P3te Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Why is Bowery in there? He has done nothing all half. I understand that Lambert wants to catch Stoke on the counter, but why not put in N'Zogbia who is fast and not a League 1 footballer? Done nothing apart from help make the goal, you mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa87 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Just need the rub of the green a bit more. Weimann was unlucky, but got knows what Gabby was doing. Stoke have been woeful, but cannot see them being as poor second half. Benteke not in the game. I would take Bowrey off and maybe bring another cm in.

mikeyp102 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Good first half, shame we couldn't get a second as could really see the stoke heads dropping if we had.. Gabby having a good half, even though that dive was bad. More of the same second half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) Stoke are a very poor side, i'd be disappointed if we only came away with a point.. Been much better of the 2 teams. Edited April 6, 2013 by AVFCforever1991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I saw was him trap a throw in then pass it to Lowton who did all the work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsh, Czechlad. Bowery's got limited on-ball quality, but to say he's done nothing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyavfc Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Keep Bowery on! Why fix what isn't broken. Maybe he hasn't offered alot but were working well as a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AXD Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 i like the bench for the first time since long. Meaning that we have some players on there who can come on in the second half and do something. bent to score a goal, Nzog to play possession, sylla, to strengthen our defence. It wasn't always like this this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notmyjob Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Bowery had a few nice touches in first 30 mins or so. He's not looked out of his depth imo. Wish Weimann had buried his chance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamdog Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Bowery just doesn't look like a confident young man to me. Overall wekre doing fine but early second-half goal would settle my stomach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphouneso Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Zog or Bent on for Bowery at some point. I don't think Bowery's been dreadful but he's slowing our attacks down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsh, Czechlad. Bowery's got limited on-ball quality, but to say he's done nothing... Honestly maybe I am being a bit too harsh but Bowery seems a little lost and he doesn't know what to do when he has the ball. Too indecisive and that could hurt us.

DiegoD Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Hopefully Benteke can get a bit mroe involved this half. I'd feel a lot more confident if he gets going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphouneso Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 A second goal in the first 10 minutes would make me feel a lot more comfortable when I switch over to the National for 5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
