a m ole Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Maupay has an incredibly punchable face, and that is before the stamp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I right to assume the performance so far has been close to the Wolves drubbing earlier this year? Seems much better than last match. Better, I’d say.

snowychap Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Some very decent stuff. Goal conceded was pretty poor. That Maupay's a dirty little shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Amazing what a couple of quality players on their way in does to the performance levels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope so but that fulham player didn't get a ban after that stamp in the play off final so I have no faith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'm truly shocked how fluid we look with the ball, it doesn't make sense with this "formation".. Still don't know what it is. But we do look woefully exposed without the ball. Brentford look dangerous when they have it but they've barely touched it. Arguably both teams should be down to ten, Brentford definitely. Think the ref is having a poor game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted August 22, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2018 Best performance so far this season. Obviously the three points would be the most important thing, but so far this has given me encouragement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoughboroughLion Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Like it - susceptible to the counter, but look fairly comfortable. Need more shots and test the keeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 What is it with refs missing stamps against us. Fulham and now this. Both big games that could cost us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuanzebe has actually been good going forward, put in 2-3 good crosses, always on the move and rarely giving the ball away. However his defending for the goal was absolutely horrific. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted August 22, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2018 So... - we’ve played so well, classy and elegant - king Kodj is back! - we should have had a penalty and they should be down to 10 - McGinn is ****ing awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 No surprise we look a million times better when we go for it, pressing when we havent got the ball, and keeping the ball on the deck and to feet - that is how Grealish, McGinn, Kodjia etc like to play. Final ball from Adomah and Elmo been poor, but then looks like we will have 2 new wingers soon. If Bruce sent us out like this all the time he wouldnt get as much stick as he has been 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osmark86 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 The good: we are dominating this and pressing high with some excellent play. That goal was an absolute beauty and we really should have had more. The bad: the defending for their goal was ridiculously poor. Pub level. Really need to tighten up there. The ugly: that blatant Maupay stamp on McGinn. How did the ref miss that? Hope there will be repercussions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Adomah is putting a shift in but he’s letting down the play too often. I’d get Green on. It was a really poor goal to concede defensively though.

jim Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 In fairness Kodjia was lucky to still be on the pitch as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoFantastico Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I honestly hope that the EFL take a look at the stamp again, I'd hate to see any player be injured by such an awful blatant foul. Simply can't be allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the break doesn’t throw our rythm. NO NO NO. Playing against 10 men is much harder Credit where credit is due. This is good stuff. This is what I have wanted to see since day 1. Well done Bruce. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
