Yep, but its only the fa cup.
I've gone back to not giving a fuck about the cup
It's ok, I'm convinced we are on for the league and champions league again.
yay
Cup games are all about progressing and whether we scored two goals or played okay for the most part it doesn't matter as we are out of the competition. We looked all over the shop defensively and i wouldn't say anyone played well in the defence today.
Yeah, unfortunately William's hasn't got the turn of pace for the Premier league. It's a real shame, but he's been found out more than once.
He's a kid and he's learning. You don't 'decide' about that straight off.
I thought he was the better of the two young defenders we had in that team though.
'Found out' is really the phrase of the weekend. More than a few on here get found out every hour.
I haven't decided anything, just going on the evidence of this game. We were never secure on his side of the defence.
You seem to be having a go at Klopp quite a lot recently.
Line of sight. Thiago and one of their players.
Thiago also was a shithouse who ducked.
Still should have done much better
No big deal. Yeah better after Bobby pumped a bit of life into us. Some poor defending but we can concentrate on the big 2 now.
His lack of pace is his biggest issue - the mistakes I"m not fussed about, those happen. But he gets beaten for pace every game, and he'll need time to learn to be a better reader of the game like Hyypia if he's to make it here. He could do with a loan imo to play week in, week out - but we don't have that luxury.
You can be better at reading the game and your positioning
He could be good at a team who don't play a high line. Not all defenders need to be lightning
Its really worse knowing that its all just down to money. If we had it we'd be fine.
I am frustrated by the fact the most important spark plug for our attack was needlessly risked by Klopp in a game that was pointless.
Also am becoming more aggravated by his constant defense of Bobby - the lad has been average (at best) most games now, and he shouldn't be an automatic.
I also think the inability to have another formation has now allowed most teams to finally have an easier time to nullify us*.
I know we're missing training time.
I know this was key to our team, but the manager knew this season was going to be shit and it seems we were hoping to be very healthy for a 3rd season running, which is just rare.
Lastly, I'm so fucking angry still that that shit that passed for referring in the Everton game (red, goal) and how it seems the norm nowadays against us, that it's turning me off football to a point where I was happy to work and do work for a charity on the side, while barely watching.
* helped by our poor form.
