We get away with this suicide football so often, hopefully being punished a few times might force something to change.

 

I am all for the possession and football but some of our play at the back is nothing short of horrific.

I get that it’s about possession football but when their tails are up just mix it up and go long for a couple of minutes (aim for Fats and Stephy)

[les-tah]

WTF no player at any level plays that pass that our keeper has just done

[LFox99]

Can't wait for everyone to pile onto Mads with criticism while immediately questioning our tactics

This is what we knew was going to happen eventually, it's a process

[Daggers]

I really hate that kit.

[ealingfox]

I'll never be convinced that it isn't better to play the ball long when all of the short options are marked.

We'd crucify Ward for that. 2x in 2 minutes. Unforgivable 

 

It literally isn't. 

 

It's obviously a mistake and it's bad but he's told to play that way. It'll look extremely bad when it goes wrong because they'll often score but equally how many times a season are we going to score goals because he picked the pass well, we broke the press, got out and scored? 

 

It'll go both ways.

Dumb and stupid from our goalkeeper 

I get the feeling he’ll go from the sublimely brilliant, to awful. 

[kingkisnorbo]

We’ll win.

[Bryn]

We need to slow things down here and just play it safe and quiet the crowd down here.

[ARM1968]

Love a proper FT match day thread. We’re DOOMED. 👍

[hejammy]

This could end up 5-5

[JimJams]

Fats gets his head up while on the run, positive from the lad. Not just eyes on the ball.

[OntarioFox]

High risk high reward, chin up boys, we'll have these

[TennesseeFox]

It’s about time mads gets caught out like that, hopefully he shapes up. Great start to the season, but some of his decision making in distribution is shocking.

That's not just on the keeper, we've been piss poor so far. 

I mean, that's kind of 100% all on keeper.

 

He chose the suicide pass and then failed to execute it..

 

Might aswell have just put it in the net himself.

Winks and Ndidi need to get a grip in Midfield. Very unlike them.

Playing like the saints goalkeeper did last week.......but did Winks call for the ball?

So casual in defence, clearing balls like we're doing warm ups

Pretty inexcusable from Mads there 

From everyone. The entire team dropped deep, our back 4 was 3 feet ahead of him. This shite has to be coming from Enzo.

[wardyfox86]

We'll concede a few like that this season, it's the tightrope we walk.

 

No need to lose our heads.

Jannik

 

What you doing 

[Bryn]

There’s Coady back in the side.

This!

 

Their fans are getting louder and louder with us playing into their hands right now.

Poor start, need to sharpen up

Twice in two minutes is brain dead. "He picked the pass? "😂
