked up in two of the easiest home games all season which is infuriating. Points are points but given the choice part of me would have preferred us to beat Blackpool and Stoke rather than Villa and Everton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
garth Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 We were gutless again, Stoke came to bully us around and they achieved it very easily. Hughton also needs to take the blame for his substitutions fucking woeful!. We should of attacked them the whole game even in the first half when we kept possession but did fuck all with it. This hoofing it up to Carroll in the second half was never going to work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest palnese Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 The movement off the ball was shite today. Ben Arfa, Barton, Routledge and Barton all carried the ball too long without any proper option around them. It's football ABC tbf, when a teammate is in possession, you move into empty space to make yourself available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
