adamlcfcbevo85 Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Hopeful that we can come back from this but that first half made me feel physically sick, why are we playing so dreadful it's so hard to take this is but again 442 same team selection Bournemouth had no need to do any homework, let's get out there 2nd half and push for a goal or 2 or at least a shot not go 1-1 on there keeper then pass it back to our keeper
Kitchandro Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Just now, Babylon said: Well Bournemouth seem to manage to get a load of lower league players to do it. It's about making sure people have plenty of options and keeping things short. What's lower league got to do with anything? I'm talking about poor footballers. Players with no technical skill. What level they've been at before is irrelevant, decent footballers can play at a lower level for numerous reasons. Amartey can't kick a ball, it's as simple as that. You can't afford 4 or 5 players who aren't any good on the ball.
adejo92 Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 We will probably pay 15mil for that Ndidi and never see him because he is 'not ready'
AjcW Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Why play for a draw against a team that are there to attack and break against because they play so open???? madness
Vacamion Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 We might have led. The fact that we're trailing sets off the negative Noras in here. I still have hope.

Brooksy Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Right then you useless shites, lets see some attacking intent.
steflcfc Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 When the players put in a performance like they have for most the season in the league away from home it's fair to criticise their performance. Slimanis the perfect example set 2 up got stuck in and ran himself into the ground. Tonight poor first touch, slowing our play down, losing possession and only won 1 header all of the first half, he is having a shocker and should be subbed at half time. As much as Morgan infuriates me with his long ball, it's the only pass he can really make as he has 2 cm in front of him with no attacking creativity at all. backwards and sideways is all King and Amartey know. Ranieri needs to ring the changes this half as after a spirited performance against man city, I was hoping we would kick on, but it's like we have took 5 steps backwards again. Our away game plan all season has been non existent and we just sit back untill we concede, why it's changed so defensively/negative after last season is anyone's guess. 45 mins to get it right else winning sat somes redundant if we can't follow it up with a result tonight

Standing off them, allowing them space up until the final third, Wilshere controlling things because our players don't want to tackle him.

I've been badgered in to buying a big selection box type affair before by the wife and my rabble of kids. I didn't know which was which. Unvelievably I ended up with a coffee one. I hate coffee and the gods of random doughnut hate me.

Guest Col city fan Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 1 minute ago, lgfualol said: I think it is more Ranieri telling the players to get it up to Vardy. Bournemouth know exactly what to expect. Frustrating. A good, quality midfielder comes to collect the bloody ball and the defence are looking to pass it to him as soon as they can. This is one of the biggest problems. There is so little trust in our midfield that the game plan is effectively to bypass them. The goals against Man City were basically route one. Apart from King's strike. Ttfn brought up after the match...Toure made more passes to team-mates in 25 mins than ours did in 90. This all matters.

I'm just sick of people saying he doesn't pass it forward when the stats show his forward passing to be the most effective currently in the central area.
Merging Cultures Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 I'll wait until the end of the match to ask if there is any humble pie for the humble pie thread?!

The People's Hero Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 We should close down every game and press. We all know this so let's move on and get back to discussing baked goods

Merging Cultures Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Andy King just let Josh King do whatever he wanted.
simFox Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 They're all over us, have they got more players?
