I want to beat the scousers almost as much as I want to win the cup final.   And not because it keeps them further away from the top 4 (though that’s an added bonus).   I want to stuf

It is a hard one. Some performances were below what we have come to expect. I was a bit disappointed with Isak but he has lacked some game time. I think ASM played himself into the game as it went on.

It’s been pedestrianised for about 25 years

Hardly his fault though. He’s got the ball into a dangerous area and people haven’t got on the end of it.

That’s nonsense. You can hit good crosses that put your team mate into a good position and/or the opposition under pressure or you can hit bad ones that are just easy to defend. Maxi’s have just been poor.

it’s just like not every shot on target is a good one but only those that actually are difficult to save.

I'd be super disappointed to not be ahead after that half if I was Bournemouth. They brought good energy from the start and had done their homework on our attack knowing when to commit and which spaces we'd be moving in. Created the best chances too.

Think that’s giving them a lot of credit. It was a decent counter attacking performance but I don’t think they particularly deserved to be in the lead, same shots and shots on target for both teams, similar sloppiness on the ball imo.

Ours were in added time. They deserve credit for that half apart from falling asleep at the end and not tracking Longstaff's run from deep through the middle. That was the only time all half we created a meaninful chance, everything else was a hopeful cross into the middle defended easily.

Agree to disagree I suppose. I don’t see how a draw is seen as an egregious result from that half, we were poor and I gave Bournemouth credit but at the same time I don’t think they particularly deserved to be ahead - a draw to me was a fair reflection of the half.

Don't mind that from Maxi. Cutting inside and shooting is his game. Passing is not.

Yeah, was a poor last touch before the shot that gave him next to no chance, but still ok with him taking it to keep them on their toes.
