Best 45 minutes we have played all season. We needed a goal.

St Eve · March 30, 2014, 02:17:54 PM

We are fighting for everything. All that is missing is a goal

ChesterTheTabby · March 30, 2014, 02:18:14 PM

Dembele should have put that in, but Howard has kept them in it

AllyWhite · March 30, 2014, 02:19:50 PM

Yes, TBH I'm loving the grit and aggression that we're putting in. Dembele is doing a good job as well, considering that he is only 17

Lots of good pressing. Richardson and Holtby working their socks off. Good breaks by Riise. Only Sidders and Kvist looking a bit off the pace. Moussa II looks the real deal. Solid defensively too. Can we do it again in the 2nd half is the question.

ChesterTheTabby · March 30, 2014, 03:15:57 PM

We just can't win. We just really cannot win.

No what is missing is a back 5 that can defend and stop letting in 3 a game

Defending starts with the forwards Roy Hodgson used to say. Those times seem a long long time ago now.

Allowing our only forward to leave on loan and replacing him with kiddies. Plus our usual defensive frailties. Those incharge could not have planned it better for us to face relegation.

We can play well in bits but we simply are not good enough and the sooner we can rebuild the better. Although I fear the same people who brought us to this will stay at the club.

Correct me if I'm wrong and I apologise if I am, but were you not one of the 'get berba out of our club' advocates?

Case of careful what you wish for I guess.

I don't think we'd be any better off with berba, for what it's worth.

Yes I was but on the understanding we would have a replacement. I did say we needed a target player. It seems very odd to rid yourself of a forward who cannot perform and replace him with kids in a relegation battle. Not sure Bent or Rodders would have done any better today and am not blaming the forwards alone. But bizarre decision.

News:

By far the better side.
