Ronnie Starling Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Yes they do up their game with a crowd. Wilder seems to be lacking in ideas with a threadbare squad that's not scoring. As for Sander Berge he looks a shocking signing as he offers nothing in or out of possession. He must be on tidy sum compared to the rest of the squad which may cause a few issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradowl Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Watching last 3 performances makes you wonder how they have accumulated so many points. They've been pants in all 3 games creating very little up front. That Berge doesn't look good enough for level of football and they paid over £20million for him.

scram Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 (edited) On the face of it finishing 10th would be a good season but 3 games ago these crackpots thought they would be getting into the europa league as a minimum If i was them i'd sack off the league now and just concentrate on the fa cup Edited June 25, 2020 by scram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always found that odd too. Like when you player a team once in the season they can "work you out".... Despite the fact that the opposition will have watched you in pretty much every game in the season so far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think their style of play has definitely surprised a few teams in the PL. With hindsight though I’m thinking the influence of the crowd must’ve been a huge factor as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn't their success to date been based on a tight defence? That is what has changed they are conceeding now. Once they conceed they struggle apart from hopeful crosses into a packed box...

Excellent defence (until the last 2 games), Man Utd lending them the best keeper in England for 2 years, and very good organisation and hard work. It can get you a long way - but when the flipside is averaging less than a goal scored a game it'll only get you so far. They've exceeded all expectations, fair play, but it's laughable that their fans still seem to think that despite the lack of goals and having the lowest number of shots on target in the entire division they're renowned for playing amazing football and they're "everybody's second favourite team" (yes I've actually seen this. I laughed.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Utd were strolling through that, one-touch lay-offs and mazy dribbles whenever they felt like it. It should have been 6. It was like a training game for Man U. Nice game of attack and defence.

This is true, and I do. But I'm enjoying this run ! All the more because they have been absolutely useless. Newcastle should have had 5, and Man U could have scored as many as they wanted. This is not sour grapes because I have always thought this, but how can a club "loan" a player for a season , never mind two. The loan system is being abused so wealthy clubs keep players unnecesarily . henderson (or anybody else) should not be allowed to be on the books of one club and spend 2 years playing full time for another, it's absurd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
