This team. THIS team is 3rd in the league, on the brink of a cup final, and breaking all sorts of records. For the love of god, cant we just support them now. Warts and all? The players above are busting a gut for the team, and absolutely smashing all previous expectations. It should be commended. Im personally so proud of every single player !

It's a lovely sentiment, and I'd expect everyone does and will carry on supporting, but the team needs to develop and grow, teams are cottoning on to how we play going forward and we need a couple of fresh faces to provide different options. As an example, my opinion is that Almirons hot streak is well and truly over and he's limited ability wise, that doesn't mean I won't be cheering his name in the gallowgate next Tuesday.

BonesJones Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Chatting on a football Discord, I have a guy tell me that Howe is using a park the bus style tactic albeit very successful. He also thinks we start with defensive players, and then bring Isak and ASM on in the hop we pinch a goal. Where is this stuff coming from? Yes I see the shithousery part of things, but in my head park the bus has always been everyone sat back hoping for that one counter goal to just shut up shop again. Is that really us, with a 22+ GD and without even checking I'd imagine around an average of 60% possession. So we just pass it around at the back all game?

Needs to cut that out immediately. He means it properly though. Bruce didn’t have a clue what it meant, he just heard other people use it and thought it sounded good.

The Prophet Posted Thursday at 10:08 Share Posted Thursday at 10:08 He's got an interesting choice to make now. We're absolutely rock solid at the back, but in recent weeks we've been wasteful up top. The Joelinton-Willock partnership that looked so effective has been less fruitful and Wilson looks cooked. ASM and Isak changed the game on Tuesday, I'll be shocked if at least one of them isn't in from the start next week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted Thursday at 10:19 Share Posted Thursday at 10:19 Very true, we are due to give someone a hiding. I just think that having better decision makers and finishers in that area of the pitch can only help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine how many goals Maddison would have had if he'd been playing instead of Willock, with Longstaff tasked with holding back a bit to give Madders the freedom to roam and put those chances away.

SUPERTOON Posted Thursday at 10:21 Share Posted Thursday at 10:21 Have we really missed that many clear cut chances, Southampton cup game aside ? Genuine question as I missed most of the Fulham game and I didn’t think we created that much away at palace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonesJones Posted Thursday at 10:41 Share Posted Thursday at 10:41 (edited) Wouldn't be surprised if this is already in here somewhere, but a nice little tribute from Bournemouth. Love this bit with the player saying he's a legend and should be knighted, also the little glimpses of Wilson, Ritchie, Fraser, Tindall and some of the other coaching staff. Not often managers get this treatment when they leave a club. Edited Thursday at 10:41 by BonesJones Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
