Villarocker Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Really negative to say this but, if we win the cup and don't do a lot of buying in the summer, I can see us in another relegation battle next season. These players in a Europa League campaign, and trying to stave off relegation, scares the life out of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 If we're not sold we'll be in a relegation battle next season, whatever happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With him in charge we will continue to suffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Lambert-esque performance today, we were woeful in every department, defensively we were very weak and we were clueless going forward - lacking any sort of creativity or incision, it was painful to watch. Actually watching the game at Villa park it struct me how little movement there is in our midfield, Delph aside, no one was really commanding the ball or moving into positive space. Our passing was just sidewards for the most part, very frustrating. I also couldn't believe how narrow we were, we really didn't have much of a genuine out-ball, especially in the first half. It was a putrid performance and we need to make some major signings this summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 The last two games have been poor (especially Southampton) but I think we'll perform a lot better in the final. It's not a good enough excuse but I do think that once we beat West Ham and Hull lost to Burnley the players minds probably switched to the cup final. I guess you could argue that this is something Sherwood should've sorted out but I'm confident that next season will be closer to the general pattern under Sherwood rather than the last couple of games, provided there is solid investment for a change.

DamsonwoodVillan Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I'll always love him for how he got us over the line in previous games, but Tim got it badly wrong today for me. I can only hope he has the genius needed for Saturday. Whatever happens next week the club can ill afford a bad summer window. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) One thing I will say is that Sherwood really needs to address this shameful and pathetic habit we have of conceding early in games - so often we pretty much scupper any chance of growing into a game and sticking to the plan becuase of stupid mistakes. In fairness it's a problem we've had for quite a while but it needs to be sorted out. Edited May 24, 2015 by Mantis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my major concern about him, tactically naive and too stubborn to change them even when it's clear it's not working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness it's a problem we've had for quite a while but it needs to be sorted out.Conceding early in a game is not really a problem as long as the team on the receiving end keep calm and have a viable game plan to stick to. You've got nearly the whole game to fight back. The real problem today was that we didn't (fight back/keep calm/have a game plan). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real problem today was that we didn't (fight back/keep calm/have a game plan). Yeah but if you keep on doing it as we do then it will inevitably cause problems from time to time. I also think it shows a severe lack of concentration. If we concede early against Arsenal for example then we've got very little chance of winning even if we do fight back with a plan.

What about when we dominated Liverpool, spurs, Everton and man city? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the tactics were certainly shite today, far too narrow for a lot of that game, the shape was absolutely awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butterfingers Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Would just point out to all the "early goal" merchants that almost every PL team scored against us at the end of games under MON, most during stoppage time. I didn't see the same level of criticism then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
