Yes, completely agree. Rutter is not a centre forward but Piroe is and has stats that show he's one of the best strikers in this division. So why the fcuk did Farke play Piroe behind Rutter? Makes no sense.
Just heard Paul Merson talking about Chelsea inability to play against teams set to defend and he was quite scathing. If I hadn't known who he was talking about, could've easily believed he was describing our game today.
Can’t agree regards Shackleton, I thought he was as good as Ampadu. Yes he’s not the left footed left back we ideally wanted, but he did his job effectively, and was one of the few players to inject a bit of pace into our forward play.
Yep and in that time showed more in 8-10 minutes than i saw from any of the others in the 20 minutes i saw of them, i can only comment on what i saw, admittedly i was possibly way off the mark over the entire match, but for me should be a starter next game, with piroe further up top taking any half chances that come his way.
And in other news City have won the pl today so about 34 games remaining to decide euro places and relegation. Joke league
The pl is a load of bollix in so many ways mate. Done with it myself unless we go back to it again and I’m forced to watch it again
People saying we were dominant and they parked the bus. They were better than us and they just pumped it long. They had more shots on target and had the better chances. Our front 3 of Gnonto, Summerville and Rutter just ****ed about with the ball and gave it away. Piss poor.
