Soft penalty BUT you cannot have your hands allover a player in the box. Especially when that player is the Olympic gold medalist in diving!
still loads of this game to go. hopefully we can keep the ball a bit better second half and have a good go at them
Whickham on the wing isnt working. We don't have an outlet, strangling our game. Get the greek lad on
I'm sorry but Fletcher is holding nothing up front. Needs to be changed, Wickham up top causing more problems. Hoy Buckley on or Gomez and shift Seb to the wing.
On another note - I know man utd got beat today but I still think they have enough quality to avoid relegation...
BBC have it down as a soft penalty. The player was looking for it, these refs always seem to have the red mist first few games. Seems WBA are all over us towards the end of the first half.
Wondergoal from Cats. Never a penalty, in that situation you don't fall dead weight, he tucked his legs up and let himself drop, poor decision. I don't think we're working hard enough in the middle of the park, WBA are pressing quick and we just look like we can't be arsed. More urgency from larsson and Rodwell needed in closing the ball down and make it more difficult for them to push into our final third. Fletcher just isn't working hard enough, if you need to come deeper come deeper, AJ and Wickham will make runs ahead of him. Think fletch just expects the ball to come to him, wish he'd make more effort to run down their defence. Defended well in most part but WBA the better team for me. What goal from Catts!
Gus said before the match our goal this season is survival and anybody who wants european football is kidding themselves. So why are people bleating on so much because were not going to win the league for gods sake and we'll get beat plenty of times coming up.
The ball is just bouncing off Fletcher, take him off and get Wickham inside. Bring on a proper winger, Mavrias or Buckley.
Who's banging on about European football? Yes survival but not on the par of our last two seasons ffs.
