What part of you gushing over their style and telling me I should be happy to accept a loss to that bunch of **** tards isn't supporting them?
We really should have scored. Ridiculous luck to be 4-0 without them ever really creating anything but it's like we're trying to find ways not to score sometimes. How many crosses and set pieces didn't beat the first man? We looked so dangerous from the ones that did nest the first man so why were 90% of them so poor? What was Powell doing dragging it wide with a clear sight of goal or Odubajo to his left. We just **** up the simplest things when we're in.and around the box. Yes it's "only" the cup but it's indicative of why we aren't scoring in the league. We can't keep blaming luck or 'these things happen' when we turn down so many opportunities to score at the other end.
If we play attacking football? Against one of the best teams in the country? Why haven't we thought of that before? Oh right. Because we aren't good enough to go toe to toe with Arsenal. We can hold them at bay and try nick a goal from a set piece, but we don't have the quality to match them like that, it's why we set up to play like we did. They were wobbly because they lost their two CBs. But even without them and Ramsey, they still beat us 4-0. I find it unbelieveable I'm having to connect the dots for you here...
Love to see where I'm 'gushing over their style'. It's quite common ****ing knowledge that Arsenal play pretty decent possession based football, you ****ing tool. Like I said - accusing someone of supporting the other team = pathetic and sad.
But it's arsenal, we shouldn't expect to play well. Just smile and take it. Why was Powell played so deep for periods? He was as deep as huddlestone at some points. If he's meant to be here as a striker he should have been sat off diomande and long balls quickly up the pitch should have been laid off to him.
We looked better than them for most of the second half. Aluko and Diomande were getting the ball in forward positions and we had them penned back. We were incredibly unlucky to go down to 2-0 but we should have equalised by then. Their defence was shocking.
Says the guy jumping at every chance to have a crack at me to the point he defended bringing on Hernandez only to back track to defend not purring him on. Get your red and white scarf out, they might still win that title with their unstoppable possession.
To be fair if their keeper drops the ball over the line and its 3 points we need to take anything at the moment..
I'd wager that's because they were 2-0 up and were happy to soak up our pressure. We looked better once we switched to a 4-4-2, but we didn't make the most of our chances, that one from Powell was criminal.
We'll never hit a barn door again if we play like we did tonight. Thankfully Bruce doesn't seem so piss scared of some of the teams in the championship such as MK Dons. What you wouldn't give to hve Browny in our dugout tonight, we'd probably have lost anyway but at least we'd hve gone out and had a go and seen a team actually trying to win rather than actively looking to limp out to a loss.
Bruce will probably sit back against mk because they're a good side. They beat United in the cup once you know. I wonder if their fans were told not to dream of beating United because they're a million times better and they were just a ****ty league one side.
