toontownman Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Ah well. We had it in our hands, we dropped the ball. No Europe will hamper our transfer recruitment I'd imagine. Still possible but hard to see us getting much out of midweek if we play like this. Very flat last home game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfcastle Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 People cant deal with results that go against them, even though its happened hundreds of times and will happen hundreds more times. Its sport. Every single time isn't cause for a brattish ungrateful drama. The club and team are doing well and trying really hard. Last home game last season was a 0-0 draw against a team nowhere near as good as Brighton. It happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donut Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Why are you all saying no Europe? It's still in our hands Up against Manure and Chelsea... not exactly the most stable teams either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Checko Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Frustrating and a bit of an underwhelming performance, particularly at home vs a Brighton team with loads of injuries. Thought a draw was a fair result overall. We were a bit sloppy at times and lots of bad final passes. They were ok - can see how they suck you in and then play it up to their strikers. They're clearly better at possessioning than we are. Was one of those games where our set up means we can't play the ball at all though the middle and so Isak basically never got a kick. In posession I though we looked a bit better with Joe on as he roams around a bit and drops deep and makes himself available compared to Longstaff, who's effective linking play in the final third but never shows any urgency to show for the ball in the middle third- though Joe was on against tiring players to be fair. Some positives - Hall did some nice passes and looked solid again. Thought Anderson did some good things. Big Jow back and generally looks ok. Krafth and Burn did well for a makeshift CB pairing who were up against a few counter attacks. Also going to disagree with Miggy being chod - his dive was frustrating but I thought he added a lot of impetus, I trust him to take the ball in tight spaces more than Murphy (who was having one of his old-skool Murphy days) and he was a fraction away from making a goal.

Barnes is weird, looks a world beater one week and then like he's got his boots on the wrong feet the next. Hopefully a symptom of the long term injury and he can find some consistency next year. As much as Miggy is a cult figure, I'd rather he was moved on. Infuriating player. That's exactly the main complaint that Leicester fans had about him. Highly inconsistent.

Away Toon Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 11 minutes ago, Amir_9 said: Agreed - Barnes has a big season ahead of himself next year. Some decent highlights with his handful of important goals in 1-2 games this year but on the overall much improvement needed next season and hopefully injury free. I think Barnes needs to start and play a lot and for reasons already discussed on here we bought him to play in the position we have by far the most options for. Gordon, both Joe's and Anderson for starters, Isak can also play there. Maybe coming on as a sub really doesn't suit him and like today shows he's a rhythm player.

Erikse Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I'm guessing @Kid Icarus might have looked at the live table, Chelsea have 1p from their current game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Thought our danger players came far too deep second half and stopped causing problems in behind. Very, very slow second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 (edited) Not only do Chelsea need to win today but also to better our result at least one more time in the last two. Edited May 11 by Heron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, he's also won us 6 points, basically single handedly coming on as a sub. He's a massive improvement on what we had still and more productive than Anderson. Completely different player to Joelinton though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 (edited) Get people being down after the game like but just need to try and maintain some rationale. All I've read on here and WhatsApp since the end of the game is Bruno is saying his goodbyes and we aren't getting Europe because we've fucked it Edited May 11 by Heron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially but there’s just not enough quality behind him or on the right to get the best out of his ability and today was an example of that. He must have been frustrated as hell.
