I can see how you would have missed it v Liverpool, what with The Hose only playing 20 minutes.
Which let's not forget included the highlight of Jose running with the ball, cutting inside, getting the return pass only to be thwarted by a last gasp tackle on the penalty spot.
Why is this always so difficult?
Jose's game isn't running to the byline and slinging in a cross.
He needs the ball played to feet so he can run at the defender and either cut inside or get fouled.
I thought Tuesday was the oddest game of 'cancel each other out' football I have ever seen.
The match ups (sorry about that phrase) across the entire pitch generated nothing, they could be out there now and it would still be 0-0. It is easy for me to chalk that up as one of those games.
I...
What the fudge is wrong with people. :angry:
Judging by NSC since Saturday, our captain could be holding the 'Champions of the Universe Nebula Time and Space' trophy aloft and people will still be moaning. FFS ******* the lot of 'em :rant:
Listening to a recent interview with Graeme Le Saux, he was specifically talking about signing for Blackburn, while throughout the entire interview the subtext was the various positions he played in during his career.
Dalglish said to him:-
'I'm signing you as a left back, if I play you in any...
I was surprised by the grief he was getting at half time on the Official Match Thread, TBH I put that down to posters having already made up their minds.
Sure defensively he was pretty much nonexistent at the start, although he was receiving plenty of in game 'coaching' from Bong.
But going...
The team, midfield, isn't set up for a box to box midfielder, and in fairness never really has under CH.
The only player in a position to 'just swing a leg at it', from open play, would be Gross and we all know he's far to cultured for that.
A la Bong, what more do you people want.
The fella scores a couple of goals a season (with one outlying year when he got 7) and now he's suddenly expected to be Frank lampard.
Guess what folks if he was a midfield goal scoring threat, he wouldn't be playing for the Albion.
Hey lighten up.
Let's give BG a few days to realise finally admitting he was wrong about Ryan hasn't had a dramatic effect on the planets rotation.
Who knows he might even work out a bit of humility goes a long way.
You'd have to think so.
I firmly believe the clubs top goal scorer, this season, still doesn't even play for the Albion (or even live in England).
If it's not working for Murray what's the point in bringing on Tomer? and visa versa.
Izzy shouldn't be the scapegoat, although at least now he has...
