Thought his effort today was disgusting. He crows on how much he loves playing for the fans, then fucking at least give the effort for those fans. Everyone has poor games, but today he looked like he didn't give a shit.

 

 

 

 

I didn't watch the game so can't really comment on his effort today, but his ability to beat a man at will is something of a double edged sword. It can open up teams from nothing which is great when it comes off, or he can end up running into trouble and losing possession needlessly when he holds it too long. He's actually been pretty good at releasing it in a lot of games so he's a rare talent, but at the same time, he still needs to be a bit more intelligent if he wants to become the best version of himself. He also needs to turn up to training on time.

Didn't see the game - was there any signs of improvement or nah?

 

None. We conceded possession and so many clear cut chances. There was no attacking intent and we were simply set up to play the counter attack which didn’t work from minute one. The positive is that at least Jones has identified that we are so bad on the ball and wants to work on that

Nah. Usual bad. Negative lineup, very much bruce style. We had a Lucky goal from corner and benteke looked like a class player.

Christ :lol:

 

Nothing changes overnight obviously but I thought with the stench of Bruce lifted from the team some of the players might crack on but apparently not.

 

At least we've only got Chelsea next :crazy2:

I thought that ASM might be one of the casualties of the new regime. Up to him of course, he has the talent to be a key part of the new team. 


If he’s going to act up and be lazy, he’s not for us going forward.

Think he might be tired, bruce didnt spare him. Also think its time he didnt have that free role anymore. Play him as a Winger, and make him work for it.

Crystal Palace their ultras their drum and their shit wannabe European  songs. Struggle to find anything as cringeworth6 in the rest of English football put together tbh

One of the few home crowds that generate a bit of atmosphere and support for their team.

 

Sure youe not just pissed off cos they had a go at us.

Nope. Said it about palace before the takeover. That "ultra" section is the most cringeworthy wannabe shit I've ever seen. They barely bring over 1000 up here as well. Proper tinpot

I've no problem with Palace fans (Jordan and Parish, now that's a different matter) and they make for a good atmosphere and back their club well. Seems a bit churlish to have a go.

Just doesn't work for me. A small English fan base trying to act all European. Laughable really. If newcastle had a load of bellends with a drum wearing black coats and wearing sunglasses under floodlights stood in the gallowgate I'd be saying the same thing. It's artificial as fuck

Well it might just be one of those games, he's had quiet games before. 

 

He's often most quiet against teams who worry about him enough to mark him tightly and close him down quickly. 

 

In theory, the team should be able to use this to their advantage by giving the ball to someone else as an outlet if he could use that marking to drag defenders around and create space for others.  I'm not sure that Fraser is that outlet though, he was appalling today.
