Stoke City v Leeds Utd Match Thread

very poor 35 mins so far. we can't pass for shyte. once we do get behind the midfield theres chances but we can't.

 

We have not been in this game at all so far

 

Sort this ****e out Farke

 

Refs had a bet on us to win. He's given every decision to us.

 

It's a numbers game

 

What a dull first half.. let’s hope a m transformation happens in the 2nd half.. otherwise I fear the worst ffs

 

Anthony and Gruver seem very nervous

 

they just not letting our key players turn and are on them like a leech. all stokes work is in midfield and its working they aren't pushing forward just not letting us play and getting all the 2nd balls and always first to our poor passing.

 

just aswell they are shyte upfront coz we are hanging on at the minute

 

that free kick summed up the first half

 

hands up outbattled that first half and only one team looked like scoring.

 

We’re lacklustre every time we wear that all blue kit. It’s jinxed.

Better than that pink ****e I suppose but we’re useless in that as well

Bring back the all yellow

 

That was dreadful.

… we’re a second half team

 

Why do we work so hard to pass backwards?
Why do we take 99% of our free kicks backwards?
Why leave out Summerville when he’s just scored two and you would think have sky high confidence?
Why wreck young Archie’s confidence by playing him out of position?
That was the poorest 45 minutes of football I’ve seen in many a year?

 

Go 3-5-2 like the second half at Norwich.

Park the bus in their half.

 

Archie is no RB and Gnonto looks uncomfortable on that side, Anthony has given the ball away far too much, he looks well off the pace.

I like Farke but we had Byram, Gray and Gnonto playing out of position and it told, we looked very unbalanced. I’m most bewildered by why we have Gray at RB

After 15 minutes I just hoped we went in 0-0 at HT so changes could be made, more so to the set up and positions

 

Agreed, Farke will shake this lot up, Also Stoke cannot keep this pressing up all second half, if we score one it could end up three or four nil to us. Key is scoring one and we haven't looked like scoring at all so far.

 

Beckford doesn't half talk some shyte.

 

Thank God that half is over
The team seems completely disjointed. Farke needs to sort this for the second half
