Might be too far adrift otherwise by January. Can see 3 points max out of those games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortoon Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Seriously what is the point of playing Krafth as part of 3 centrebacks. He has the physique of a full-back so he gets bullied, and he is terrible on the ball. This game as every game was crying out for Schar to bring out the ball with some composure, and if you're not going with him you have to put fede in there who won't get absolutely bullied by the 2 big strikers. We need 2 new midfielders in January, they are just traffic cones, especially Longstaff. Ref was also absolutely shite, we got lucky the VAR team wasnt on a coffee break when they scored the 2nd. But we need our players to also highlight shit to the ref. Milivojevic should have been sent off twice, yet our players dont react and point this out to the referee at all. When Lascelles took a yellow the whole palace team was crying out, and got a cheap-ish yellow for someone on our team right after. Still would have taken a point before the game, but thats because we are terrible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Baby steps I guess. That arsehole totally, totally fucked us so we're never gonna just flick a switch and all of a sudden be not terrible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 It's stopped the rot but we need to show more fight. Clark should not be anywhere near the 1st 11 - is Schar injured? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Some positives: - Looked far more organised defensively - Subs were probably about right and at right time - The game ended Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) Clarke and Richie were both horrific. Krafth was alright. So many times when a player could take a touch or make pass they just swing a leg and send the ball anywhere. Countless small errors like that. Big changes needed very fast.

maze Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 With the right manager we should do better. However, we have regressed enormously since Benitez left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

christ Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 We’re not going to suddenly become a decent side overnight. We’re lacking confidence, fitness and tactical discipline. When Rafa followed McClaren it took a good month before we looked anything other than complete shit, and we haven’t even appointed the new guy yet. It’s imperative in the short term we don’t get cut adrift. In that context today is ok. We’re going to have to scrape points while we can for a while.

SUPERTOON Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 It’s a massive point and should mean changes to the team are made next week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happinesstan Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 All said and done, we have a pretty poor set of players to choose from, and every point will be hard earned between now and January. No doubt in my mind that Bruce would have lost this by 2 or 3 goals, so I'm happy with Jones' contribution. I think he had a gameplan that could have won it, and that's more than we've seen recently.

We can't just shake off 2 years of lard sarnies + heads and volleys. It wasn't going to be changed overnight. A point away from home, considering the drama over the last week or so, is a good result.

xLiaaamx Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Why does nothing that should give us a bounce actually do? Ashley goes, flat after 10 minutes. Bruce goes, flat. Equalise with 20 minutes to go, still absolutely no reaction or momentum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
