jdckelly Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 As previously it just makes you wonder why the performances are so staggeringly inconsistent. I know the players themselves are inconsistent and so is the opposition but the workrate, pressing, passing and movement today was lightyears ahead of some of the shite we've served up in recent weeks. We attacked them at pretty much every opportunity and got the rewards. The squad clearly isn't good enough but there's enough quality there to deal with most teams in this league. It can only be a mentality/tactics thing. Personally I'd say the Cabaye sale completely derailed us as a team, the entire side and tactics were built with him as the key man with no natural replacement so losing him there was obviously going to be a fall in form and performance which was exacerbated by tiote and remy being out for periods too. This affected confidence as well so the win last week was huge, failure to score the goal despite some ridiculous misses and god only knows what it would have done to the team. Seems now that the correct balance in the team has been found (at least vs meh opposition) and if we can repeat this performance there could be a strong end to the season with few games you'd expect us to struggle in (in theory) left. Of coarse I may just be ridiculously over optimistic as usual That would make a lot of sense had we not put in an excellent display of controlled, passing football in the very first match after Cabaye left. in which we failed to score and lost our best striker to stupidity which no doubt affected confidence Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Playing really well damaged confidence just because we didn't score? We'll have to agree to disagree on that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Highlights showed fair reflection of the game? Hull had the better chances 1st half, we dominated the 2nd after conceding. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Didn't the commentator on MOTD not say something about him having fresh legs, which helped to create the goal? He literally walked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemtizz Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 No focus on the match itself on MotD - all about feckin Pardew /o\ Not 1 second of analysis, and then if they do give some it's lazy nonsense. Their analysis of Cabaye vs. Palace was pretty hilarious. "Here's Cabaye playing a nice through ball. Here he is out wide beating a couple players. Here is his goal."

geordiesteve710 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Did anyone else see the very old outrageously gay man dressed in a monkey onesie outside a chippy on the way back to the town from the KC. kept asking the chippy staff if they were out the night when they understandably said no he countered with 'you poor dear you cant afford it can you you work in a chip shop' would love to think he does the same thing every week winding them up more and more every time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
