Ronaldo Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 1 minute ago, Zero said: then at least play like a veteran player who knows what’s the best for the team instead of just being selfish he could run to the corner flag for long He’s about the most selfish player we’ve ever had. I don’t expect any different from him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 3 minutes ago, Vaj said: Three points is all that matters but fuck me, that second half was awful! Actually the way this season is going goal difference is going to be massive. Instead of emphasizing that and staying aggressive, we almost threw the game away with a passive pathetic second half. And once again our goal difference suffers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 That game was like a microcosm of our season, when we're on it we're really good, like the first half, and when we're off it, we look really poor. Either way, we did enough over the game to win it, even if that second half was really jarring, and it was a really important win that gets us back in the Champions League places.

Conjo Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 2 minutes ago, High Five o said: 3 points, good. Second half have made me question what the fuck we are doing. This could have been a morale booster and build some momentum. Now I just feel deflated. Been a couple of times this season where we've been playing well, leading fairly comfortably and we seem to, by instruction, to give the entire initiative over to the opposition team and rely on our defensive structure. I really don't get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OoOGazOoO Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 3 minutes ago, Ronaldo said: He’s 33 in a few days, legs are clearly going and was never that great outside the box at his best. Not like we were bringing Drogba on. True but he is a premier league striker, I'd be able to hold the ball up and play with my head up for 8 mins when backs against the wall Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

et tu brute Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Questions have got to be asked about that second half. Why the fuck are we playing deep when we're 4 - 1 up is just nonsensical Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 (edited) A wins a win but fucking hell that doesn’t feel like a win Whoever in the dressing room thought it’d be fun to pass the glue bag round at 1/2 time needs docking a weeks wages Edited February 23 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilovetoon8788 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 There better be some explanation on that 2nd half. It was seriously so so pathetic and cowardly again. Like it was against city. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 This summer has to be about sorting centre halves and few technical players further up. Need to be able to control games more, some of it is in how we deliberately try to play but need a different style sometimes to control games.

Gallowgate Toon Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Very important win but it's been increasingly evident this season that there's a mentality issue in the side. We aren't good enough technically to see games out at half pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Vinegar Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 The goals we conceded in the second half were pure shite. Just lazy, reckless defending. The third in particular was minging. If we're going to sit back we can't do that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Bet that was a good game for the neutral. I’m aware there’s bigger problems than this off the back of that second half performance but I’m not sure Pope deserves to keep that spot. I’m not a Dubravka fan either but his kicking is awful and for a shot stopper that first goal was as bad as anything Dubravka didn’t get to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowhere Man Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Kudos to Forest but that was an appalling second half display. If Tonali hadn’t come on we would have lost that game, missing big Joe’s shithousery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
