Worrying that ganas goal against the [Poor language removed] aside we haven’t looked like scoring since the wolves league game

 

[witchdoc187]

We lack quality in every position , even the basic stuff like receiving the ball ,controlling and passing ,it's so frustrating watching us lose possesion so easily every time a move looks promising because our players lack the basic skills

I don't think we do lack quality when we have our first X1 but we deffo lack in obvious areas which I'm sure will be addressed in future windows. Just takes time. But all this time enables the teams above us to get even stronger

Let’s list the many positives from that game then.

- Nobody got injured

Any more?

my pizza arrived on time

 

[Titus Shambles]

Interested to see if any journos have the bollocks to ask Moyes about his choices tonight.

"You must be disappointed to have lost the game?", "Any updates on injuries?", and "Are you hopeful of 3 points at the weekend?" is about the extent of sports "JoUrNaLiSm" these days.

 

[Lloydystark]

Crap and what made it worse I had ti sit in the home end surrounded by yam yams who wanted grealishs blood

 

[MikeyMike]

Yeah, I thought exactly that. I wondered if Moyes had told him we were unlikely to use him.

His head wasn’t in it. Some wild shots.

I thought he was just trying too hard to affect the result. Him and Grealish are two of the most fun signings we've made in years, but both of them like to beat at least four men before they let go of the ball. I'm not complaining, just it doesn't always come off.

 

[Titus Shambles]

Thrown away our best chance for a trophy

I’m begging the club to take this competition seriously

Wrexham will win it before we get near it.

 

[Titus Shambles]

"semper est annus proximus", apparently.

Not got the same feel to it as NSNO, but it could work.

And yet in my minds eye ear all I can hear is 50k fans in chanting unison: "you're all a bunch of arseh0les! you're all a bunch of arseh0les! you're all a bunch of arseh0les!"

 

[FinnT]

Wrexham v Anfield next round shoo-in. Reynolds be there be a wet dream for the media.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

More than 0? A win away at a side like those can add more than 3 points, shows you can turn up for big games.

Did the teams that had more than zero also out perform us in the league? All of the top 4 took games against us more seriously than all other teams in the league except for the top 4. They virtually always picked their strongest team and you can’t ignore the fact that in lots of those games we didn’t have our first choice 11 and our fringe players were weak. It’s a weird pointless thing to obsess over.

 

[Titus Shambles]

Another abject night and performance in the Milk Cup
Nothing ever changes
It's de ja Vue all over again and again
Im fed up

'de ja Vue' sounds like the Trinidadian striker we'll sign next summer for £50m who turns out to be Ali Dia's one-legged cousin.

Same. There was a guy in front of me with his boy who were clearly Blues too. But felt for our away fans travelling miles.

 

[Curtis]

For me I never really expected us to win the league cup but I felt we needed to beat a dismal Wolves team. I get sometimes things don't fall into place but this wolves team has had 3 goals so far this season of course 2 scored against us, we were so discombobulated throughout the game , was very disappointed.

 

[NewRadical]

Embarrassing.

All the talk of trying to win a trophy only to put out a very weakened side with such a timid attitude.

That's two games running we've started with a timid attitude, three games without a win and early season optimism has dwindled.

We are so one paced.

I don't believe we'll be in a relegation battle or look to replace the manager but I'm very disappointed in him. He plays not to lose rather than win.

 

[Titus Shambles]

If you are desperate for his name on the back of your shirt maybe opt for "Tim" then you'll have some money left over for a blue donut

Pretty sure there's 11+ blue donuts based on tonights performance, never mind someone paying money for a name on the back of shirt that looks like a cat coughing up a scrabble bag.
