BlackandWhite Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 No way does he deserve the blame tonight. Poor finishing and a god awful goalkeeper let us down tonight. The goalkeeper that he signed, and that he selected tonight despite some utter crap displays. He gave him another chance yes and you'd think he wouldn't let his manager down but he did massively. I can see why he picked him and left young Darlow on the bench to give him a break. Rafa needed him to step up to the plate but he let him down, hopefully for the last time as I 'd send him back to Belgium personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 No knee-jerk from me here, he's not going to win every game and every gamble's not going to come off. Looking forward to Friday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Canny fucking hysterical this like. We were weakened against Blackburn in order to put in our all for this and I was critical of his starting line up vs Blackburn, but I have no major complaints about the match tonight aside from the inexplicable decision to play Sels. If we were weakened against Blackburn, then you need to go all out for Hull and he did...aside from Sels, and in the end that one decision cost us. I know it seems unfair to scapegoat, but it was diabolical goalkeeping like. I get why he wants to play Sels, same with giving Lazaar and Murphy a chance (I don't disagree) but that's another game we win comfortably if he's not in goal.

huss9 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 i think he deserves the blame for tonight. plenty were saying that sels shouldnt have been brought back into such an important game. its not a case of being wise after the event. and then against blackburn - changing 3 of the back 4, and refusing to make subs. other than that he has been great but he does deserve a little criticism where its due. he's not perfect, i still love him. but sometimes things need saying.

He shouldn't be changing the keeper in a game as important as that imo, especially not when he's looked unreliable at best since signing and vastly inferior to Darlow.

Funny how everyone criticised Pardew for waiting till the 70th minute, yet lord rafa waits till the 80th and is thought to be some genius at times. Double standards.

Gallowgate Toon Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Annoyed about the 'keeper swapping, he should've done it the other way round. Not going to crucify him, though. He'll take risks, some will come off and some won't. He'll win us a trophy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
