They looked like they wanted to win 10 times more than us and that's really worrying
It's become a trend in these recent derbies. They are so weak and open for the kill yet we fail to equal their intensity and pressure and either lose or draw.
Very weak performance, without Son we would have lost this game. He created literally everything today.
We desperately need a RB in January imo, absolute priority but when did we last sign a player in the Jan window?
He’d have subbed him for Davies
Yet Poch didnt change it.
I think its just stubborness and a refusal to admit he got it wrong, everyone could see Sanchez was struggling from about 5 mins in, Half time came I was thinking ok we will get Aurier on to steady the ship, nothing. Then he takes Son and Lamela off, brings on Dele who has been poor for as long as I can remember and leaves Moura who would have definitely scored today with all space to run into.
Thought you'd gone to the pub? That's where I'm going now. Couple of pints of Guinness to take the bad taste out of my mouthOff for a pint.....parting thought...
I was really slagged off by a load of people on the forum when I appeared to be a melter after the Newcastle game when I had the temerity to criticise Poch. I feel vindicated by the clusterfuck today. We should have taken 3 points. Poch's refusal to see what is actually happening on the field and his little boy stubbornness in refusing to accept he might have made a mistake is the only reason we didn't win. Sanchez and Rose should have been subbed at halftime. Davies and Aurier brought on. No. Not doing that. Then he takes off Son who is playing really well and looks like the only player likely to score. Criminal...
I'm afraid that if he doesn't learn from these 1st 4 games, we are not going to be within sniffing distance of the top 6 let alone the top 4.
Well it helps when you know you can do whatever you like and the ref will allow you to get away with it but give a foul every time one of our players breathed on them.
Wish we would have exploited their shit defense by playing more balls over the top rather than getting getting balls turned over by their midfield.
I think they're way off. The whole defense including the keeper are dodgy. Xhaka also.
He can't seem to get on the pitch any other way at the moment so might as well.
Uh, Moura?
Not from the 5th minute mate - his first touch 20 seconds in was a shin hit that went out of bounds
Oh right, thought the other poster was saying play him at right back LOL.
But yeah, I mean, we don't often sign players in the Jan window do we? Moura was the exception rather than the rule.
