jacketspuds Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 If we had a really clinical striker, we'd have done that lot comfortably. Happy with the draw to be honest. Agreed. A draw means with out of the bottom 3, and for that I'm very happy. It was a derby, we were under a lot of pressure, but GH has to see that we are desperare for a goalscorer.

kurtsimonw Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 A bit unlucky with the woodwork and we were decent at spells. Was more a must not lose than s must win and we didn't lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanpabloangel18 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Downing - awful - total pussy Carew - awful - dont wanna see him play again tbh Petrov - awful - completely anonymous Senior players let us down. starting formation very questionable. Like to see Fonz and Gab starting up front, '4 4 **** 2' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Friedel 6 - would have been 7 until his "challenge" v Zigic Walker 7 Dunne 6 - still looks a liability Collins 6 Clark 7 would rather have him at LB than warnock, improved after Bentley started lively in 1st half hour Downing 6 Petrov 5 - square ball, square ball, square ball Reo-Coker 6 Albrighton 6 going forward great, at times a liability defending Gabby - 6 Carew - 5 sadly we need a new striker and fast Bannan - 5 so so Delfouenso- 6 very good substitute performance We would be taking three points from games like this if we could get a decent striker in. it's so obvious that we need this deperately. We were by far the better team and they look more likeley to go down than we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Typical of bentley to have a good game for them, he was making a difference in there team. Without him we would have run them ragid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villianusa Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Happy with a point in the end but was so close to winning it. Overall a good display but Downing and Petrov were missing; surprized he took off NRC and not Petrov. Should of played 442 from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonno_2004 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I'd have the Fonz and Gabby playing off each other. Would be brilliant if Adam was feeding in balls to feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbaughan Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Can i just say how much i loathe sky and its furiously masterbating over 'king kenny'!!! are they still doing it mate? I swtiched it off once the game was over, pathetic really that they do this. Yup, just had a montage of his greatest accomplishments on :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philosopher Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I would give everyone a 6 except for Collins (for the goal), Walker and Albrighton (all our best moves came from that right flank) get 7. Sorry forgot Petrov and Carew where disappointing they get 5. Carew tried hard which is an improvement. Delfouneso should definitely have started ahead of Carew the boy is becoming a man and deserves a run of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
string28 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Well now gh needs to be backed we have seen with the right backing this could get our season on track again. Good performance today by the lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 A good game, plenty of chances at both ends, think we shaded it though. Would of been a good advert for the second city if there weren't so many empty seats. SHA fans are a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Delfouneso has been doing himself no harm in his recent cameos. Looks dangerous. A loan spell in the Championship would be great for him if we could get a striker in this window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cracker1234 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Sorry Carew, but you can get going now if you like. Downing should have buried his chance, Fonz was really unlucky for that not to go in "great fingertip save from the keep really"....We were unlucky today, but so were they. Glad we came away with a point as to get nothing out of that game would have been real bad for us. Centre of Mid just ain't doing it for me, I thought Petrov should have gone off, but Reo was maybe tired he was all over the place, but always second to the ball. Gabby worked hard in the first half, but faded in the second. Overall I think a point was about right, but we didn't look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheltenham_villa Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 good performances all round for me. Though Carew was effective and dangerous despite not playing for a while. Good to see him putting effort in and chasing down defenders. Still think we'd be a stronger side with Warnock, Clark is really growing on me though not a left back. Great character to come back and we looked much more solid at the back. Thanks Agent Ridgewell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NottingVilla Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Good match, decent performance. We certainly gave it a lot of effort. Collins and Dunne are still all over the shop though and it's causing us major problems. Their distribution from the back is embarrassing it's like watching a pair of comedy clowns at times. Also our midfielders namely Albrighton track back to aggressively we could have easily have conceded yet another penalty due to this! I've never been a fan of Carew but didn't think he was that bad today by his standards , at least he wasn't lazy. Gabby was anonymous apart from his shocking schoolboy miss. Albrighton/Reo/Walker all played well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoneyroo Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I thought going forward Walker looked great, had a few dodgy moments at the back, but still, his hard work down the right helped set up our goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Is it me or did we actually defend quite well? Their goal was more than lucky if you ask me, a shit free kick double deflation goal. We hit the woodwork a few times too which was unlucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Is there anyone who understands why Houlier plays Gabby on the left and Downing in the hole? Its bizzare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claret75 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Showed more fight today, but it wasn't great on the whole. Should've won, but brainless play let us down. We looked OK against a poor side. Should've played Gabby instead of Carew. Decent result though. Friedel 7/10 Clark 6/10 Collins 5/10 Dunne 7/10 Walker 7/10 Gabby 6/10 NRC 6/10 Petrov 5/10 Albrighton 5/10 Downing 6/10 Carew 5/10 Bannan 4/10 Delphouneso 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
