Howay 12496 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 (edited) There you gan lads, Luke totally ignores the fact that in those losses/draws early on under Rafa the team showed shape and ideas compared to the games so far this season that have showed absolutely no semblance of a plan. We could barely muster up a chance, only scoring a goal that has since been declared an error that VAR should have overruled, against Watford ffs. I get he’s playing devils advocate and sticking up for his mate but he’s making himself look like he knows nothing about football.

I was just about to post the tweet as well, he’s becoming a parody of himself. The performance had nothing in it to put a positive spin in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4386 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Joelinton's transfer stinks more an more each week. Lad tries but if he's worth 40m then the game is a lot more fucked than I thought. Wilhems is fucking shit as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess everything would look a lot different if we weren’t playing John Beck’s 80s vintage football tactics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give Bruce a chance. Aye, but the other 88 minutes were deplorable. The change in tempo was when Maxie and Andy came on but they came on too late. Are you related to Bruce?

The biggest difference is that we dominated them last season with loads of chances and were "unlucky", i. e. too stupid, not too win while it was the other way round last night.

Ayatollah Hermione 13869 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 PROS: Carroll coming on and immediately leaving two of their lot lying in a broken heap. CONS: Everything else.

Horrific, for balance here are the stats from the fixture at home to Brighton that we lost last season that Luke and this Ugly Mackem bloke love to hold up as an example of why Bruce is comparable to Rafa: 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
