Vellios can't even score for the reserves...
So he did look good only because Baines never passed to him? Just like I thoughtBaines literally didn't pass to him the entire game, like. Was hilarious. Twice he ended up skinning six players just so he didn't have to pass to oviedo.
.I don't think Moyes treated Brakley badly, or at least he wasn't trying to
Not playing him in the Sunderland game was inexusable.
If we win that then we could have still finished top 5
And where would we have found the other 7 points?
Beat Liverpool and Chelsea, which we could have done with the morale boost from winning at Sunderland
That's 5. Maximum points from sunderland onwards and we still finish 6th.
With us sniffing, maybe one of the teams above us slips up?
You never know
Come on mate, we BOTH agreed that Barkley should have played in that one
He should, but not because there was any chance of us catching spurs or arsenal. We had to beat them at their places for that.
There was still hope of a Top 5 finish that day
The Sunderland game was where it became clear we weren't going to do it
Win there and the seasons still alive. Who knows from that point?
If I recall, I said that's our season over after the game and you were like 'we can still get 5th'.
I was putting a brave face on things
I knew in my heart that was it though
Not playing Barkley after he did so well against Arsenal was a symptom of us going there and not looking to aggressive or take any chances
We deserved to lose that day
I think the grudge came in training mate, I heard Moyes thought he was a ****house in the challenge & they had a 'discussion' about it.
