Barnes, Miggy, Tonali, all literally invisible.

Bruno running backwards, slowly.
Schar and Burn, like OAP's.

 

Zero shape, zero idea. Widest midfield in world football.

Tonali is playing well

[Yorkie]

We look absolutely ragged this half, like, no denying it. Playing like strangers, every pass just hit and hope.

Really?

[Dandy Man]

Think we can definitely create a chance or two but also think we can definitely concede a few more too

What a cross that was.

The only problem was the guy making it not being on the end of it. 

[Novocastrian]

Couple of minutes until the subs lads….

Is he? Can’t think of anything he’s done well.

[Mike]

I'm gonna be so mad when Isak goes to Liverpool.

[SiLvOR]

We're making basic things like passing to a team mate look incredibly difficult

[Smal]

when’s Trippier back?

It’s OK there will be tactical subs shortly and fresh legs to shake things up!

[Holloway]

Tonali miles off it, get Miley on

[Geordie Ahmed]

We keep giving the ball away so cheaply, barely any pressure and it's just a poor pass

Yeah for Italy...

[LiquidAK]

Frustrating as fuck to concede such a soft as fuck goal out of 2 glaring individual errors, put us straight onto the back foot and we're struggling to break out of that pattern

A poorly coached side is what I see. 
 

Want Howe to succeed and stay long term, but he’s not helping his cause by being a stubborn wanker. 

[Keggy_Keagal]

To be fair Guehi's pace would in theory allow the defence to be higher and can only figure the plan longer term was for him and Botman to be the starting pair for next season . 

[KennyUtd]

How/why is Almiron still on this pitch. An absolute waste of a shirt.  Surely Willock or even Murphy offers loads more. 

[LiquidAK]

Hall looks quite lively at least

Problem is that was the only fucking plan.

[Geordie Ahmed]

What on earth was Bruno thinking with that pass? We were in a good position, daft pass and we are then on the back foot

[Joe1984]

60 mins. Here we go...

Is it stubbornness or lack of tactical awareness and ability to change it on the pitch?

Why was he given a new contract following a purple patch?

Don't know why Howe has never tried Willock there.
