And I hate to say it after defending him so strongly midweek, but Ade doesn't look too interested....
I'm also not enjoying the commentary bias espn have going on at the moment... All praise for everton and we are the villains.
He's running about a lot, but there's absolutely no service from the midfield and there's a gang of Everton players surrounding the front of their box. Every time that we go forward, everyone's in the middle.
Harry shouldnt be playing your best player out of position. Modric should be int he middle. Everton look solid. Could be hard for you to win this although you might geta point
What's Sandro doing that for? Ridiculously soft way to give away a dangerous free-kick and Baines is dangerous with them, especially against us.
His first touch - when he does get the ball - has been awful for the most part. Agree that he's not getting the service mind you. Too many things wrong at the moment
Why did we not buy a winger? we've had the same problem for about 3years... lennon/bale out/off-form and we struggle.
harry has lost his marbles he hasnt gpt a clue how to pick the team unless the team picks itself when full strength
If I was harry I would drop bale for a match or two. He seems to be getting very cocky. Yes confidence is good but he is overdoing it imo.
Harry's never been tactically astute though. He often makes what apear to be rookie mistakes. playing bale on the right, lennon on the left sometimes, modders on the left, creating a pettern of play relying on width with only 2wingers in the squad, playing 442 away from home in the champs league, playing 442 away at arsenal, playing sandro and pletikosa against the goons for their first game with bently on the left.....hmmm I like Harry, but i'd love to see what a really good manager could do with this squad, especially if there really is 50m to spend.
Would cost you short term but long term it would be good. Like fergie did with rooney for the match they lsot to blackburn. Cost them 3 points but it will gain them many points over time.
I am ****ing sick of seeing bale on the right. He offers nothing. He has no confidence to run at defenders, which is arguably one of his best attributes. He has no right foot so defenders know exactly how to mark him and basically cancel him out of the game. But as a result, it pulls another player out of position, usually modric who is obviously our key play maker!!! What his Harry thinking? 1-0 down against away at everton is going to be very difficult to come back from, despite a good history of results against them. We make life very difficult for ourselves sometimes. - getting beaten by a better side on the day, I can deal with. Screwing ourselves before we have even started, I find very difficult to take and we've done it on a few occasions this season. The midfield is all wrong. - Defoe is on fire at the moment and he's not going I get a look in unless we change things up... Pronto!! Infuriating!!
