Sorry to disagree with you, but I thought Moura had a really good game against the Toon, which included tireless running, mazey little dribbles past several players and some good through balls.

A magnificent exhibition of professional association football. How can anybody fail to be impressed.
At what point can we get unanimous agreement among the fans that the squad depth is appauling to an unacceptable extent?
Exactly
He’s shit?
Well that was fucking embarassing. We looked clueless against an meh Vitesse side who were all up for it. We had no desire or motivation to make it work. No plan besides hooving it long. It's a shame Gil and Gio have to play with this rubbish around them. Think Gil could become a great player.
Winks was hotheaded and could have got 2 yellow cards only by arguing with the ref. Very lucky to be on the pitch when the final whistle went. He cares though and wants to win and attack. He was visibly frustrated by the slow goalkicks of Gollini and slow buildup of others.
Scarlett got bullied and that probably won't do his confidence any good (again). You're basicly playing with 10 if you put him up against someone big and experienced like Bazoer. Men against boy.
Bergwijn isn't dangerous at all, so predictive and riskless. Needs to find his mojo very soon. Probably very low on confidence but should step up against familliar opposition like Vitesse.
Alli. I don't even know what his role is anymore. Every pass that wasn't backwards was a ball that ended up at Vitesses feet. Feels disconnected witht the rest of the team in a tactical way. He would flourish if people made clever runs in behind but we're so predictive.
I also felt physicly ill the whole time in the home end. I'm never never never never doing that again. You have to understand that I'm from Doetinchem (de Graafschap) and my girlfriend is from Nijmegen (NEC). We both hate Vitesse and Vitesse hates us with a passion. Lost all my respect for that club and their fans while I stood there when they were singing "hamas, hamas, all yews on the gas". Confronted a few since it made my blood boil. Typing thing makes me just as angry and dissapointed as yesterday again.
For once their stadium had an athmosphere. Atmosphere was probably the best that stadium had ever been with a home game. It was filled with one time visitors though. They even begged those one time visitor with banners begging them to come next home games.
"While you're here, we're playing Eagles this saturday ..."
I was right next to the Spurs fans and got the good old goosebumps hearing 'oh when the spurs' and more so close to me and it felt like betrayal not to join in. Spoke to a few yids outside and that was great. Hope to attend a game in N17 and drink shit loads of pints with you all early next year.
Let's smash them at home.

Scarlett is not ready for mens football. Its almost cruel playing him
Dane Scarlett is not ready for first team football and yet he’s our second striker. We’re a prem team and have a youth player as our second striker.
Is he even ready for u23s?
Is he even ready for u23s?
He’s learnt that off Dele
We’re going to break Scarlett are t we.
Poor kid
Poor kid
I feel for the fans who travelled. That was hard to watch.
We need to learn that if they haven't turned in consistent quality performances for us after 2 seasons, it's probably time to cut our losses rather than 'hope' they'll turn into the player we dreamed theyd be.
If they're going to be good, most senior players have nailed their starting position after 2 seasons.
100%
It also allows players to shirk the pressure of being favourites. Play a good team and tell them they need to win the whole fucking competition. We always take the easy way out.
I hate how certain fans dismiss these cups. Who the fuck are we to turn our noses up at any trophy?
Or are we going to simply fill the empty cabinets with our architecture awards?
