Guest neesy111 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 People are overrating our squad, it's strong but it's not head and shoulders above other teams imo. I don't see anywhere enough goals in our 4 strikers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BONTEMPI Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Can't start jumping the gun. Yeah it was poor that we lost the game but we are still one of the better teams. Our form and ability will be the difference as the season goes on. You are so on crack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 As obvious a result as there is when you don't take your chances. The last two matches have been clichés. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our form and ability will be the difference as the season goes on. You are so on crack. I agree with him tbh. For 70 minutes we bossed it. Against one of the top 3 squads in the league. If this was a Premier League game between say Arsenal and Man Utd, you'd not expect the away side to dominate for a full 90 minutes without the home team at least responding late on and creating chances after being piss poor for the majority of the match (which is what happened today). They've still got players who could do something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Still think its a good result however we need to see the Mitro Gayle partnership in action instead of playing one or the other Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsley Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 We looked fairly adventurous when we put six past QPR. The systems talk is going to get annoying. We only drew today because of crap finishing. There's no more to it than that. Who were the crap finishers, and who put them into the system. Cause the system will need to be questioned. Every week if we lose, we should ignore the system, and just blame everything on poor finishing. Gayle up top by himself. It's never going to work. But if Gayle and Diame had both scored, you would surely have to concede that the system was a success? Gayle's chance came from the high press, which was a big feature of our play in the first half, and Diame's from ghosting into the box from deep - were these not parts of the 'system'? It's wrong IMO to paint this result as some sort of systemic failure when the margins are so fine; we'd have won this at a canter had we scored a second and we created more than enough opportunities to do so.

SEMTEX Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 When we're still playing the likes of Barnsley next year, I'll take solace in knowing that we once put six past QPR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, although we need to keep possession far better than we did 2nd half. The Diame miss give them a massive lift, also our fans singing shite about how shit villa was got their fans going. Do it at 3-0 not 1-0 ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 5th isn't great given we probably should be winning the league given our resources but the Championship season is so long I'm sure we'll get into a rhythm at some stage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Totally went to pieces when Yedlin went off and had to move Hayden to full back and bring Tiote on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 No one to blame but the players who missed all of the clear cut chances we made. Team was fine, performance was fine, plenty of chances created, subs were ok, players fluffing their lines cost us. Don't take your chances when they come then you've got no one else to blame but yourself. Didn't finish them off and it's cost us 2 points today.

I'm 100% a Rafa guy but the approach to subs was passive. The midfield were dead on their feet and not replaced early enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yedlin going off was a blow and we lost all momentum and control of the game. Inability to handle Gestede and cede time and space was a bit frustrating. The game should have been done by ht.
