Liverpool lost last night though, despite playing well for long periods of the game. So I assume they are ****, their manager is useless, and their owners are a disaster for the club.
Well played Ross - two good goals, two headers well saved, almost scored by pressing the keeper, another shot blocked, and his overall play was good. Keep it up!
Indeed - a clear indicator that there's a player in there. His confidence must be nice and high this morning, so I'll keep everything crossed that he builds on it. Really good performance from him over all.
Morning. Nice to wake up with that winning feeling Walked in front door around 2:15 which not bad at all in the end. Thought we started the game well yesterday but our intensity dropped somewhat after about 15 minutes and we became rather passive for the rest of the first half. Quarshie got done far too easily for their goal and was a poor one to give away. Tidy finish though. Thought Fellows looked bright and was surprised he came off. Azaz had a few touches of class but once again the game passed him by for large periods, really need to find a way to get him involved more as feels vital to making us more creative. Stewart was a real handful as he was on Saturday and also took his goals really well. The second was even better then it looked in the ground and actually looks better every time I see it. Did think he should have come off earlier though as looked absolutely ****ed. Can't see him starting Saturday after the shifts he's put in the last two. Thought we rode our luck a bit towards the end and should have tried harder for the third but ultimately teams do have to ride their luck at times and it'll do our confidence good to see a narrow win out. It was frustrating to watch us playing long balls after to Archer when he came on as it just cheaply gave up possession again and again. We need to find ways of getting up the pitch whilst under pressure without a target man up top as it'll cost us at some point. Overall, great away day. The coach was spot on and we did both journeys in decent time. Matt and Reuben were both proper sound and happy to chat for much of both journeys. Had decent chats with Franny and Beatts at the pub pre game too - nice touch for midnite to buy everyone a drink as well imo and want expecting that. I hadn't realised that they sponsor Sheffield United too which is why they did it and are doing the same for their fans in the return. Good on them.
Blimey were some unhappy people in here yesterday, I didn't see it anywhere near as bad. I'm supposed to be being productive today with my day off but might have to go and give Saintsweb a read.
I read the half-time posts again and I think I can hold my head up high (for once). Basically I said the performance was quality and that Stewart is a monster. I'm meltdown-proof at the moment.
That's putting it mildly, the tea lady can't make a good cuppa and the car park attendant is selling crack to the academy players.
