AVTuco Posted February 19, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 19, 2022 If we come out to the second half with the same intensity, I'm happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played a few good passes, and one or two good link ups, but no goals or assist and missed a one on one that was offside anyway! He's been okay. Not good, certainly not great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister_a Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Two men on the wingers, close us down, wait for gaps on the wings. We are fairly simple to play against really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The_Steve Posted February 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2022 Ten efforts on goal. A stonewall penalty not given. Great link-up play, some stupid distance shooting mixed with some poor and decent crosses. There's plenty to feel positive about. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattVillaPortsmouth Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Same problems, midfield 3 and fullbacks. This is a poor Watford side who we have made look ok. Every time we get the ball is the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good player that simply does not gel within out setup and with his teammates. Flog him and buy better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 How are we so shit and getting shitter. Look at our squad FFS. Do we have Sherwood Mk. 2 on our hands or can he actually get a tune out of this squad… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted February 19, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 19, 2022 Kinda feels like we need to work the ball to get the fullbacks in at the byline for this formation to work. Not really exactly sure what we're trying to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfTimePost Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 @M_Afro I missed the lock in the pre match thread. Gerrard was quoted saying the midfield is doing well just last week. "Tim is extremely close," he said. "He's training really well and did well in the two friendlies we played behind closed doors. "I know he's ready but, the midfield area at the moment for us, I'm really pleased with it. It's looking good, looking strong. Tim has to keep pushing and fighting." So that's why I think he is pleased with it. Because he said so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 The overall play is better, if not particularly convincing, but we have to do more than that against Watford at home. Decision making and quality in the final third is lacking. Which makes me think it might be a confidence issue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomC Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Just now, pregra said: Awful half. Baffling how someone can watch this and conclude that we are playing well. Its Watford, at home. It wasn't awful. They're parking the bus and they're tough to play against. Other than the one time we left ourselves to a counter-attack down our right, do you feel like they've ever been a threat to score? No...even when they have the ball, you get the feeling they're just buying their defence some rest time. If we get a goal and they open up, we'll get more. Of course, if they nip one, we're still going to be facing park-the-bus and it will be a tough fight for a draw. Just that sort of match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted February 19, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 19, 2022 This is gonna be one of those 'we could have played all night and not scored' games. It is remarkable that we have always been shit at breaking down defensive sides, and yet if we try to park the bus you know we'll chuck one in eventually to help the opponents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 1 minute ago, VillaChris said: All just very boring really. We've gone back to the poor habit of knocking the ball around at pedestrian pace. Get the feeling the Gerrard system already been sussed out at this level. The last ten minutes especially felt like we were simply out of ideas. Players shooting from 30 yards is usually a sign of frustration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can park the bus all they want, it's poor from us so far to have zero shots on target and created next to no chance apart from Ings which was offside anyway. Our standards really have fallen if this is deemed decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
