Kanj Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 We’re missing the intent to pass the ball. This is a classic “keep it tight” and nick a point or goal type setup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmesy Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 We were always going to park the bus against Chelsea and it’s the right tactic given where we are, but leaving Almiron on the bench means we have limited pace on the counter. That means we’re parking the bus with no desire to win the game, which Rafa wouldn’t do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manquillo is often doubled up alot of the time. Almiron and willock are needed. Think we will get both but will also likely get shelvey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We play all our best players and what, take the lead in the first 20 mins? and that's game over, is it? They'd hammer us 7-1. If we can improve on last game, and keep these goalless until the 65th minute, who knows? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Breeze Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 After 40 minutes, Chelsea haven’t had a single chance. No idea how anyone can criticise this so far. A little better execution in the attacking moves and we’ve got every chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Toon Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Just caught up with the whining about the team picked in the other thread. Maybe seeing the way they train influences who Jones picks or is that a concept too far for most people? We have a shit squad that has been badly coached under Bruce and Jones is doing the only thing he can which is make us difficult to beat while conceding possession. Rafa who most people want back here did exactly the same. Anybody thinking we are suddenly going to become some coherent attacking possession based team with the players we have especially in midfield knows fuck all about football.
