Love how Maxi is passing the ball a lot more. 


Feel like he’s passing too often, takes some edge off his dribbling. :lol: Good half from him in any case.

imo this is the kind of game where bruce's lack of tactical nous would really shine through and we'd just turn up the shithousery against the other team for a janky 1-0 win. might be beyond howe to figure out how to out-suck the opposition tbh.

Wilson’s not had a lot of the ball in to his feet, where he’s most dangerous. Forest has done well to handle crosses into the box.

We have to score a couple to demoralise them. Bit worried about Awoniyi coming on and pulling something out of the bag.

 

Man, can't help but think Lascelles would have scored form one of those corners too.

The worry is they hang on for another 20 minutes then bring 5 fresh players off the bench and it ends up 0-0. Or worse. 

Was thinking this. They looked knackered every time they finally got the ball back and our pressing was relentless. But yeah this 5 sub rule is gonna be annoying as they could just throw on 5 fresh legs and park the bus later.

Completely dominant. 

 

Bruno is just a joy to watch. His passing is erotic. But it's so clear the club's dilemma - Almiron is making great runs and has a good understanding with Bruno but he's just not good enough at this level to make the final ball count. We will be fine playing him but we would improve massively with a better option there. How ambitious are we this season?

 

If we get that first goal, we'll score 2 more. Just have to find a way to get the first one.

We need Burn and Schar on the ball more, higher up the pitch, in order to break down a static back-7. When you've got Bruno/Joelinton on the ball with Almiron and ASM wide, you just cannot go through the middle. But patient play from the back allows our midfielders to move and drag players out of positions more easily.

What the fuck was that pizza


If you can’t make your mind up, just get three on top of each other
