Saint_clark Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 And we've been here before :-( opposition park the bus across the goal, we put everyone forward, slightest error leads to a quick counter... Stating the obvious I spose, can't see properly on the box, do we need someone staying deeper at all times? The problem comes from not having anyone close enough to the players. The defensive line was fair enough, the midfield completely disappeared.
Um Bongo Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Half time. As normal, no end product. ****ing useless.
moonraker Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 There is no spirit, they pass it around but don't know what to do with it, Fonte is having a mare
St.Patrik Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Hate to say I told you so alright - to the tunes of the mighty The Hives
CanadaSaint Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I think Martin told Fonte to stay the wide man but he didn't, and that was the guy who scored.
thorpie the sinner Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Obviously without Lallana we are one dimensional!!!!!!!!! shocking first half, devoid of any ideas!! We don't need a new manager we need a @#@### miracle!
Robsk II Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Anyone see that Rochdale bloke with the hilarious facial hair? Snagglepuss northern c*nts.
the wedge Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 ****ing hell it's like watching zombies going through the motions. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!
westmidlandsaint Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 dont know if Lambert still isn't properly fit but he looks a shadow of last season. He's not winning the majority in the air like he used to he's not linking up particularly well either
SNSUN Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Attendance is 18,169. It'd be 18,170 had I not been ill, part of me is glad I'm not there though!
Ade Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Kelvin didn't cover himself in any glory. Should've done better for their goal. Having said that the performance is dire. Whoever comes in has a awful lot of work to do to turn this team into a winning one. We will struggle to make the playoffs at this rate.
bug187 Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 We'd have been better off sacking half the players than sacking Pardew.
latter day saint Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I think Martin told Fonte to stay the wide man but he didn't, and that was the guy who scored. noticed that after the 5th time they showed replay of the goal
SNSUN Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I hope there are some seriously good loans to bolster this team. The new manager has a hell of a job on his hands - Oxlade - Chamberlain our MOTM so far from what I've seen...
martyg1950 Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Booing them off aint a smart move either..... may make you feel better but ultimately counter productive. On the + side, Chamberlayne and Martin looking good prospects :-)
Deppo Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I think Martin told Fonte to stay the wide man but he didn't, and that was the guy who scored. Fonte should have stayed with his man but Martin just kept backing off. Looks like Fonte didn't trust Martins inexeperience to me. Fonte has been poor I think......lots of balls just walloped upfield to no-one. Alex OC has looked good and Scheinderlin started well. Lambert has been nowhere, doing nothing.
SuperMikey Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 The team's confidence looks absolutely non-existant, we really need a win here today otherwise the new guy coming in is going to have a f*cking tough job on his hands.
K,Billy's supersound Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 lambert done next to nothing again and puncheon cant seem to do anything right atall. very poor display i just hope martin isnt to badly hurt.
Saint_clark Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I hope there are some seriously good loans to bolster this team. The new manager has a hell of a job on his hands - Oxlade - Chamberlain our MOTM so far from what I've seen... The annoying thing is the players we have ARE very good for this league. I have no idea why we can't f*cking translate that into wins though.
madruss Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Half time. As normal, no end product. ****ing useless. That's the trouble though, it's not 'as usual'. Against Orient we created 6 or 7 gilt-edged chances...but through a combination of goalkeeper, post and luck we only got one goal. Today we've only created one such chance. Big difference
Saintandy666 Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 At the match now. We don't take our chances. Puncheon hogs. Lambert needs to be taken off as he is ineffective and unfit. That is all.
DG Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 You just get the feeling we could play well into the night without scoring. Rochdale fgs!
Red Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I think Martin told Fonte to stay the wide man but he didn't, and that was the guy who scored. this. Actually Fonte in the end dithered and did neither. He was at fault for the goal, and KD should have easily saved it! Very edgey - need a strong manager in quickly!
martyg1950 Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 The annoying thing is the players we have ARE very good for this league. I have no idea why we can't f*cking translate that into wins though. Too panicy in front of goal, doing all the right things to create loads of chances then not taking 1/2 second to think when it counts, we really should have had 2 or 3 1st 1/2
DrunkenSaint Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 ****ing hell it's like watching zombies going through the motions. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! wrong formation, we play so much better using the 451 formation, Connolly and lambert have never played well together.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 lambert done next to nothing again and puncheon cant seem to do anything right atall. very poor display i just hope martin isnt to badly hurt. Not true. Some lovely one twos, but some terrible shooting when he gets it back. one decent on target shot from him, but only him and chamberlain are actually trying to score.
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 We need a big second half or Cortese is going to get a hammering he will never forget.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I feel the damage AP has done may take a while to repair!!!
Deppo Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Puncheon is very decent on the ball but should never shoot from range and his crosses are too heavy
mcjwills Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Think we will now be playing against 10 defenders for the next 45 minutes, and from what I have seen we have not got a chance. Roll on stability.
buctootim Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 wrong formation, we play so much better using the 451 formation, Connolly and lambert have never played well together. Id go 451 too. Guly on and Lambert off.
Saint_clark Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I am loving this slow motion replay of Wilkins shouting at the players.
Saint_clark Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 wrong formation, we play so much better using the 451 formation, Connolly and lambert have never played well together. This is a lie, some of our best results last season came with those two up front.
martyg1950 Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Id go 451 too. Guly on and Lambert off. +1 Couldn't make things worse could it!
Liquidshokk Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Very frustrating here again. We have been holding them in their half but just cant break through. Bus. Parked. Much. Lambert has lost it. Puncheon shouldn't be in the side (not just based on this game) Thought it was only a matter of time before a goal came. Didn't realise it would be that end though.
saint lard Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 crap first half...Chamberlain trying very and has impressed.Lambert is not at the races.Martin was pulled out wide for the goal but should have been tracking the runner going into the area behind him.its all very flat......rumour doing the rounds that not only fonte handed in a transfer request but also connolly. sent by Nokia n900 with use of my fingers with a little bit of depression thrown in for good measure.

Yeah, he's sh*t now because he's not performing to his ridiculously high standards in an underperforming team, get rid.
Hatch Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 I never ever thought we would ever play Rochdale in the league, never mind be losing at home to them. load of shyte
buctootim Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Guly is Brazilian so he is bound to be good Hes an AMC, new and hopefully not yet been coached to be confused. Just what we need ATM
Glasgow_Saint Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 how pants is guly on a scale of 1-100
buctootim Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Yeah, he's sh*t now because he's not performing to his ridiculously high standards in an underperforming team, get rid. non-one said hes ****. hes clearly unfit and not performing tho. Big difference.
SB Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 How people can knock Puncheon I don't know! he's about the only one that looks like he gives a toss, yes some bad strikes of the ball on goal, but also the only one that has had a clear shot, and produced good link up play/
Saint_clark Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 How miserable do our fans look Cameraman just picked out a right fitty, anyone know her?
