worthy Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 If we play like this against a genuine side we will get smashed again like. Good to be through but I can’t wait to see the mentality back to last years flying high level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe that after two months of blatantly obvious evidence, that a totally ineffective midfield containing Miley and Longstaff is still being selected. The press has disappeared and the standard of defending is abysmal. Performances are unacceptable and I see no sign of that changing, if anything they're getting worse. Howe needs to get it sorted otherwise I can see him being gone in the Summer. Yeah what could possibly be causing Howe to select the same midfield every game.

That was seriously bad though, can't see a pattern of play other than ponderous passing, running down bling alleys or chasing over egged balls over the top.

Through in the cup though so Longstaff and Willock look like they are going to take a while to get back up to speed and the form of last year, which is seriously bad news.

You know, ‘better than Steve Bruce’ isn’t exactly a mark of quality. And Ashley’s running of NUFC was a shambles, not a benchmark. Those of us who supported the club in the ‘80s and ‘90s didn’t spend half our days wanking on about ‘remember how shit 90-91 was’ everytime KK’s side had a bad run and drew some criticism. Howe deservedly got plenty of credit in the previous year and a half. What’s being put on at the moment isn’t acceptable.

nufcjmc Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Also not sure I haven't been paying attention but why do we try and head the ball do much in the middle of the park? Can no one control the ball good enough to bring it down to their feet. It always seems to land back to the opposition or go no where. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had ten men in our box all game and Joelinton 50 yards up the pitch. We couldn't even get up the pitch most games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
