Wullie Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 The mackems' consistent ineptitude has played its part in keeping Pardew in a job, or at least keeping most of the natives from getting restless. No excuse for how disgustingly shit they are every single year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Pelle, Tadic and Mane as an attacking 3 could be sensational if they fully click. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Love it when someone like Tadic comes in and is fucking class. I'd literally never heard of Mane before but he looks as PL as possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Berahino looks like a prime candidate to be the next young player to fuck off to a rich club and not play. The story of Rickie Lambert is excellent and tragic. Worked his way up every division until he finally made it to the highest echelon, warming the bench at a top club and media darling. It's the dream. What a wally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Well, that was about what I expected to be honest. But this is a marathon, not a sprint, and I expect us to improve quite a bit throughout the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Well, that was about what I expected to be honest. But this is a marathon, not a sprint, and I expect us to improve quite a bit throughout the season. Why in the name of god did Mathieu play at LB? At first I thought he wanted it so he could balance it out a la Pep with Abidal there, but Mathieu was the most advanced of the four. Thought it was absolutely horrible decision against the pace of Reals counter-attack. Thought Alba was needed and that Rakitic should've started as well instead of Xavi. Only positive you can take from yesterday is that Neymar scored again, Messi still looked his old-self on the ball and the lack of movement killed it for him and Suarez looked fit, but not match-fit.

Village Idiot Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Mathieu had a good game imho. Xavi shouldn't play in this kind of big games unless he's part of a four-man midfield. I would have started Rakitic instead of Suárez and thrown in Suárez in the second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Well, that was about what I expected to be honest. But this is a marathon, not a sprint, and I expect us to improve quite a bit throughout the season. weird game, you lost it for me in the wide areas with marcelo and the other lads tearing you to shreds down both flanks but you offered sweet FA yourselves in the same areas at the other end of the pitch lost count how many times mathieu especially (but also alves) got forward into good positions and did nothing with it interesting your positive take on things, i didn't take a lot of positives from that for you once you went behind, in particular what are you going to do with CM? seems to me you look a significant amount of class and dynamism in there, they were far to static and slow yesterday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have started Rakitic instead of Suárez and thrown in Suárez in the second half. Yeah I don't agree, Mathieu looked out of breath after two or three forward runs and couldn't contain James at all. Gave James too much space and time on the ball as Neymar wasn't covering the left flank either. Agreed with mrmojorisin, although I do think that the midfield has been good during the season when it's been Busquets behind Iniesta and Rakitic. Should be the starting trio without a doubt, without Rakitic there is like you say no dynamism there no movement at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
