Kulusevski as an 8 has been the highlight of the first half for me. Brilliant defensively, has not been afraid to commit to anything, and is extremely good at holding the ball in tight situations. Madders hasn't been as good, I'm liking Solanke. Porro has been 2nd best at every action against Martinelli, and Udogie is doing well but that yellow is very worrying when it is against Saka.

That’s a really strange take. Maddison has seen almost double the ball Kulusevski has. Kulusevski has his from the ball several times in build up down the right, and he’s also wasted two or three fantastic attacking situations with carelessness with the ball.

I’d still have rather had him out there than Johnson - as a RF - who is pointless in these deep block games, but we need a proper R8 to help us build through the block.
 
Ref is out of his depth. Glad it’s half time, Ange needs a big half time talk; they’ve disrupted how we want to play and are getting under our skin.

Kulusevski the only one who’s shown any real bravery, need some others to step up now or they will nick this.
This is the same ref that we had away at Forest last season I believe. A complete warhead of a referee.
 
Especially when we’ve Solanke who excels at winning headers/holding the ball up. A few seasons ago we scored a fair few goals by hoofing it forward, Kane flicking it on and Son or Kulusevski running through on goal
This is the biggest issue with playing Udog as inverted and pushing Sonny out wide. We miss the latter's finishing from central positions.
 
We don’t create anything clear cut. Teams give us the ball and sit back because they know we won’t do anything other then pass it around for a few minutes and then get a winger to cross it in to a packed box. Fuck Ange ball.
 
Don't insult Niall Quinn please!

I know what you mean but sooner or later we have to start winning some big games against decent oppo.
I know but fuck me this has last minute goal against written all over it……we will huff & puff get nowhere then the same patter from certain players & manager “we competed well” …..”we were unlucky “ …..”we will learn from it” comes out tomorrow
 
Said it last year and it's more evident already this season.


The card system is the latest way refs can fuck teams like us this season without drawing direct attention and having no consequences.

Managers don't complain about yellows, but with half your team on a yellow worried that they'll getting a second .....it influences the games ....
