    Passing has got sloppy and playing to safe...1st touch back most of the time Need to move it quicker. Allowing utd to set up to easily. Need a goal to force utd to play and free up.the space

    Stop this high line shit. Get some shape...stop backing off..especially away from home. Have a bit of work ethic and move the ball. It's even a reserve spurs side....some of these players haven't been in a match squad in ages. Game should be dead but we have a chance I expect better things

    High line has nothing to do.with it....its unai's work going forward. The high line is more risk.than reward. Playing it on the half way line gives the oppo a starting position of being onside...we go one way...they go the other. There's the risk...both are going opposite directions...and has proven many times..we then have to back track and Emi makes the save. Cant keep giving oppo a whole half to play with. Drop 10.yards mid blockish narrow.the space between back line and GK...they can't go over the top then...theres no space...like what teams do to us. Dropping it 10 means oppo is our half already starting from a potential offside position rather than an onside when it's on the half way line. Why cure the problem....when.we could prevent it a lot more...just a thought

    Drop the high line 10 yards Up.the tempo in attack This team.will.go.places

    i thought he got in good positions and got on the ball a lot. I think he was let down by Digne not playing more forward so he had an outlet...most the time he had to either come back inside to trouble....Moreno would have been great for him Probably should have scored...extra touch took him wide....maybe confidence he does. I'd be more concerned if wasnt getting in the positions and not wanting the ball...the end product will come soon

    At home we can get away with it because ,most teams will sit back Away i would like to see it dropped a bit back....Dublin was right...we are basically giving the oppo's the whole half to play with...its risky...i'd rather be a bit deeper and close that gap between the back line and GK. Ultimately we are going one way and the oppo are going the other way.....as a starting point fine but we must drop with the ball to make it more effective...rather than hoping for an offside....Martinez can then act as a sweeper keeper...if one gets through..... there was one with digne and zaniolo getting it wrong

    I only watched the first half because I had to go out. We always seem.to struggle against teams who do play the low block and five in the.middle. It was clear even early on we were going to have much of the ball. Second half I would have liked to see maybe 3 at the back and put the extra attacker on give forest something to think about rather than than just sit and say go on then. They had the numerical advantage at the back and in midfield...always going to be tough. Wakins and diaby plus zaniolo 3 against four and luiz kamara mcginn and either cash or Diane against their 5. Disappointed but we dust down and go again

    Comments like this really make me laugh Player not playing gets a mention when something bad happens. Mings is a loss...but come on....its not like we never conceded when he played Going in 0-0 after dominating 1st half ...we all.knew what would happen...mings or no mings
  9. Bazmonkey
    Definitely not the best of games. I still feel there is a really good.player there. Not much of a preseason...new.country...high expectations. I think for the first goal leading from the corner...it.was a bad touch but having seen it on the TV....neither luiz or kamara show for him which ultimately led to his mistake.

    The performance has been poor. However...its a team effort.... Saying Mings this...MIngs that would have changed the result if the other 10 are doing naff all. Is mings supposed to close down their defence....is mings supposed to chase Trent down so he can't ping balls....he is a loss...but not the savour. It's a team effort or in this case a severe lack of

    Credit where credit is due....a good game...two goals But one swallow doesn't make a summer. Come back when he has had a good run of games with good performances Let's be sensible
  12. Bazmonkey
    This.... To slow....to casual Should be ripping these apart 100% effort
  13. Bazmonkey
    Stick that performance in someone in a utd....arsenal.....even west ham the media would be reaching for andrex watching that. Quality....good to see him in good form and playing well
  14. Bazmonkey
    Laporte We should be all over this as he is available

    Spot on fella. This is basically what I was trying say. Lets use it...but we need to realise that when its looking a concern....change it up.

    Interesting debate. For me, I'm not a fan of it nor was I fan of it last season. Reading some of the comments 'it worked last year' is not really looking at it properly. Did it work last year...or....did we get away with it. I'd say the later. And this is the problem, we got caught a lot playing high...last ditch tackles and even saves by Martinez, but ultimately, did we concede....No. I look at the Spurs game at home, Even Newcastle, Brighton. The issue with a high line is it doesn't make the opposition change the way they play....why...they will keep doing the same thing until eventually one gets through....Newcastle Saturday did this and capitalised many times. Its a big risk. So...what's the solution...I think Emry (only criticism) needs to realise that playing this system, and using sat as an example...we were 3-1 down and still playing high. Just drop back a bit...soak it it up, let them beat you rather than give them an opportunity...a mid to low block....10 yards nothing major....this would cut the one over the top as the space is limited. Why run the risk...just cut it out. You can play a high line...with possession but without you cant just stand still...like the Barnes goal....no mans land...you need to react and thats to drop....quick....lot easier to catch up moving rather standing still. For me...just drop back a bit...let the oppo beat you by making you do something....dont give them chance as ultimately...we will concede

    He was a right midfield / wing...receiving the ball there totally different to playing at right back. You can see it all.the time....ball comes to him and he panics. Absolutely. We need better to be challenging the clubs ambitions. For me it's his positional sense. How many times do our wingers get the ball under pressure or are forced back. Then compare it with wingers against cash. He is either to deep.or just let's them gain 30 years before doing anything

    Doesnt want the ball Struggles with it. Positional awareness is shocking. Served us well...but we definitely should be looking for an upgrade
  19. Bazmonkey
    very poor today....distribution was shocking. Been like it in the friendlies.....needs a kick up the ass Was a bright light last season, needs to find that spark again....soon
  20. Bazmonkey
    Have we actually attacked this game???
  21. Bazmonkey
    Slow.....casual....lackluster. 2nd to most things Bad day....bad week. Write it off

    still keeps getting caught with 60 yard diagonal pass and slow to get out....took his goal well...links up in final third but still needs to work on positional sense
  23. Bazmonkey
    I've said this before...he sits too deep in our box.....he blocks it on the 6 yard line having tuned round from initial shot. If he aint that deep and where the goal shot comes from he hooks that away....instead...no mans land on 6 yard line
  24. Bazmonkey
    Lazy from Watkins Needs to.score them
  25. Bazmonkey
    Great strike....but again....full back tucked in to much...balls.travelled 40 yards and still we are no where near.... Nice one konsa
