I really can't stand bringing all 11 players back into the box when defending corners, it goes against everything I believe in,
Adkins should not have singled him out but let's see what he is made of now, will he take the attitude of I will show you , and put a couple of centre forwards in the stand on Saturday , or will it be the more likely modern player reaction of sulking and going for a pedicure to get over it
Pretty certain it was the 1-0 win over Boro near the end of the 12/13 season. That Faye performance was immense.
It was a funny game last night. The whole team were so poor I think people saw different things good and bad. I thought Grosicki looked like he might be the only threat for about the first 30 mins, even though it was only in flashes, but then he went missing and didn't look interested at all It is fair to say I'm not a fan of Henriksen in general, although I did comment that he seemed to be having a better game than usual in patches, but I do find him frustrating (or the job he's being asked to do...or both) Before last night I would have said Larsson and Irvine together in a 4-4-2 but I though Irvine was really poor last night, he couldn't control anything, so I'm not sure TBH
Why does Grosicki get referred to as 'Turbo'? That implies that he's quick - I've seen grass grow quicker. He's so pedestrian at times it's unbelievable. If he's heralded as the next best player for Poland after Lewandowski - then they are in the ****.
If you are playing Millwall (Similarly to Bolton away) you need to win the battle, win the headers and get stuck in. Meyler was needed last night, whether it was right back or centre mid I would of played him. Some games you need to accept he will give a few balls away as he will make sure he leaves a mark on a few players early on.
No preconceived ideas from me. I've been pretty supportive of him but he's is never in a million years a centre midfield player. As glp says they dominated us. Won all the battles in cm. I thought Larsson was crap as well. They put their foot in, we didn't. Until Mazuch came on and greegsy doesn't count.
The owners bought a two million quid left back. Bad luck that he's been injured so much. Not that he's shown much anyway.
Apparently the sunland fans were quite respectful towards Sir Steve Bruce. Maybe to do with his family problems.
