Of course they are, Hernandez works like a ****ing cart horse it's just not happening for him at the minute. Only Messi doesn't go through rough patches of form. Akpom is lightweight to play the way we do and Diomande just doesn't look great. Time for Aluko to be given another chance I know many have written him off but he can be **** hot and was just the type of player we needed towards the end who can duck and spin around and wriggle his way through tight spaces.
he made square passes all night, it was those people on the flanks that actually tried to make things happen, first half alone Snodgrass put in some stunning balls, Thudd made one tackle all night, do you think its not coincidence that when Thudd plays, opposing teams target him ? Brum manager has already alluded to the fact they target the areas of space either side of Thudd, quite simply because he isn`t mobile enough, don`t get me wrong, there were worse performances then his, Clucas and Diame to name a couple, but with the talent he possesses i expect more from him.
I was waiting for you to get off your commode you ****ing ponce. How about you face up, instead of hiding behind your amstrad keyboard.
Still one of the best passing teams in this league,but that's not enough without goals. Long way to go yet,things can change and few teams are winning every week. Just need to start out scoring our opponents and keep it tight. Simple as that really.
Bruce would say that wouldn't he ? What was wrong with Bruce's tactics tonight ? 22 shots at goal against a big club who are pushing for a Play Off place and enjoying a decent run themselves, yet we pulverised them without getting that vital break, like they got. It's a narrow 1-0 defeat and it is disappointing and frustrating to watch but be honest who was the better team tonight ? Did we lose because they outplayed us ? No.
You know what….. I get it now, I ought to have recognised it. …. you're an attention seeker... So!!!…… just for you i'll ignore it, ignore you.. move along!!!
They're over the moon on the Borough forums. They freely admit we were all over Brum and yet somehow lost. They can't believe their luck.
Frustrated after tonight, only read the last 2 pages so this might all have been said already... Their goal, Dawson puts that clear like he should and it doesn't happen, that was where we got in trouble. Diame was poor and has been for months, I've said a few times I'd have him out the side. Clucas should have a hat trick, if not 4 tonight, missed some great chances. Diomande is the worst player I've seen for years. Even his goal he knew nothing about. Aplomb scores a hat trick and then is nowhere to be seen. If we're going to make cup changes surely it's so they can earn a spot? If that doesn't what does? I'm still annoyed I'm about to spend a weekend in Birmingham but won't get to the game because of bastard Sky.
So ****ing what. They wont go up in the top 2. Burnley will finish top so theyd be better worrying about them. Us or Brighton for second
Diame was motm 2 games ago against Ipswich. Players like him you have to expect he's not always on it.
Massive mistake not signing Andre Gray. £6.5m for a proven striker. We could have had most of that money simply from not signing some of the players we have. Maloney/Diomande/Dusan/Taylor with fees and wages for those four who haven't played much at all. I'd rather have had a genuine goal threat.
So ****ing what? Here's ****ing what: the Borough fans on those forums who watched the game give a more objective and positive opinion about our quality than the UEFA Level 3 Academy Special Ones on here who 'let off steam' when we lose.
For once i totally agree. We never ever seem to have a prolific striker. We,d be strolling it with him
Its the amount he isn't on it that's so annoying. He has it all to be the best player in this league, but he's nowhere near this year. Great point on the unused players, there's what £4.5million in fees there? There's only really Maloney who anyone would consider for a starting place from those, and they would be a minority.
And yet he was utterly gash against us and had to be taken off at half time. The grass is always greener, eh?
