Did u you see last season, Koeman is just settling the team down and how To defend as a team. Play will improve over time. Now it's about the points and don't care how we get it right now

So thats an excuse to see the ball as a hot potato?

Very easy on the eye, this game...

Saaby · December 10, 2016

We don't look comfortable on the ball at all.

We're playing like a pub team when we have the ball

Gareth Barry is an absolute joke

Good ball for the goal but if he could tackle or make a pass that actually goes to one of our players that would be great

Needs to do more. Work rate needs to be upped. Needs to track back, needs to create more.

His aggression is poor, not sure if he wants to be on the pitch right now or maybe he struggling to keep up with the pace of the game

Seem to have dropped back 10yards since the goal

That Behrami is one of the snidiest shoitehawks playing today.

Nymzee · December 10, 2016

Like watching Allardyce's Bolton this...

Why do we play so many long balls to a guy that looks like a target man but we all know is a terrible target man.

Still too much of a gap between mid and attack.

Barkley needs to do more here :coffee:

Amw79 · December 10, 2016

Has Barry took a touch at any point before just lumping it forward

Hmm, a hopeful ball that created a goal. Is this our style now, how has this very direct style worked for other teams? I mean essentially its the equivalent to a hail mary every play in American football.

It's unfortunate that Barry doesn't have the legs to run with the ball any more, tries to get rid of it first time every time, which puts us into trouble constantly. Great ball though.
