Popular Post ferguson1 Posted May 5 Popular Post Share Posted May 5 I’ve said it numerous times over the last week or so but we need at least three in the middle. Get Iroegbunum on for Diaby and we’ll get a grip of the game. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is only still here because of our awful injury record. He'll be gone next month. We just need to try and find the energy to push on for one more half. How much have you seen of him? McGinn is playing so poorly in CM, we can't be any worse. Zero control. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think he’s looked any good when he has played more recently. He must have talent but I haven’t seen he’s up to this level recently so I wouldn’t be putting him in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted May 5 VT Supporter Share Posted May 5 2 minutes ago, OutByEaster? said: We've got too many players in front of the ball waiting for it to come from too few players behind the ball - the balance is slightly wrong - Bailey, Diaby and Watkins can't contribute when we can't get them the ball - one of them may need to be sacrificed. Totally agree however Emery has tended to take them BOTH off in recent weeks leaving us imbalanced the other way, which I don't understand.

markavfc40 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Performance of a team with f all to play for. We should be saying that about Brighton not the one playing for 4th. Need a rocket up their arses as some of those performances were embarrassing. The set up looks all wrong though and we are short in midfield. Emery clearly doesn't fancy Tim but he needs to change it. Fair play to Olsen only one who looks up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummybloke Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Some very poor play again today. Rogers off and cash on has messed us up. Bailey has not had a look in being put out on the left and diaby is invisible where ever he is meant to be playing. Add in watkins bizarre decision making that half. Olsen hasn't made any mistakes and we seem to be bypassing him more when playing it at the back but our over all passing had been pretty bad. Can only improve after that showing.

He isn't quite at the level to step up to where we need him to be, imo, but this is an absolutely ludicrous opinion considering how well he did down there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Iroegbunum on for Diaby and we’ll get a grip of the game. We've never played with three in the middle under Unai, not sure why we would change our shape now. I agree with the subs though, moving McGinn into one of the wide positions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aston_Villan4 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 2 minutes ago, OutByEaster? said: I've seen several replays of the penalty claim now and I think it's one you wouldn't be at all surprised to see given - surprised it was passed over so quickly. I mean.. he clearly stuck his leg in and it tripped Rogers. Don’t think he needed to flop much, if he did, to sell that. Should’ve gone to the monitor at the least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree the quality isnt there But the shape would be better It's a hard balance, made harder when you see bailey and diaby struggling to get in to the game because we have no midfield Tim wouldn't be worse than diaby out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A certain section have decided he's shit and no amount of evidence will shift that position. You're about to get a few posters telling you he was at fault for some of the goals midweek. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django_Zooms Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Inaccurate passing was the biggest flaw in the first half. And then, poor control by the front 4 - now 3 post-Rogers - when the pass was OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
