alexf Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I mean that's probably everything Eddie wants from ASM summed up in that goal. Work hard off the ball to keep the ball in possession, make a forward run, head up, make incisive pass. Sloppy as fuck first half from all and hopefully not a bad injury for Willock. Would hope they come out 2nd half with abit more quality and sharpness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pubteam Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Don't worry, Bruno will be on fire after 3 games rest. Our press doesn't seem to work without him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost every single touch has been a give away. I don’t think ive seen him move the ball or even complete more than 1 pass in the entire first half. He’s obsessed with dribbling and taking on defenders. He completely plays with his head down. I think he was perfect for us when we sat back and parked the bus for 90 mins. He would earn fouls and help us move up the pitch. In this current system he is having a really hard time adjusting. I hope he has a better second half Bit of a dumb post considering the part he played in our equaliser Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The system change has helped, their goal was a kick up the arse. We've still only lost one game, sit 4th and are having a dip in form that we all had to expected at some point, but ffs lets not go mental with the negativity. Nee wonder SJP is full of miserable ungrateful fuckers these days. Least the lads on the pitch have some fucking back bone.

nemtizz Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 (edited) It was obvious we’d miss Bruno but honestly didn’t think it would affect us this much at both ends of the pitch. Edited February 11, 2023 by nemtizz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinky Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 3 minutes ago, Wilson said: And that contribution led to an equaliser, exactly what he's capable of but people tend to forget he can be a game changer. Done very well there, from diving to keep it in play to the final ball. Thats why Bournemouth have set 3 or 4 players on him whenever he's had a sniff.

LiquidAK Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Really poor half, but the change in formation since Gordon came on had us looking a lot brighter. It's there for us to go on and win it, the momentum will have swung our way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are soooo focused on the trippier Almiron connection and teams basically shift over to that side. I do think Isak and Gordon will help fix that because Isak comes deeper to get the ball and Gordon does a good job of switching play Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmesy Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 We’ve assembled the tallest but most aerially impotent team of players I’ve seen in a while. All of that play down the wing for Trippier to put decent balls into no one. Coupled with absolutely zero threat from corners. I’d love to see the stats on our crosses to goals ratio. It must be one of the worst in the league. It’s my only criticism of us under Eddie tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was working before the world cup but teams were always going to work out how to stop Almiron running in behind them, like. Need to use the left side more. Hopefully Gordon can get out to support ASM more like he did for the goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 We really needed the goal. The momentum should be back with us now. Gordon has energised the performance completely. He's got a very good football brain - always seems to know what to do and does it quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Given how dawdling we've been on the ball, it's good to have Gordon on already, who looks to move it as fast as Bruno does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
