Billy Warthog Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 So that's the lesson that we all knew but the team still appears yet to learn... don't fuck about with the top teams! If you've got an advantage, use it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something they hadn’t managed when he was on the pitch . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the fuck did we just turn in to this passive piss team? I don't think we panicked. Quite the opposite. We got lulled into a self sense of security and left increasingly massive gaps in the middle. We got too nonchalant in CM and defensively and let Liverpool do what they do best. Passive is exactly right. We thought we were managing the game and did what Klopp wanted us to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novocastrian Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Howe and the players need to own this. Not seen much ‘intensity’ recently. Very poor, we struggle with too much possession as we don’t have the guile to unlock the defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man U needed goals and got them, we had loads of chances ands didn’t get them. That’s the only difference in then teams and us at the moment imo. however, all three results this season are all better than the same games last season so there is some evidence we’re moving in the right direction. Same four-goal margin against Villa, and we "lost by less" against Man City & Liverpool and that's better than last season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of the defensive approach, we did not execute in that regard or in finishing off the game with a man advantage. Definitely managerial f#ck up. And I love Howe by the way. He messed up big time and you know it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumbheed Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 We were just so passive with our build up play today. Alot of times where we found ourselves in good positions and turned back on ourselves. Alot to unpick today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 5 minutes ago, worthy said: Looking back, Almiron gets the chance to square it he has no pressure, and manages to just rocket it out. We need him out, he had so many chances yet nothing comes off it, and then always ALWAYS needing to turn cause he cant fucking use his other foot for anything, so it just slows down the whole. A lot of our best opportunities to either score or open up teams in these tougher matches, tend to come down to Almiron making a play, and we know how that ends up. Even when he plays well overall like he did today and against Man City. The key moments just don't come off for him. I really think we need to now consider him as more of a backup and option against lesser teams. Need to look at starting Barnes on the left and Gordon on the right going forward. I just thin the pair of them are more likely to have something come off if they are on the pitch together for longer periods, like Almiron is.

christ Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I don’t see it with Almiron. Sorry lads. Couple of good chances but we’re basically carrying him for the other 87 mins. If Trippier’s not pointing then he’s rarely making a run of any significance. People on here were waxing lyrical about him against Villa and during the first 45 mins I thought he was absolutely pish. That said he wasn’t the main problem today, but he’s the most obvious upgrade. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
