Moe: Okay, punching isn't your thing.  But that's okay.  You're not that kind of fighter.  What you're gonna do is stand there while your opponent gets exhausted from over-punching.

Homer: Then I can just push him over.

Moe:That's right, and if the ref's not looking, you can kick him a couple of times.

 

:lol: so apt

We're sitting very deep, basically we have conceded the midfield to them and putting 9 or 10 behind the ball, hacking it long whenever they press us. Very shaky start.

 

Which we can't afford to do with Shola on the pitch as he has no ability to retain possession or run into space for a long ball to worry them on the break.

 

His inclusion is a big part of the problem in the early stages imho.

Is it me or is Carroll not even looking that bothered? Gets a header, realises no one's actually there to take it and just stands there.

 

None of them do, he surprised me aswell mind.

 

But at the same time, I can't help but feel it's Hughton's tactics. No one seems to be pressing and hasslng them. We're standing off them as soon as the 'keeper's got the ball.
