Looking through the side I think confidence is just shot. Fonte who is pretty much mr consistant made two big errors, clyne isnt hitting the heights he was. Pellè is struggling, elia and tadic arent as troublesome as before. I like JWP a lot, dont understand the criticism tbh, pre injury he looked v good. And technically he is excellent. But he looks a bit out of sorts to me. Hopefully last nights win acts to galvanise the squad
-
No idea, wasnt even a particularly bad strike. And he had to get to the ball and strike it with his weak foot under pressure. Poor lad is damned if he does and damned if he doesnt.
-
Did you see the shot ? Decent effort from his wrong foot you utter moron
-
Good old glasgow

Any streams work for Iphones ?

If your not very good at shooting from range then effectively you just give the ball back to an opposition happy to just try to stop us playing. Unfortunately we arent very good at shooting, and so it may be the case that they are being asked to be more conservative. Realistically long shots at this level need to be very good though. For me its the full bavks not being on form recently and the wide men coming inside as opposed to trying to get behind.
-
He isnt exactly injury prone tbh, he has had a few injuries this year but in general has had a pretty consistant run overall. As for form, his last game before injury was Utd, within which he was excellent. He wasnt at his best against liverpool but I certainly didnt see him being particularly poor. Quite away ahead of young Reed right now, who apart from having incredible industry and tenacity simply isnt expansive enough yet
-
You'd be hard pressed to say the don made many wrong decisions considering how far he took us. He was a monumental **** however, which is where I believe the difference is
-
If you dont know how to strike a ball or keep composure by this point in their career they are in trouble Besides, Id imagine its confidence based
-
Id personally hazard a guess our top earners are on more than what FM purports, as those wages are pretty low by pl standards
-
Maybe there just wasnt anybody out there worth bringing in ?! We dont know the state of the FFP finances either, I think we all realise that not having back up for Pellè isnt a good thing, but thats not to say there wasnt a reason for not getting somebody in. Realistically who is there ? That clubs would be willing enough to release in Jan ? I cant think of many that wouldnt be overpriced, and thats just not our way at all.
-
He doesnt want to come south
-
Personally I dont think his finishing has changed much at all tbh The chances and possession are based mainly on the opposition realising we are a threat and getting organised to compensate. Id like to see us change things a bit, take more risks and be quicker in possession
-
I just dont get this arguement, you dont get a multitude of chances at the top level. Which is why you need to make the most of what we do create. The odd game will always go by with frustration. But enough is being created for us to do better. On the plus side atleast Pellè was in decent goalscoring positions this week. But he has to do better. And Im talking about his allround game, not just composure infront of goal.
-
Id expect composure ffs, other parts of his game are half decent but has he scored a goal he hasnt absolutely wellied ?! I coach lads with more experience than him.
-
As I said from day one, lad lacks composure
-
No probs bud

Now Im seeing it as blue n black Thats f'n weird

And lets be honest, we got VERY lucky over the summer, anyone that thinks that transfer model is sustainable for any amount of time is at best ill informed. -

Exactly, IF we are looking at trying to establish ourselves as a name that will attempt to try and break into that top four then we should realistically be looking to pay between 60-90k for most of our better players. Id be surprised if we were not already paying around the 50-60k mark for top earners anyway. As for that price bracket Ill be surprised if we arent willing to pay those sorts of wages given that we are more than flirting around attempting to keep Toby permanently. I cant get too excited with this though, as always I dont expect the club or Clyne would agree in the early stages and unfortunately Clyne holds most of the cards right now. -
No shots are born equal bear, now bugger off and use the bear only forum, you know the rules
