Dokko Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Despite the result, everyone seemed pretty deflated at the end. Well the football on the pitch wasn't inspiring stuff We're not football connoisseurs, nor do we pretend to be, but when we are served recycled urine we're not fuking happy about it, though we will consume it anyway.

Great way of putting it. I simply can't believe how bad it was 2nd half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RR15 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Norwich impressed me how well they kept the ball. And since when has yellow clashed with Black/White? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theregulars Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 I actually think considering how Norwich have done this season it was a pretty good result, and personally I totally expected a performance like that. I don't mind the grittiness or the non-carpet football (provided we win), but what got my goat were all the stupid little mistakes. The dalliances in possession, the misplaced passes, falling over etc. I'd love carpet football all game but sometimes a decent opposition stops you from doing it, as I think partially happened today. Hard-working, morale-lifting and well-fought 3 points against a decent, industrious and praiseworthy mid-table side. I'll take that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Cabaye had a good game. Seems to be the flavour of the month to pick on him, fuck knows why though as he's done nothing wrong. Very close to two assists today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theregulars Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Clearly wasn't morale-lifting. I meant in terms of getting our first win in 5 games. For me that lifts morale when compared to a draw/loss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 His pass for Cissés first chance is bloody great, showed fantastic vision there. He has that in spades, it's just how often he gets the chance to do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of the squad yeah, I agree. I was too focused on the fans when I read your post... fwiw morale seemed pretty good prior to kick-off anyway.

Pata Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Just watched the game after recording it. We were really poor in the last 70 minutes. Midfield wasn't there as a unit, although Perch/Guthrie/Cabaye all played quite good individually. Perch was amazing, was flying around the pitch and pretty good in possession too. Ben Arfa worked his socks off and looked tired when substituted. Cisse's movement was greatand was unlucky not to score more. Happy for 3 points.

Geordie Ahmed Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 It was a rubbish game, really frustrating to watch BUT the 3 points were the main thing, badly needed that We started off playing well, passing it around, not many hoof balls BUT around the 20 min or so mark, I think it was when Williamson had that moment we just turned to shit I was shocked Norwich did not play Holt up front with Morison, reckon he could have bullied Williamson in the form that he is in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlights made us look a lot better than we were. True, but he was involved in almost everything positive we did today. This idea that he did nothing is a myth.

ponsaelius Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 For his 'nothingness' Cabaye could have had 3 assists today. Honestly don't think he did as bad as some thought today, thought he was far better than Guthrie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 He was supposed to be playing out wide and simply refused to. It was a very undisciplined performance by him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just stuck too close to the defenders at the minute to do it as often as we need him to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest H09 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Tactics/Formation or whatever you want to call what that was, is the reason Norwich had far too much of this game for me. Better players would have punished us. We did start decent with it, but it didn't take long for Norwich to work out how we were setup and what they could win.
