Obviously Michu has to be up there as the buy of the season with his goal scoring record, but Chico can't be bloody far behind. Immense again so far
Good half considering we are playing with 10 men. Michu off the bar. Chico is superb. Anybody we put on the field instead of Dyer at half time has to be an upgrade.
I would be happy with a point and will shag the missus if we get all 3. if we lose though she will get the belt..
Missed the first half but will be watching the second half. Judging on your points so far I surmise: Chico = good dyer = Poor
We've definitely been slacker with the passing of late. A sacrifice to the gods of counter attacking football maybe? Also losing Allen makes a difference, him and Leon together could pass circles around most midfields. Still it's more exciting under the new system!
Soft passing has nothing to do with style, it is an individual skill. Passes cannot be under hit at any level and that's what we're doing - shame on us, we need to sharpen it up and hit the ball.
All in all, not a bad half for us. They've had most of the play but we've had half chances on the break. Agree that Dyer is poor and Chico looks like he's playing for his international place. Michu must be cursing. He must be desperate to impress but we are not attacking enough to produce any chances for him - brilliant chip from him though. Well, we've got options in Routs and Danny plus JdG could come on for Kemy or maybe Ki and really work for 45 minutes. Fellaini is a real pain. We never seem to be able to handle him and he's setting up all sorts of plays and chances for them. Perhaps Chico could give him a dig!!
