Braga A Match thread

[RowlattsFox]

If we can get control of the game then we can score against these. But problem is they look like they'll score every time they get near the box. Fofana and Tielemans on for Albrighton and Fuchs. 

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

We will win this if we change things at HT. But personnel and formation changes needed. 

[Tuna]

Sweary Schmeichel.

[spacemunky]

Kasper F@%king Schmeichel!

[Izzy]

"Ref, you said 20 seconds fvckin 40 seconds ago!" Kasper

With the greatest of respect, without looking at the league table, I bet you couldn't name more than two other teams in the Portuguese league and even then, I'd bet my mortgage you name Porto and Sporting Lisbon.

 

Ah sorry, didn't realise Wolves couldn't beat them, that changes everything, sorry Brendan.

Portugal are a good footballing nation.  To dismiss Braga as mid-Championship level is plain ignorant.

[trabuch]

Kasper really shouldn't be swearing at the ref.

[StriderHiryu]

STOP THE COUNT!

 

Need half time badly.

They don't look too great defensively if we can press more. 

Neither do we - to put it mildly

[Grebfromgrebland]

Brendan made a mistake going weak on this match. We need confidence and to secure or place in the next round.

 

Lose this and we have to get 3 points from somewhere else. 

 

At least we're only losing by one.

 

We can only assume that the rest of the fit players are knackered.

[Tuna]

That trailer for Brighton Liverpool is hideous.

[TrickyTrevLeftPeg]

Need to take off albrighton as he's getting absolutely rinsed down that right hand side. However he's not received any support from under.

 

We also need someone who can receive the ball in midfield and be able to spin on the half turn. We've not done that once this half.

 

Finally we have no threat or running in behind to stretch their defence.

 

Address those matters and we can get back in this

Wondering where the Kasper critics are tonight?

 

They are here...

[lgfualol]

Schmeichel constantly screaming, is he always this aggressive

[foxes_rule1978]

Are braga great or are we just awful at the moment 

[Nalis]

Kasper's voicebox is our MOTM so far

[Bats8711]

Microphone behind Kaspar is MOTM so far

[Beechey]

I'm loving Kasper gobbing off at the referee 

[KFS]

“Get the fvck up you cheating fvck”

[sternenlicht]

I don't understand this 5-defender nonsense. We can't keep possession of the ball.

[StanSP]

It's average at very best. 

 

The only good thing has been our limited pressing up the field to make them in to making mistakes. Other than that it's lacking so much creativity. Nothing in the middle, Praet not getting on the ball and our wing backs have very few options. 

 

We need a spark for sure. Maddison, Youri or Vardy to come on. Or all 3. 

[Danizen]

The ref's giving Kasper the disappointed dad routine

Nothing wrong with the system, it's the players that are crap

Shoving three full backs and a winger into a back 5 isn't helping.

Perhaps so, dont take it personally,  it was probably just a silly comment by me (most are which is why I'm sat at home and not on the touch line)
