Steve_E Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I dunno mate, maybe thats just me then. Main point is that i think we should be using the whole pitch instead of just one flank, creates a lot more space I agree with that of course. I was just pointing out that we don't have a fixed right winger. Coleman needs to get up the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Good position for a fk. Has Jelavic scored a fk for us yet? Though Barkley's effort was closer than it was, he's done well hopefully show us some magic in the second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Some of the football had been lovely to watch. And after that half I think a lot of questions have been answered regarding Barkley, he's been excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Barkley is looking bright. Wish I could find a good stream that isn't so sketchy. The game pauses every ten seconds for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Why are we not shooting from the edge of the area? Exactly what I've been thinking. There have been a few opportunities un which we've decided not to have a pop. They must be under instructions to work it into the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_E Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Pleased with that first half. We're in control but need someone to step up a bit and show a bit of extra class to get us a goal. Defensively we've barely had anything to deal with as we've had so much of the ball and Jagielka and Distin have dealt with whatever outbreaks they did have, even if they conceded corners doing so. Our defenders also aren't giving the ball away as much as they did in pre-season. There was just one time today but I didn't see what happened as the director chose to go for a minute shot of Van Wolfswinkel's face while play was going on. Anyway, Osman fouled immediately and we dealt with the free kick. Pienaar and Barkley our best players so far imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcus jones Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Good half that, I think Coleman needs to find his man with his whipped in crosses, many positive's so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Brilliant first half that IMO. Couple of bad decisions in there, especially early on but we have grown into it and they havent had a sniff in the last 20-25mins, but its just a shame we cant put one of these chances in the back of their net. I actually think the midfield of Osman, Fellaini and Barkley has done very well and they have got better as the game has progressed. We just need to come out firing in the 2nd half and not show our old trait of coming out half asleep. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Barkley has had a good half his composure on the ball has been great, Osman and Pienaar both have been shite at finding players both poor at moving the ball on at times... Still think We missed a bargain and rough gem in Redmond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicagoblue Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Everyone playing well with Barkley and Pienaar excelling so far. Couple nice touch from Jelly, but again we're not getting the ball into him where he can get a shot away. Too many passes around the top of the area, going to need to take a few shots or work it side to side faster. Norwich are sitting deep and despite our possession we're not really troubling them. Osman's been poor for me, not really offering anything, I'd just as soon have him off, stick Pienaar in the middle and bring Deolefeu or Oviedo on to really stretch both wings with pace.

Fearthainn Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Quite happy with that first half display. Just need to do better in the final third. Keep running rings around their full backs and when they're exhausted get Deulofeu or even Naismith on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
