Stifler Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Just now, Ed Vinegar said: 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. All the goals were shocking. The first we shouldn’t be conceding at all.

Yorkie Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I don't think there's any need to go overboard on the criticism, mind. We did wrestle control of the second half for long enough, without ever being pretty. But 45-60 and 85-90 was absolutely rubbish. They did just enough and some of them were excellent for 90. Many were only excellent for 45. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingArthur Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Seriously, what is Wilson doing at the end there? Huge 3 points close, so take it to the corner flag ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Broon Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 6 minutes ago, KaKa said: Bruno is a terrible captain. Has been terrible this whole half. Completely exasperated this whole mess with his antics and stupid dwelling on the ball. Sick of him just looking to draw free kicks in unthreatening areas every time he gets the ball. It just breaks up our play and puts us in danger when he doesn't get them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 1 minute ago, Nucasol said: We beat the Scabs, stop bedwetting, have a beer and enjoy the 3 points. There’s some proper glass half empty fuckers in our support. I recognize this is 100% the right take, but still I can't help not feeling it right now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmesy Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Attempting to sit back, conceding 2 goals that realistically could have been 4 and clinging on for the points from a comfortable position is not good for confidence. Winning 4-1, 5-1, 6-1 would have done wonders and sent a message to the rest of the league. Wasted opportunity. Whether it was management or the players who decided to sit back and take it easy, it needs to not happen again. Happy for the 3 points obviously but that was fucking shit!

SUPERTOON Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Can only think we Howe instructed them to preserve energy second half, only issue with that is we are absolutely shocking at keeping the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 6 minutes ago, Yorkie said: Good God that was an absolutely horrible watch. Obviously delighted to win but rage lingers when it comes. Honestly can't remember the last time I screamed that loudly when Wilson didn't pass it at the end there. Second loudest was when Tino didn't release it that time when he dribbled in field. Ludicrous team this season. I am happy, angry and frustrated in equal measures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Mental game, we blow hot and cold far too much. I just hope we’re hot for the cup final and hot enough to get us top 5. We just give the ball away far too easily, loose passes inviting pressure on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 It seems the plan was to kill the game second half, but we ended up becoming too passive and nearly paid for it with some sloppy box defending. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 1 minute ago, SUPERTOON said: Botman can’t come back quick enough. Schar is awful. This guy is one of the biggest culprits when things are going well. Just stops making an effort and starts getting too playful with his passing. Schar, Bruno, Willock and Isak are very lackadaisical when we are on top. It is so terrible man. Team cannot be trusted to see a game out comfortably. This is an awful trait to have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a good win against a team we're trying to chase, along with other results, this has been a really positive weekend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
