Rom had little or no service today.....I thought he should have done better with the one clear chance he got, when Ross played him in.

I felt sorry for him when he busted a gut to reach a ball he had no right reaching and did the only thing he could do...play it right across the goal area.

We didn't have one man in the box to get on the end of it and that was criminal.

No service today for Rom.

No service today for Rom.

The better strikers don't always need service though.

Oh indeed, we ought to just buy one of those off PSG or Real Madrid.

 

[riddick]

I'm sick of how we literally give him nothing. It's such a waste..

 

[dannyboy]

The service was poor and they defended manfully but it's in games like this you need your £28m man to give you something.

Just watch.....when they fanny around on the edge of the box the ball is always knocked sideways or backwards before they stick it in the box for Rom to chase.

I assume this type of play us on the orders of the manager.

How can he give us something when he barely received the ball?

Good to see some people waking up and realising the problem isn't Rom, it's the lack of service he receives. He's feeding off scraps.

What i don't understand is..when losing a game, why not switch it to 2 upfront. Give him support and go for goal. Instead we seem stuck on keeping the same formation

Spot on.

I will never ever understand why we persist with 2 defensive mids when we're losing. Think i've just become numb to it now as it never changes.

 

[orly]

and playing the same formation with the players in the wrong positions.

Can't get Eto'o and Barkley into the same side? Then don't, we've got plenty of games left

 

[Paul Rideout]

It doesn't help him that we're 2-1 down and he's looking like he couldn't give one, trotting about, half-paced not closing any mofo diown. And thats what you notice at the game, so obviously the fans will get on his back.

Our manager will not change his philosophy,his words.

Think so, if it was the one I recall. He didnt know though, tight call. (arnt they all?)

...I thought the Spurs player actually played him in but it doesn't matter now anyway.
