First couple of games, no decisions to make, we do well. SInce then when there's been options and decisions to make, and seriously, you can shove "free hits" up your arse, we've looked poor. A game we should expect to be competitive in, we've not turned up. This is down to Phelan. He's clearly not cut out for this role, he should **** off the Villa and be Brucies number 2.
I'm struggling to see past Clucas & Livermore for defensive midfielders - are you counting Mason, Maloney & Snodgrass as ''defensive?''
Shocking tackle by Snoddy for a penalty. He's lucky he wasn't sent off tbh. Should by rights have been his second yellow at best.
Possibly cos Eeyore ****ed up the transfers - Brucey leaves and no money till the last gasp/48 hours?
Yep Handballs reckless in the box. Scream lack of discipline. We need two on at half time. I'm afraid he may have already lost Abel tho.
Im sorry Stan we sigend two players. Just the wrong two. We needed a RB and LB everyone knew. Well i say everyone . Me and Glp kept saying itothers where happy with Keane and Weir as i recall
Harsh, but fair, comment - over-run in midfield and shambolic defending. Dawson (and Odubajo) can't get back quick enough.
A bit of perspective here. This is Bournemouth away. Nobody should have expected anything from this one and many teams will come here ship a lot more than this in. It's free hit, our season starts next week.
Weir wasn't even signed as a first team player, he's only the ****ing bench because we haven't got anyone else, there's no way he's going to end up on the pitch.
Phelan isn't good enough for the role totally agree but the club is not prepared for the Premier league and that's down to the owners
