Chrisjraby Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Need to make sure we give their forwards no space around the box, Cardozo seems to be able to get a shot away from nowhere Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 We could have been 0-4 before they scored. Bit shit from Krul on the goal really, we've weathered it reasonably well since they scored. Will be an interesting half and Pardew's subs will be vital. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Story of this team. We just cant seem to sustain positive pressure and possession. We always seem to fade. Very good scoreline so far, think we can catch them off guard again for sure! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugoinufc Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 great goal by cisse - his specality! great pass from simpson. not so great last 20 mins. their keeper actually saved cisse attempt on the post....madness. could / should have been 0-2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 So nice of Pardew to instruct us to stop playing that attractive positive football for the last 20 minutes of that half , tbf though been a great effort so far, well done lads! thatisthejoke.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I'd actually take Perch off Bigi. Don't want him on with a yellow against this lot, and I think Bigi is actually much smarter than Perch - who loves to slide tackle too much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Scoreline is pretty great, performance was too until that few seconds when we hit the post and they scored. Since then they've noticably stepped up and we're struggling to cope with their passing and movement. Pardew needs to tweak things a bit whilst retaining our attacking threat because if we get a foothold in the game again there's another goal for us here. One thing that bugs the hell out of me is. Why have someone like Perch (usually Tiote), if they dont sit in front of the back four where this team are getting space. Perch just chases it until he's completely passed out of the move. Just sit in the f***ing middle ffs. Yep, his work as a DM is normally ok except when he has to deal with a no 10 type and he can't cope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Good for the 1st 15 mins, a bit all over the place for the last 30. We seem very static. I expect that when we have the ball but I'm a bit surprised that we not picking up runners when they have the ball. We need a good team talk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 How are we? I'm on the train now on my way home from the airport. How are we getting along? Send me a pm anyone who has the power to help a fellow supporter out with some kind of analysis. And let it not be Semtex or Mike. We're looking good. Decent forechecking from Moose, Marv is playing the PG role like he lives in Orlando and Simpson thinks he's Kaepernick. Forechecking Fucking hell. How was Cisses homerun?

Klaus Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 No way we will be able to defend for all of the second half, we need the same positivity we showed at the start. If we sit back we could get torn a new one... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Absolutely terrifying first half. It's 1-1, away at Lissbon. Not too bad at all imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Priceless away goal even if they score another. If this continues, im afraid they will score more than one... Really?, in all honesty they haven't really done that much, everything has been our own doing. Their most threatening attacks all came of the back of our attacks, everything else has just been a little sloppy from us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keefaz Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Barely won a challenge in the air, though. Disappointing. Also, very slow to second balls. Need to focus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Typical Pardew. Go 0-1 up and let them back in to it. Get that cunt out & he can take Simpson and Jonas off too. Sick of the pair of them, waste of wages. MOM - Cabaye, definitely doing stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tobiazvanderziaz Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Our main problem is the space between the defence and midfield. Perch & Cabaye who should be protecting the defence are both not doing it. Totally agree. That should be the main focus defensively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 If it finishes 1-1 I'd be very happy, at this rate it won't mind. 2-1 wouldn't be an awful result mind as long as we play better second leg at home Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
