Novocastrian Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Really poor, passing sloppy. The formulaic passing patterns, especially down the right between Tripps and Miggy are being disrupted too easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Just now, David Edgar said: All this negativity and they're only level cos of poor marking on a set piece. Not like they're tearing us apart. True it's basically 0-0, just painful to watch in forward areas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Trippier didn't cover himself in glory for the equaliser. Poor from someone of his quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Slightly annoying, we've been needlessly sloppy at times, but we can push on 2nd half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 The squad doesn't have another player to play that deepest role without Bruno. We knew that and it's hurting us as the midfield is all players with energy who want to drive forward. It's allowed West Ham and Rice in particylar to exercise control on the game.

1964 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 We look jaded in the midfield, their midfield are running this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 We've missed the high tempo pressing which Willock and Joelinton pruduce down the left. I think Maxi might be brought off early in the second half unless he pulls his finger out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintdempsey Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Given how blatantly we’re missing Bruno it does seem a bit weird that we didn’t secure another midfielder in January it has to be said. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Great start, faded as the half went on. Rice is class, absolutely dominant for them. Team looks a bit tired which is a worry - hopefully an Eddie masterclass team-talk can spark some life Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 In a way, I'm glad that clean sheet record and 1st half clean sheet stuff is done now. So we can atleast defend naturally. But we are so poor trying to move forward. Tired legs and minds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Flat game and a flat performance so far. We've had plenty of the ball but not don't much with it. West Ham have been the more dangerous without creating loads themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 The red to Bruno is only highlighting how important he is to us and the lack of quality in CM we have and chose not to address last month. It's not awful and it's just about coping with West Ham but we look half the team without him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 They've had 8 shots to 2. No doubt they've had the better of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Not the greatest of halves that, we need to up our game in the second half. ASM has been our worst player to be honest, he needs to up his game massively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 A bit flat for a lot of that half. Looks like we are struggling to get to grips with their formation. 1-0 should have been perfect for us. As they had to push on. But we didn’t really look threatening on the counter. Been a bit better since the goal and they have also reverted back to sitting in. Midfield looks a bit weak at times. Willock is allergic to headers.

SAK Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Team needed freshening up window just gone, aside from Bruno G the rest aren’t brilliant passers. I can’t believe on loan with a significant loan fee there wasn’t a midfielder sat on some CL clubs bench that wouldn’t have joined us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiston Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Team needs to wake up, midfield was awful and West Ham dominated them. ASM has offered nothing at all, expected better with him getting a starting chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 To slow to get the ball out to maxi. It's like walking football at times so many poor passes from schar burn Willock Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
