bit of a let down thus far not much of a replacement for Morgan sat on the bench

bournemouth taking the game to chelsea

it is because he is stuck out wide he is miles better when he is more central

I cant see us getting many more whilst we have so little pace in the team. it is so dull to watch

shyte after the usual opening 10-15 mins spell. weare pretty crap as an attacking force. Slow, ponderous and very dull. the stats will say we had loads of shots. but how busy was guzan? set pieces have been our get out all season. We are turning into stoke of a few years ago I believe Pelle is a big part of that for the reasons I have given plenty of times in other threads how he stays on the pitch constantly when he is a passenger os a joke extra point towards 40, I guess Davis my MoM

mane for long

jesus cedric asleep there

davis has been our best player today, IMO

at last Romeu 1-1 proper bundled in

great ball by davis good shot by juanmi, good save

mahrez hattrick

another chance off target, brilliant cross from cedric, juanmi heads wide

it has been like that for a while The9 is adamant we have lots of movement up top vic and tadic off for juanmi and romeu

why is pelle trying more volleys like that again

Ron needs to change it still look like never scoring if anything, villa look far more threatening

no he doesnt. he is playing like he has since he has been here.

pelle shouldnt be trying a volley like that, there

closing down has gone from the side 90% of the time. we sit back and get into a shape rather than close down. we go for the CBs when they have the ball and that is about it

JWP off for Long or Juanmi for me Get mane central and actually run at them we do that alarmingly so little

agree. But this is where juanmi must play a part. otherwise, what was the point just so slow in attack and so many sideways/backwards passes

HT said it a few weeks now we have to do something different in attack we have been shyte up front for a while yet we keep on with the same things Pelle does not defend from the front, is not quick. moves little and when he does it is slow Mane needs to be central with him or Long has to come on for him.

well, we had our usual very good 10-15 mins at the start of the game so slow and ponderous in attack. SO MANY backwards passes and now we are losing shambles as an attacking force

well. now back to being slow in attack and lots more long balls

another chance missed more difficult this one. but missed anyway

jeez good ball into gestede and he misses the ball completely, just in front of the penalty spot
