Can't miss that many chances

 

[formerly manx toffee]

Good half Blues but we may rue not scoring

 

[LucBesson]

A better team with him with what we have? Yes. But does he make us a good team? No.

He's the sort of player that, if we had ourselves together, would quickly become a problem. Sort of striker that *might* get double figures, but will never, ever get anywhere near 20.

Thank goodness<DCL missed that chance and not Beto given the grief he already gets on here.

 

[Chegsy]

Gana and Doucourre have been absolutely diabolical on the ball, simple passes aren’t even getting close to their targets. Gana’s tackling has been way off the pace as well. What a difference Onana and Garner make in that area.

It’s an ugly partnership. When is Onana back? Hopefully Garner makes the Chelsea game.

 

[Runub]

It’s a tad frustrating that we can’t put the ball in the net

 

[alwaysblue]

Oh my word my ears are bleeding Jim F'in Beglin. Last straw was Pickford kicking out.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Good performance

More very bad finishing. Someone has to take responsibility to put it in the net.

You get punished second half for being that wasteful

 

[Eggs]

….same old as far as converting chances is concerned but generally doing ok. They have more quality in the top third and we’ll need to ride our luck but its a winnable game, especially if we get the first goal.

Gueye on a booking a concern, him and Doucoure are poor in possession. Just get a daft goal ffs.

 

[Tony1985]

As usual should be ahead, hopefully doesn’t hurt us later on.

 

[lieneverton]

I've never known a team who can miss so many chances at home game after game after game.

Replica of 4 or 5 other games this year. Infuriating doesn't come close and we know how it likely ends.

 

[the golden visionary]

Coulda shoulda woulda half

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Really strong half.

Shame we have no composure in the final third.

 

[gonetomorrow]

I'd stick DCL on the left for a spell. He seems to have the beating of Trippier.

 

[blindbert]

Can't hit a barn door can he
