Besides being up we look dull
Good thing is now we will have a lot more opportunity on the counter. Good away performance going in 1-0 HT when we haven’t created a lot
Dont really think we looked that bad tbh.
Defensively amazing except that one mess up from Raya. Midfield has been okay, but really lacking the progressive passing from everyone which is really making our attack stink.
Jesus injured, concerning…
We needed that goal. We just had an extended period of lull after starting pretty well. Raya a bit shaky as usual, Jorginho as well. I need to see more of Odegaard in the second half too.
Good goal. Jesus what a fucking turn and good composed finish from Gabi.
Too many lackluster performances this season. Something is just not right. They need to sort it
Tomiyasu is elite man.
Change raya to rams boss.
Just caught up watching the goal. Was that a Gab Gab Gab?
yesss triple Gab!
The hallowed gab^3
Thomas is so much better than jorg it boggles my mind. Idk if it’s legal reasons he’s not playing in Spain or he actually picked up a new muscular injury since playing for Ghana, but holy hell we need that guy back
apart from the goal i think martinelli a bit off today. but what an important goal from him right before ht whistle
He’s being left alone 100%. Tomi made some forward runs in the early stages, but other than that he has been 3v1 at least for the whole game.
He has looked our best attacker - Saka looks well off, not 100% convinced he isnt still carrying an injury
Was this our first Big Gabi to Gabi to Gabi goal?
we dont come up against deep blocks each game, we create that opponent with our play and attitude.
we are so unbelievably one paced and gutless that even when the space is on we slow it down to get the horseshoe going. then we get to watch the front 5 stand static.
if you want to watch Dyche in the CL, here you go. where 95% of the focus is defensively and the only players allowed to play passes that ask questions are the fullbacks. this mentality we are playing with is rotten.
it’s no surprise players like odegaard jorginho and raya can’t complete a pass because our play has had its balls clipped of belief and intent. most of our passes forward are in doubt.
we’re leading but this rant is about our play this season.
We’re in the lead, the less said about that half the better
Better performance than Lens away. Seville didnt create much, most of their chances came from mistakes. Would love to see Vieira instead of Odegaard, he is invisible yet again. Dont knoe what’s going on with him but he just cant create anything
Dominated the first 15 mins, Martinelli had a superb chance to make it 1-0 but shot into the keeper unfortunately
Dropped off a lot until the goal
Overall, not a bad first half, hope we get a second to make things more comfy and we can start to sub off some key players to rest em
