[Half Time Bovril]

And I fu^*%}ng hate Philip Schofield

 

[firefighterblue]

So why don’t the RS look the same ?......

Cos they can all pass and move

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Cack that.

 

[PhilM]

Gomes plays like a 50 year old ex pro in a testimonial. And he’s comfortably our best midfielder.
Desperate for a midfielder who can run forward with the ball.

Our midfield is far too slow, one-dimensional and lacking any real bite or quality.

 

[Seathestars]

Richy left and Kean on. We need an injection of pace, or Bernard to keep the ball.

 

[Walken]

Gordon isn't up to this, Bernard on now

 

[Eggs]

...I think Ancelotti has set the team up ok, making it difficult for them so far.

I just wish we’d get the ball forward quicker. We have two willing, competitive and effective runners up top so play it in the channels, relieve the pressure and get up their end of the pitch.

 

[Johnniepk]

Half time. Just been the loo. Straight in! No elbows, no dodgy splashes from anyone and no ciggie smell.

 

[bluelegend]

Our midfield is ineffective. All the transfer budget should be thrown at it.

 

[maccavennie]

Way worse than I expected...and I was expecting it to be bad

I am not even going to watch the second half.

Cos I'm effing all over the shop the missus said "don't bloody watch it", I said "nah I've missed saying how utterly crap we are" lol

I'm getting 3 months worth of booos right out here K lol

Desperate for a midfielder who can run forward with the ball.

He’s no interest in putting a decent tackle in or pressuring the player in possession either. Hate to say it but he’s a bit of a liability.

0-0 at half time first game back - id take that at the final whistle. All very surreal.

 

[sageyefc]

One of the worst halves of football you’ll ever see that. Probably the least stressful half of a derby I’ve ever seen though

richy head and shoulders above any other player we’ve got out there

 

[LostLegend]

As expected a tepid friendly with no passion or urgency from either side.

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Cant complain really lids.
We blues have got to face the facts that we wont get stuck in v this lot.
We cant press ,and we certainly cant play from the back.
