Saint Without a Halo Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Tadic was so active early on but has hardly touched the ball since the1st half hour!
Edmonton Saint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Players, fans, managers alike. Everyone's heads have dropped. Because the game was there for the taking, and we just sat back and let United back into it without them even having to break sweat. Very frustrating.
BotleySaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Players, fans, managers alike. Everyone's heads have dropped. We have a weakened version of last years team out there. So it is to be expected we have lost our optimistic bounce.
Mr X Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Koeman is good at deciding a game plan but sheite at tactics
St Marco Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Terrible team. New signings have been **** mostly.
Edmonton Saint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 And there we have it. Tactical mastery from Koeman today.
Batman Posted 20 September, 2015 Author Posted 20 September, 2015 way too easy neville summing it up well has no idea why we have changed it around so much
Batman Posted 20 September, 2015 Author Posted 20 September, 2015 get pelle off he has reverted back to doing nothing
InvictaSaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 ****s sake - at least LOOK like you're trying. Everybody just watching and waiting for them to score!
SaltashSaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 The simple fact is, if you defend deep, you invite pressure on yourselves. **** poor defending and no guidance from the manager.
Viking Warrior Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 We have been poor this last 10 minutes
Wrensup Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Why are we standing off them so much... WHERE IS JUANMI!!!!
JackFrost Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Because the game was there for the taking, and we just sat back and let United back into it without them even having to break sweat. Very frustrating. This. We literally just gave them control of the game
Edmonton Saint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 I am just waiting for the inevitability that Rooney will end his goal drought this afternoon..
Saxon Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 way too easy neville summing it up well has no idea why we have changed it around so much It's really weird. Why have we changed around so much? Why did we stop exploiting them the same we we had been in the first 30 minutes? Just bizarre. Mind you, an offside goal and a colossal f*ck up from Yoshida to gift two goals doesn't help. But jesus christ. Its just annoying that it always feels like against big teams in big games we can start well, and then we're always the masters of our own demise. Anyway its still the beginning of the season, its a long way to go yet! We have good players, a good team and a good manager, we just need to settle down a bit and stick to something and we'll get there.
Wrensup Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Everyone! Remember what you say now, if it's negative you're a dumb ass clueless bedwetter and most importantly it's okay we got VVD EVERYTHING will be fine.
BotleySaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 I think its a case of however many Utd want now. Just catch our slow defence on the counter.
CanadaSaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Forget the purple patch at the start. Koeman's starting line up, with Yoshida in over Soares, surrendered the home advantage and left us to attack on the counter, if we could get hold of the ball. He picked a "pinch a point" away team with no overlap attacking width on either side. As much as I like him, Koeman's starting line-up decisions are beginning to really frustrate me.
melmacian_saint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 People have said this before and I agree...we will learn much more about Koeman and the ill-named Black Box this year than last. Last year most of our signings were like for like and even with a number of the core still around we ran out of steam. This year we had to come up with something slightly new and we again signed like for likes without changing the way we play to accommodate them, only we now have figured out we can't play like we did and are starting from scratch with the season started. I guess we'll be fine as long as we beat the Norwiches, Swanseas and Bournemouths at home and beat the 0-0 away draw record.
Edmonton Saint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 After looking like a world beater last week, Seems our coaching has gotten Van Dijk down to the level of a poor mans Richard Dryden this week..
lloydie Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Yoshida and VVD look poor today. Our obsession with passing back is bizzare. Why Koeman changed tactics to how we were in the first 30 mins is mental too but Soares should have started over Yoshida at RB.
Saint Billy Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 I suppose the clappies will start removing their rose tinted specs now!
Batman Posted 20 September, 2015 Author Posted 20 September, 2015 Martina is really a joke signing I will be stunned if we dont have anyone at his level from the younger lads
lloydie Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Why did we sign Juanmi? No idea, would be nice to see him play at some point.
maxi_sopez Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Going forward has been more disappointing than defence. This season is going to be very average
InvictaSaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Martina isn't even league 2 standard. Why the hell is he anywhere near our first team? Shocking.
sfc1976 Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Hollowed out little feeder club, with those who are left that are any good just waiting for their moves. Pressing game dead, as are the days when we had full backs that pushed up and got in behind. Rather have Martina Hingis at left back than that streak of ****
Delmary Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Yoshida and Martina are not good enough for league
melmacian_saint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Van Dijk is no Toby. True, but he is no Hooiveld either, so we should be fine. The problem is more on the FB section- I wonder what Koeman thinks of Cedric to start Yoshida over him. And Martina, well...Bertrand should be coming soon.
Saint Without a Halo Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Martina is another Danny Fox at this level
UpweySaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Always expected Utd to do us but bugger me we look a bit lost. Sort of hoping we get our share of luck over the next few games and the likes of Bertrand and Clasie can make the difference. In other news, the Utd fans are a bunch of smug c**ts.
shurlock Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 True, but he is no Hooiveld either, so we should be fine. The problem is more on the FB section- I wonder what Koeman thinks of Cedric to start Yoshida over him. And Martina, well...Bertrand should be coming soon. FB is not the reason we're losing the game; but hey simpletons simplify and scapegoat.
Mr X Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Koeman is to blame for this one I'm afraid weird starting line up & very poor to change a system that was working for the first 25 mins
Saint Billy Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Virgils finding out about the prem I see !
BotleySaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 Training session pace from our players
CanadaSaint Posted 20 September, 2015 Posted 20 September, 2015 FB is not the reason we're losing the game; but hey simpletons simplify and scapegoat. Leaving aside the needless insult aimed at those who see it differently to you, don't you think that we were set up to absorb pressure and attack on the break rather than use the full backs to supplement our width in a more attacking style? And if not, where do you think it has broken down today?
