stegzy Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Not great so far, Sunderland look terrible and we’re matching them. Taylor has been awful, Adomah has been great. Must be a tiny attendance as you can hear all the fans comments on the live commentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoony Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Proper shite first half. Midfield have been dire. But hey, we are winning. If we get another this game is over cos Sunderland are dreadful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAuthority Posted November 21, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted November 21, 2017 We need someone to step up and be a leader and just put this game to bed. Without Terry we look a bit soft. Wish Conner would do it but maybe they're all exhausted after Saturday? It was a high tempo end to end game. This is a game of statues and hoofball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 God you know these clowns are gojng to blow this. We have been pretty poor and really shouldnt be wimning.

alreadyexists Posted November 21, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted November 21, 2017 Thought we played pretty well there, looked dangerous on the ball and although they’ve had possession and looked to move forward they’ve barely troubled us. They looked really pumped and up for it, their marketing and pressing has been impressive, but I would expect them to tire later on in the 2nd as they haven’t been pressing that hard on other games. If they had they wouldn’t likely be where they are. Coleman has them fired up, but I think we will score one more next half and that’ll be us win 2-0.

VillaAlex Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Davis has been poor, this will be the problem... He is our only remaining striker, he is young and it's going to be a lot for him to perform to the standard he has every week. Hourihane has been surprisingly poor too, he has been quite consistent recently, probably his worst performance of the season. Taylor looks nervy, and they keep finding space down his side. Again he is usually better than this... On the plus side Samba and Hutton have done well, as has Snodgrass in parts but like most of our attack has been sloppy at times. We must improve else they will equalise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummybloke Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 No energy or urgency in this. We need energy in the middle and pace upfront as they are under no pressure until the last 30 yards by which time they fire at goal. Unless we freshen it up at half time u can see us conceding and the game being hard work. Jed and grealish need to come into it for a bit of silk and steel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumerican Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 There is no off the ball movement and they aren't closing down as quickly as they did Saturday. They're tired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) Championship football is for the most part painful to watch, this game is no exception. You can still enjoy it to a point I guess. As long as you don't compare it to the other football you watch. Bit like when parents put their 4 y.o kids painting of a horse/airplane/grandpa? on the wall next to a van Gogh replica.

lexicon Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 The big problem we have is that Davis looked out on his feet from the first whistle - he's not really done anything or ran much and that's a problem for us. Luckily, our defence has been great so far and Adomah and Snoddy look like they can make things happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a m ole Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 they’re putting a lot into this game for their new manager. think they’ll tire. bring Grealish on against a tired defence and I think we’ll be quite comfortable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would too, probably wait until 55-60 mins though so that Grealish can run at their defence when more tired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
