Good post. All the knee jerk stuff during the game is too hot headed, too emotional (apart from mine obvs). The more earnest posters posters have kept their powder dry, assessed the situation and responded in posts such as this.
Before you make yourself look a total **** (I'm trying to help you, Chazz), are you actually at the game tonight - you know - the one you hold such strong opinions on - or are you watching a rectangular thingymebob with changing colours and things? Don't worry about 'getting into a bore off' with me, it just finished.
What a ****. So living up there makes you an expert on him. Must be closer to ground eh. You tried to be a clever **** cos he missed a pen and made out that's a sign of him in decline. Desperate to be knowledgeable. Just bore off
Problem is because he is ****e defensively, he needs help from the winger, as teams are targetting him. For all Jarrod's qualities helping his right back isn't one of them. Same the other side, Growiski doesn't help out. We don't have any alternatives out wide. I just think 3 5 2 would expose full backs even more. Tottenham use full backs who are better at attacking than defending. They play 4 at the back, but with a central midfielder who drops in when they bomb forward. Defence was worryingly woeful tonight, but little help from midfield. It was surprising he went with that central midfield, though he presumably thought Meyler would be tired.
No, do tell us Fez how many live Sunderland games have you seen to give us the 'quality' assessment you have on Larsson?
He's winding it up being patronizing as he likes to doto try and appear superior, loving a long long arguement mate. He knows as much about Larsson as we do. Well less cos we've actually watched him and will be watching him.
Or an extra centre half. Henriksen was dropping in between Daws and Hector, but it wasn't working as Henriksen simply isn't a defensive minded midfielder.
