Indeed. And lumped it aimlessly to parts of the pitch where Keane wasn't. He wasn't the only one though, so I agree if that was your point.
They have Ibe and Wilshire arguably better than our players. The rest I would argue are on the level. We certainly shouldn't be conceding 6 off Bournemouth. That is just ****.
Stanislas, and a couple of defenders at least. Josh King coming on was a better option than we often have.
It's not Keanes fault, but we shouldn't even have signed him. He's not capable of delivering goals in this league. As for the managers reason for selecting him
Yes. Joins Liverpool's 6-1 in 2009/10. Merseyside was an unhappy hunting ground for us that season as Everton beat us 5-1.
Shambolic defending .. clueless from the start .. lightweight in midfield .. and zero up front .. it's taken a full 8 games for the organisational work put in by Brucy to totally unravel .. heavy defeats with ten men against quality opposition is one thing .. sadly Bournemouth were made to look like world beaters .. embarassing
I was in touch with Filey Tiger (on FB) and after the game he'd seen, he said it was like watching 11 players who'd met for the first time just before kick-off.
I watched the game in Pearsons & it looked like the TV only buffered when we had the ball! & it speeded up when they had it!
I don't even think ibe is that good. Tricky but not a lot of end product. We just left Elmo on his own against him with no support. Second half kicked off and we did the same. Should have doubled up on him. aye we had a long and interesting chat with sterling about it didn't we.
Few simple facts and home truths Elmo isn't good enough so why all the bleating when posters thought Brucie wanted him Maguire is too slow and cumbersome and clearly out of his depth at Prem level Livermore is not good enough in central midfield - his passing is poor - he surprised me how effective he was in the back four - he should play there ahead of Maguire Diomante isn't good enough for the Prem Maloney isn't good enough for the Prem Hernandez doesn't put a shift and is disruptive if not picked or substituted - the £20 million valuation is a joke and was only there as part of the sale valuation due diligence And no mention of Junior or Meyler who are Championship at best Yesterday was a farce but reflected a lack of investment in the transfer window, Brucie decision to get rid of most of the defence twelve months ago and not replace them - Macca Rosie Chester Figueroa and Brady except for Ofubajo and arguably Clucas We finished a poor fourth last season and ran up some horrible performances - many as bad as yesterday What do you expect Phelan to do with the mess he was left with - the team needs major surgery and all he was given was a few elastoplasts
It wasn't interesting, you were tediously slagging him off before he'd even kicked a ball. He's still barely kicked a ball after yesterday's performance. I wouldn't have started him ahead of Abel, but after such a turgid team performance, what were you expecting him to do up front by himself? Nobody actually bothered to play him the ball?
Strange you were saying these are good players and it was B word(your only ****ing word) who was stopping rthem playing. Bruces decision to get rid of Brady Chester!!Arf Move on stop mentioning Bruce. Comment on what actually happens now this season. The selection was ****. Elmo was left on his own with no support for the whole game. Phelan chose to bring in Weir and Keane. And paid ****ing decent money for them. Phelan paid 13 million quid for Mason. WTF for.
Nope thats a lie and you know it. Me and glps whole argument was he wasnt what was needed and you ****ing know it. Same as Weir. another CM player wasnt needed. The odds on a player not being good enough for a PL club were pretty high when he's barely played for years and then only at Championship level. Where he didnt pull up any trees.
