  1. If Richards has always lacked tactical discipline, how is he going to get better?
  2. 'So I here you're a racist now, female partner-of-AV1'
  3. Maybe you should just watch the games instead of posting some FM waffle that doesn't correspond to reality.

    Highlights

    Thanks Chewie but no thanks this time! Wouldn't want to watch that match back again, it was awful!
  5. Careful Noel, he looked good on Match of the Day against Bournemouth. Absolute twaddle. I watched the full game, twice. I thought he was good last night too. I thought the entire unit was. The goal was weak, but they are going to conceed goals. That's the nature of the game. Watching a game twice doesn't make your opinion any more valid. It just means that you probably have too much time on your hands.
  6. We missed a creative player - him, Gil or Traore would have been a help.
  7. Would start him over Veretout at this point.
  8. Man Utd were poor, Sherwood set us up badly and the first half was almost exactly the same as the Bournemouth game. Tactics certainly weren't good, as a small number of people have voted. That said, we've got basically half a new team trying to settle in and there some encouraging performances from certain players - Amavi, Gana, Westwood and surprisingly (for me) Bacuna.
  9. I've been critical of Bacuna but I thought he did well today - people who said that he could grow in to the role might be right but then again Man U really didn't play well at all.
  10. He didn't play well but there are obviously reasons for that. Like Ayew, he needs time to adjust to the league and shouldn't be judged too harshly.
  11. Barely a couple of minutes prior to his substitution, Sinclair was up and running at defenders, taking them on and trying to do something. Gabby was basically standing there with dribble coming out of his mouth. No idea what Sherwood's thinking was.
  12. Tactically, he got it wrong yesterday. I've no idea why he thought that three up front, which was ultimately shit against Bournemouth would actually produce anything against a better side. Lambert used to get dog's abuse for persevering with things that clearly weren't going to work. Like the team, he's young and he's learning but as a manager, there's a lot less leeway than there is for a player.
  13. IMO this guy is basically our best player now. Settled in quickly and very well.
  14. He was having a lovely jog and watch of the action.
  15. Let off. Poor defensive line there.
  16. Gabby off, all day. Sinclair and Ayew have impressed this half.
  17. It doesn't matter who it's against - a poor goal is a poor goal regardless.
  18. You can't really blame him or any of the 3 forwards for the fact that they're too similar. It was a poor decision from Sherwood to start them all together.
  19. Careful Noel, he looked good on Match of the Day against Bournemouth.
  20. Awful half, from both teams really.
  21. You have a forward who scores throughout the pre-season - ignores him. You have a forward who comes on and scores in the last game, looking like our only threat - leaves him on the bench. You persevere with a line-up that was ineffectual against a Championship team. What the ****, Tim. Seriously.
  22. Because he's an awesome CB! Oh, wait.
  23. Well I'm glad he has as we've been good. How exactly have we been good? How many chances have we created? How many times have we done something threatening? This attacking line is far too similar, it just doesn't work.
  24. Sherwood must have missed the first half against Bournemouth, god knows why he's decided to go with the same ineffectual line-up.
