Don't really understand sticking with 3 CBs when it includes a championship right back in there and we actually don't have any proper wing backs. Absolutely hate this system with these players - just amplifies all our biggest weaknesses. Today yes, not against Brentford. This is why I wanted Jones gone, we needed a proper clean break.

The Prophet Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 First 30-40 minutes we played well. They took control just before half time and pissed it really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a forward thinking player who has no bravery so pairing him with Shelvey at this level is just poor selection. hopefully Howe learns from this as doesn’t try it again against a side which is much beater than we are and love to overload The Central midfield. Aye it's him, joelinton or almiron behind Wilson. Hayden has to be alongside shelvey who wasn't bad tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 We need to start playing players in their positions. No more Fraser, Ritchie and Murphy in fullback roles. Is Dummett fit? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragging Howe into it earlier on though? Howay He's been locked in his hotel room all week and we're playing a fairly competent side with an infinitely better squad than ours. We are shite, and that's not in doubt. Can we be less shite than Norwich on Tuesday? That's all that matters at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza ladra Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) Positives: Dubravka Schar No card for Wilson No Lascelles or Ritchie on Tuesday Edited November 27, 2021 by gazza ladra Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I expected us to lose so not overly concerned even if we were poor We must get 6 points from the next 2 games, worst case scenario needs to be 4 points Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 That was wank, that was pretty much straight from a Bruce style performance, I don't get why the players where so static, it has to be a mentality thing with the players. We where pretty class last week in attack, and today we didnt look like we could string 2 passes together. Feels like a hangover from the Ashley era. Given he's been in a hotel all week, happy to give how the benefit of the doubt, but that was a tough watch. Think it just boils down the the players in defense and central midfield just not being good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Pathetic performance in that 2nd half. Dubravka only player that look good. Howe needs to learn from his mistakes quickly and who is shit and how they can play. Shelvey and Willock for example, two games in a row is insane, no protection for the defence at all, especially when our fullbacks/ wingbacks are shit.

The man has an impossible task and this isn’t his fault, but I won’t abide by this kind of absolute diabolical performance no matter who it’s under.

54 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Also we could/ should have had 3 penalties, that ref was fucking atrocious, he gave everything he could to them, and nothing to us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I'm pretty certain we played 4-4-2 in the first half, like. We then switched to 343 when Murphy and Almiron came on. Hindsight is a wonderful thing but feels like we should've been from the off at a team rocked last week. Thought the subs were too delayed as well when it was obvious things hadn't changed 10 mins past half time. Didn't expect anything from this one really so hasn't changed my mind much.

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Started two wing backs who can't defend, started a CM passenger in Willock, those are my biggest annoyances. Ultimately though we were always losing this but I expected us to get after them a bit more, this is a replica of what would have happened under Bruce really. Early days, and things will likely improve but I fear its too late, Norwich game is absolutely massive and I can see us falling short again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
