Erikse Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) Joe Willock at 1.86 is taller than every player in Bournemouths lineup that beat Arsenal (expect their goalkeeper). Then we also had Osula and Lewis Miley who are both around 1.90, both CBs being well above, and with most players being over 1.80. Really, I don't see it. Arsenal has scored 1 goal from corner in their last 9 before this one, mostly playing teams that has less height and strength than what we would even with Hall over Burn.

Agreed, my concern before the game was that our lineup was entirely geared around nullifying an Arsenal team that have been blunt recently anyway. Putting Burn, Willock and Ramsey down the left just immediately set our stall out to try to not concede, which obviously we immediately did anyway and couldn't recover. They held us at arms length all game because we had basically no attacking outlets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Misery Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Starting Burn could be argued as making sense. Not bringing Hall on when we went 1-0 down does not make sense. Watching Dan lumbering up the left trying to offer an offensive option was... frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The version I heard was that it was the Bournemouth game and he said to Eddie "how come you don't make half time subs you little cunt, look at Farke at Leeds in the cup next week for a prime example of how to be proactive", Eddie stood up from massaging Dan Burn's feet and was absolutely stotting, beetroot red, "I do make half time subs Lewis, let me show you how it's done", followed by maniacal evil laughter. KI was in the corner clapping him and laughing too with his Eddie Howe jarmies on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Pinkman Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Hopefully the rumours aren’t true that Hall has fell out with Howe. If we lose Livramento, Gordon, Hall and Tonali in the summer we are in big trouble under Howe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbo2 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 He's been our best attacking outlet and probably our best defender all year despite being injured and working his way back to fitness once or twice. I'd say he's well within his rights to have a moan about some of the dross he has to share a field with Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobsonsWonderland Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 As he was in trouble, Howe wanted Burns leadership qualities on the pitch. Understandable as his job is literally on the line. Dropping Hall was the easier option than changing the two CBs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
