Scrappy game so far but we have hit the second. COYP.

2 goals in a game though.

 


Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).

I often thought Benteke would have been a great defender if he'd gone down that route years ago. Nothing would have stopped him coming forward for set pieces. A bit like Terry.
What may have been.

This is a very good shout. A la Dion Dublin. Maybe not quite good enough on the ball to be Ruud Gullit when he retreated to be sweeper...

Conor Gallagher Player of the year and top scorer!

Going to miss him next season

Another goal conceded from a corner.
Sissoko had a free run and Butland could have done better.
We don't win any headers defending or attacking corners.
We need to move the ball faster.
Far too many passes backwards, at times it resembled "Royball".

You don't say! We'd be bottom 3 without his presence this season.

All about game management now, we got a lot of good
options on the bench

Plenty of possession but as soon we go forward the ball is launched high or else straight to the opposition.

We should win this but their front 3 looks menacing at times and it could still go either way.

Hughes is pressing forward effectively but I'd rather have Edouard
to replace Mateta, he has less bustle but more skill. I can't criticise Wilf - at least he passes accurately.

Our achilles heal is defending crosses and corners. Watford could yet win this due to our vulnerability in defence.

Christ! We cant defend at corners can we!! Useless at man marking, they keep losing their man. I think zonal marking is the only alternative with this lot. Question has Andersen ever left the ground when heading the ball? he seems to have a problem with earths gravity.

The good news is that Roy wont make any subs until the 85 min.

 


One more point

He gets bullied far too easily in a 1v1 situation.Can look good passing the ball but a central defender needs to be physical and aggressive in the PL.
