Tony Meolas Loan Spell
Slut Faced Whores
didn't boo yesterday, pretty sure i never had, but i certainly refused to clap at the full time whistle. Refuse to spend any more money on that until something changes, one of the worst performances given the money we've spent for a long long time. We could have played on until midnight and not come close to scoring, because in truth we didn't. Coventry had numerous chances, numerous shots on goal from decent positions, in 90 minutes the only half decent chance we created was a cms 1 on 1, which any decent keeper would have closed down because of the angle he was at when running onto the ball.
It was very, very poor. The back four are asking for bookings, hands on shirts every time the ball comes up to them, wrestling players to the floor, and again el abd and greer pusing it close to getting sent off when marking jutkiveitz (sp?). The way we played yesterday won't imo work against anyone, and until its proved wrong away from home i don't feel like wasting any more money on it. Those there yesterday would know just how frustrating it was, passing side to side at the back, numerous times putting ourselves in danger and even a few times passing it to opposition players around are own box due to mistakes. Ankergren should have claimed the cross for the second goal. Harley's 'set peice specialist' role is a load of tosh, not one set piece cleared the first man or the wall, one free kick hitting the wall so gently it led to the breakaway for the first goal. Until 75 minutes in, every time we got in a decent crossing position we checked back and passed to our full backs. Coventry were far more direct and it worked, they created chances.
As ray wilkins said, possesion football is fine, as long as it's with a purpose. We're playing with no purpose whatsoever, and teams in this league are being given enough time to organise themselves whenever we get the ball. Oh, and don't even get me started on a midfield of harley, navarro and sparrow, no creativity, not direct, no pace, and no fight in any of them yesterday.
