I've far more sense of character to be swayed by what is 'popular', after all, plenty watch reality TV and post on twitter and I find them ****e too. It also doesn't alter the fact that many fans of teams in the Prem, find it a crap experience compared to the other leagues, and many clubs struggle financially as a consequence, despite the crock of gold you allude to. Many TV viewers may like it. Football purists tend not to.
even if we go on to win this has been shocking took us 71 minutes to take smith off and to go down one v 10 men to make any other changes and actually attack they give away a penalty and get a man sent off, and we still don't up the tempo until they scored rosies had a ****ing shocker today
We're being more cautious to prevent conceding, I don't think we're avoiding attacking, but we're more steady. I don't like it, but that's what I think we're doing.
'We'? Not many clubs have any of it left having tried to live the dream to satisfy the fickle masses, which is a more honest place to leave it.
When he gets the defence sorted someone in his multitude of staff needs to loo at the next stat... 15 shots... 1 on target....
Definitely 2 points dropped today. Can't be missing penalties in close games. They've scored from pretty much their only chance too. Bollocks.
That was absolute ****e. And top of the list of ****eness is Rosie. Got it badly wrong. Shows he doesn't have some magic touch or formula. Baffling. So so disappointing and frustrating.
He didn't though. I'm just happy we didn't lose. We know we're **** up front and struggle at home but its another point to build on
Nothing more to add really. If we can't win that against a poor Sunderland side on the day after two gifts from the ref then there's only one way we're heading
Not sure I agree st, when you look at our shots on target stats etc l, our goals scored and the fact we are 21st. Suggests we don’t create enough and certainly don’t score enough. As bilic said “he knew we wouldn’t hurt them” I think we need to improve both attacking and defending, without been cautious
Is it just me or is Oscar not actually that good His overall game is up and down, his touch is often lacking and he now misses chance after chance
