Said it earlier Chico. The way we got at them you would have thought Bournemouth were the ones clinging on and down to 10 men.

I'm going to put my neck out and say I'm pleased with how the players responded with 10 men, they didn't shy away from the ball at least and a few seasons ago that game would of been well out of sight. I still see progress

I have no issues with the players, now McNeil isnt starting, cant see one of them not trying...now on the otherhand bringing Keane on to play up front after youve taking your winger off and left the other on the bench...thats a whole different story.

barry misses me chances

which would of changed the game

( fulham should of to us )

and then the 4 mins of madness

and i thought one goal should of

been chalked off

None of the Fulham were comparable to Barry’s howlers. This guy is really poor. Every striker is going to miss a few but they often make up with the goals they score. He doesn’t.

 

[brittcop1]

He could be here but but not being given the chance— Braiden Graham, no guarantees he’ll score but he certainly won’t waste the number of chances missed by quite a few near ever presents this season.

And that is part of the problem...we will never know under Moyes what exactly we do have. Is Dibling really that terrible? There were plenty of pundits talking him up in the summer....what do we have in Aznou? Rohl? Graham???

But ye strikers costing us points

 

[peteblue]

We bottled it and threw away a great chance for league positioning….

 

[Dario Terracotta]

And there go the RS out of our sights again

Defensively we gave away two absolute howlers. Centre halves galore and we still conceded two headed goals.
The heavy home defeats against Brentford, Newcastle and Spurs were down to rank bad defending. You could put Haaland up top for us and he wouldn’t score because the chances we create are limited in number and generally low on quality. The service to Barry has been so poor that he snatches at chances when one eventually presents itself.

but still goals win games

it’s when we go behind we usually look clueless. decent full backs players
in correct positions and a striker

up grades us

True. Goals do win games, so conceding them very easily means the opposition win games.
I read somewhere that Tarkowski wasn’t happy with Barry’s misses last night. Christ on a bike has he reviewed his own performances this season! I like Tarkowski but he’s been bang average this season.

Unfortunately the manager doesn’t and won’t.
Tarkowski and Branthwaite are his preferred two, with Keane a very close third. Don’t think he rates Jake at centre half.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

24 hours doesn't make a difference, does it.

"Cooled off" in a vat of lava; let's go.

 

[Marc bolan]

Why do we keep throwing the ball to them while when they had a throw in
It went straight to one of there unmarked player this has been going
On for years really gets up my nose

Very true and the same with corners— no variation whatsoever— just the long ball but close to the opposition ‘keeper— adding to the complete lack of movement and the very poor passing long and short. An honest question— How much time is given to tactics at Finch Farm if any ?

Well he is not a full back that is for sure.
