0.05 expected goals hahaha

Decent 1st half really, great save from the mighty Mads and think Thomas has been good. Nice to go into half time not trailing, was going to mow the lawn this afternoon as i assumed we would be getting hammered lol. 

 

Not sure if/how we will score still but at least we not as shit as usual

Soumare is killing all our attacking intent. Just kills it dead. Needs to come off for winks.

[The off]

Looks like Cucuella is angling for a L'Oréal advertising contract with that hair of his. Faes in comparison looks like he has a bird's nest on his head!

To be fair, he then absolutely busted a gut a few mins after I posted this. It's like he's got some faulty software that randomly kicks in every now and again 

It's a glitch in his system. His normal switch is "be rubbish",  an electrical surge makes him OK for 1% of the time.

That sounds better than nornal

[coolhandfox]

Don't think you can have many complaints about that half.

 

A team in dreadful form and confidence is'nt going to turn around over night.

 

Formation seem to suit the players we have, just need be a little sharper on the ball and be more decisive when we break.

Yes get him and Kristensen off 

[fox_favourite]

How's the formation working?

[Ian Nacho]

And here's me thinking Bruno Fernandez was the most irritating Fernandez in the division. 

[foxfanazer]

Need to be braver. We've not put ourselves in a position where playing for 0-0's are gonna be good enough. Defended somewhat better but no real out all and sloppy in attacking positions 

[Mark]

Got no time for Enzo ball, wouldn't want him back if he was sacked

[Hamilton Fox]

We have had enough occasions on the break with midfielders having plenty of room but not being able to find the attackers run with crappy passes

4 players in front of him and decides to go back, most negative mindset player I can remember

[whoareyaaa]

Not bad, but need to change some things like Soumare off for Winks and Kristensen for Woyo as @moore_94 says

[Haywood_6]

Hermansen penalty save keeping us in it. We've kept them at bay. Everything breaks down when we try and go forward. Set pieces shocking.

Glad chelsea are playing sh1t.

[Ian Nacho]

Was it a penalty? Looked soft in the ground. 

[baldeagle]

It’s not pretty but it’s been effective

He made the most of it, softest pen you will see

Not a bad first half. Now just keep it up in the second half. 

[lcfcfoz]

Soumare off for winks. Mavidid on for daka

He doesn’t even want to try and turn with the ball, just smashes it back.  He is offering his all though, it’s just very little.

When you're down at the bottom, I'll take that any day. 

[winteriscoming]

Rather have Ricardo on than Winks.
