thenige Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 We’re just a Sports Direct football team. Bargain basement, too good for the Championship (currently) and too poor for the Prem. Not really doing much for me from an entertainment perspective either, but that’s just the way football is when it comes to the haves and the have nots. At least we’re not Sunderland.

Guest neesy111 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 We just need better players across the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Anyway, we were always losing that. Two absolutely colossal games coming up; frustrating there's such a long gap in-between them. Seems so daft when you consider spells like Christmas/New Year, and they're cramming in as many fixtures as possible... meanwhile we're going to have to wait exactly three weeks between games. Has that ever happened before? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Well that was mind numbing, and totally expected. That’s why I switched it off after the first few minutes when I saw how we had lined up. Was always only going to go one way. Not really in the mood to celebrate a 2-0 defeat either, just because it wasn’t a humping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Lascelles also could have had a 2 game ban for trying to win a pointless penalty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I believe in earning luck and what-have-you, it's a pity that we've wasted an enormous percentage of our good karma with that stupid, needless foul from Lascelles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Done by ball watching and players being out of position when caught on the transition. Defensively very comfortable I thought but them are the margins. Zero attacking threat really which is disappointing and kind of negative subs in being like for like. I would have started with Perez over Atsu. Diame very good again and Kennedy my MOTM for us. He was everywhere and we have to sign this lad. If he wasn’t so preoccupied with getting back and defending, he’d be a real threat. I like him a lot. They are a great team, one of the best inEurope, so it’s no shock really, but for all our good defending they didn’t really get out out of second gear at times. Such a shame for Rafa to have to come to Anfield which is essentially a Championship side. I thought Kenedy was shite, amazed he could be someone's MotM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think there was a penalty in the game, there was no way he could have got out of the way. He was stupid on the last challenge mind, but I think it was a natural reaction that most even the best defenders would have made. He got away with it and we deserve a bit of luck. I was more pissed off with the way he left Salah when marking him to make a run central which left Salah free on goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gave the ball away a few times and was irritating with some of his decision making but he was a constant outlet. Carried the ball forwards, never stopped at both ends and is clearly a very good player. Our best player alongside Diame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
