Memphis Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Entertaining game, not a great quality game. Trippier has been off of late and that's really hurting us. Needs a rest. Burn vs Neto was like watching me against Usain Bolt. All in all, not a bad point but there are some concerning signs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand About 120 million quid from the summer transfer window that are non-factors for this team (160 million quid if you count Barnes, but I'm assuming he'll at least feature as a sub in the new year) It's harsh and hindsight is 20/20, but the summer window was a shocker from Eddie, especially when we needed to stretch everything we had to expend under FFP for quality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to agree with the comments on the lack of substitutions. The summer signings are looking like really poor decisions at the moment, if we aren't utilising them when we're this threadbare. Expand A point at Wolves is fine, but dropping points like this will make getting into the top 4 more difficult with Spurs, Man City, Liverpool, and Arsenal.

oldtype Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 We are preposterously injured and while that’s somehow not affecting the quality of the first team, it is beginning to affect their stamina. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Joelinton looks like he's energy zapped, also wish Bruno would stop going down looking for a decision so often, think refs are wise to him now. We looked out of ideas as the game went on, and we were fortunate Neto had to go off, feel Burn was losing that battle. Still can't get my head round Eddie not using Livramento or Hall who can play other positions to allow the regular starters a chance to recover, several looked burnt out, he could play Livramento down the wing and helped Gordon, equally Targett for Burn, or Hall for Burn, or Hall could have covered in the middle for Joelinton perhaps. Just find it unusual he'd allow the lads to get leggy, and knackered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 The Liverpool game was a bit of a freak, but we've looked noticeably fatigued away to West Ham and Wolves, directly after European games. Our decision making and press gradually deteriorated in both, plus while big Jam has done well, he's not Botman. It felt like it was inevitable and something we'll learn to manage with experience and quality additions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Managers just don’t make defensive substitutions unless they absolutely have too.

I know he’s going to be starting from midweek but he really should have come on for Trippier today. Agree on Hall insofar as he got decent minutes for Chelsea. If he can’t come on for Burn late in matches then it doesn’t make a lot of sense. I know how much Howe likes people to settle before they start playing but our starting 11 has been dying in recent games after 70 mins Expand Easy to say , but honestly think if he made that change and they had won the game it would be an awful decision It sort of makes sense - Trippier wasn’t bad at the end though I would trust Howe 1000% before starting to make armchair decisions on 21 year olds coming on and changing much like Hall is no where near burns level, he’s not quite ready If schar was playing poorly would you drag him off ? changing a defence is a tougher decision than what your thinking especially when the game is ebbing and flowing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
