The team has a million miles to go in terms of mentality and quality

ffs we conceded
an injury time free header

quality yes

I was watching with a Bayern Munich was who obviously was unaware of the favouritism to them by the officials. He started tallying up all the times things went in their favour and genuinely started laughing when he saw 11 minutes added on. I told him this is all normal.

 

[Street end man]

At the end of the day we had the chance to be in sixth place now and favourites for Europe....with a fighting chance of CL football.
We end the day 10th.
This game needed the kitchen sink chucking at it....it needed our lads in the refs face as much as there's were.
It needed all subs using in the last 30 to give us legs.
None of this happened.
Gutted i support these.

£113mil + Grealish & Rohl

£70mil plus on Barry and Dibling was poor business and looking back a waste of money. £8m for Aznou looks like more waste of money.
Grealish was a good loan but a lot of money for a loan. Rohl doesn’t look good enough.

Regarding the origin of the post, just don’t think he had other option than Barry to put on. People can say N’diaye or George up there but our most threat came from left wing position.

he's 29 years old.

Someone else pointed that out.

 

[Fonzy]

Calling it now, we will go years and years before we beat them at this new ground.

Will if Davie Boy stays

but concending a free header

isn’t the manager

was chaos then coming out the ground glasses getting lashed

You do this every time, you’ll ignore the macro issues and focus in on ‘oh it wasn’t the manager who defended the corner’ ‘oh it wasn’t the manager who missed a chance’

Like it means anything. It’s not his job to defend the corner. It’s his job to make sure we have a functioning team on the pitch. And he failed today, our best defender was risked and is now likely injured for a while and our midfield was exhausted for the last 15.

But sure, he wasn’t marking Van Dijk personally so the manager is at no fault at all.

 

[Taifi gorm]

Braiden Graham offers 10 times more of a goal threat than Barry. When managers and coaching staff can’t see that, there is something seriously wrong. What are Moyes et al doing persisting with barry, trying to prove he was worth the money? By playing him they are making themselves look increasingly clueless.

Anyone would offer more.
Schneiderlin was embarrassed by Barrys effort.

Even if we had the quality players, it wouldn't make any difference if we were scared to go out and play against the better sides.

Other teams managers sign young players and develop them.

None of them improve under this manager.

 

[matty1878]

Did you think we made proactive subs?

Did we put a crap team totally lacking confidence under pressure?

Did we make a rookie keeper make a save ?

we played well and they did to

a draw would of been fair

beto went off for barry

and then that says it all

mate how is losing an injury time goal

scared to go at better sides?

 

[svenboss]

Same old story, getting bored of this now

 

[Joey66]

We are so scared of the ball we just hoof it up all game hoping for an awkward bounce or we get the second ball

It’s Tony pulis tactics that we play against these

Most teams also our kick off sums us up - an up & under - Ruby union style.....

 

[brittcop1]

Did he have a choice Beto looked like he had concussion?

He had no choices if he cant think beyond " like for like".. bit of creativity might not go amiss?
