smetrov Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Not a convincing win by any means. The crumb of comfort was Delfonso took his chance well - and was unlucky to have another chalked off. His performance wasn't great esp in the first half - but so long as he keeps popping them in - that'll do. There equaliser was bif fortunate for them - but also a comedy of errors from Ireland, Dunne, Collins. The defence looked awful - we could have been 3 down in the first 7 minutes. Ash young easily MOTM........but this performance doesn't convince me that we are on the dawn of a new era - we were running like headless chickens for a large portion of the game.

ChrisNichollsToe Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Well we almost cocked that up again, due to our inability to kill a game off and putting the ball in the net!!! Striker needed at any price, Randy.......ASAP!! BTW, im fed up of having shit refs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOTTI-THE-GOD Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Just saw the penalty incident , 100% penalty . The Ref has been pretty shambolic from what the highlights have shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sani Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 my ratings: friedel 6 - could do nothing about the goals warnock 4 - bad season, loads of yellow cards and was torn apart today dunne 6 - okay, nothing more collins 5 - ok, he won the game but the campbells second was horrible defending l young 5 - nothing special downing 7 - lucky goal but had some great passes and crosses today bannan 6 - wasnt involved enough clark 5 - was he even on the pitch in the second half? a young 6 - all over the place, needs to find a role and stick to it albrighton 6 - needs to learn to pass early and not hold up the ball all the time delf 7 - scored twice, **** the ref, and did the best that he could subs: gabby 6 - decent run out ireland - not enough time lichaj - same the ref was the worst ive seen for a long time. the premier league and its refs are a disgrace, this is supposed to be the biggest league in the world yet the refs are pathetic. clear goal, clear penalty and loads of other poor decisions.

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Not great in parts but second half for 20 minutes, we absolutely battered them, sort of reminded me of when we played Burnley at home but we simply weren't as clinical and also got robbed by the Ref again with Fonz first. Anyway, Friedel - 6.5 - First goal, could of made it harder for Harewood, but apart from that, solid. Young - 7 - Some great attacking runs but also needs to be quicker with his distribution. Dunne - 7 - Pretty solid. Collins - 6.5 - Made up for his socking error in the first half. Warnock - 6 - Got raped by Matt Phillips. Clark - 6 - Thought he struggled a little. Bannan - 7 - struggled at times, but also when he got on the ball, he looked dangerous, maybe too many 'hollywood' balls but also some excellent passing. Downing - 8 - His energy up and down the pitch was absolutely unbelievable. Good goal too. Young - 8 - I thought he looked a lot better, especially 2nd half, finding good space and creating. Albrighton - 7 - missed a great chance at 2-1, had a pretty decent game though. Delfouneso - 7 - Overall game was okay, not brilliant but I don't think the teams performance helped, he had 2 chances and scored both. One was stupidly dissalowed though. Btw, that Matt Phillips looked tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisNichollsToe Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Anyone else think Holloway's after match interview was abit shit and bitchy. Understandable. He was looking at a bonus point, then lost it seconds later. I think the word is "mugged" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 First half was dogshite. Second half was hugely improved. Referee was a cuuunt. Not sure what Houllier was thinking when he took Delfouneso off though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted November 10, 2010 Moderator Share Posted November 10, 2010 Dunne - 7 - Pretty solid. Kenny Everett doing John McEnroe THe only thing solid about that performance that was solid would get flushed down the pan He was at fault for both their goals Completely lost his man & caught at a standstill for the first and got in the way of Collins, who until that point was tracking his man for the second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieB Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Not sure what Houllier was thinking when he took Delfouneso off though. To give Gabby some minutes on the pitch I would think. I'm sure it wasn't because Delfouneso wasn't doing the business. He scored 2 great goals tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 agree about the fonz, seemed a bit of a comprimise, we didnt really want to change our shape and at the same time gabby needed some playing time before utd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I saw, I thought he was solid. 2nd, just seen a replay,wouldn't argue with that. By the way, how bad Ireland. :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
