Toffee_in_LA Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 It only took 30+ minutes for us to have a decent spell in their half. More of this por favor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Ye Osman is nowhere near the worst at the minute. Distin and Barry are far worse. Jerry is playing like a twelve year old so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee_in_LA Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Deulofeu has tried that cross across the goal every time. Why is no one making a run at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_E Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 We're way too far apart to play good combination football so far. They're pressing hard so it makes sense to spread things in that regard, but this just isn't working. Get closer together and be confident that you have the technical ability to play in the tighter spaces and with less time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Well watched Howard. We gotta step it up second half. Too slow on the ball and seem to trying the same thing over and over. Their keeper just asked for a touch of the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Osman scapegoat again. There all playing shit mate. Stop talking shite. Him and Distin have been terrible. The difference in quality down the right from Deulofeu is huge! Get him off! Mirallas on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee_in_LA Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 What a shitty first half. If not for Howard with 3 good saves there, we would be down. Does this team even want a sniff of the top 4? First time I've said this in a while but this has been a pathetic first half... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC11 Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Something needs to change, that was terrible... He needs to bring Mirallas on the left. They will soon fold with Deulofeu and Mirallas on the wing. We are losing the midfield battle because they are closing everything down quickly.

Romey 1878 Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 That was awful. Too slow, too shit. Coleman, Distin, Barry, Osman having fucking stinkers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue 250 Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Predictable, slow, boring and that was the best bits! Howard is the only reason we are not 2 or 3 down. BUT there is hope............................we can't play that badly second half................can we ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted March 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 rough half their press game is killing us. without pienaar we barely even go down the left now, would love to see osman stop drifting midfield and stay out left to link with baines. otherwise it's easy to see what we will do since every time we get the ball it's down the right to gerry to a touchline cross or shot. we need to move through the middle with barkley or go left. agree with others here that a change needs to happen, mirallas on for osman would help or mcgeady.

Guest rusty747 Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Agree. Ossie off, Ross to CM and Mirallas on left wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Yeah, we need an outlet on the left too. Ossie isnt doing it. The boys need to remember they have a lot to play for, and if they expect a team threatened with relegation to just roll over and get their bellies tickled....well, they're truly wrong! Bit worrying that another team is going in tough with us, and we cant seem to do the same in return. COYB! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason their pressing is killing us is because we're playing too slowly. It gives them the opportunity to press. Move the ball about quicker and they won't find it so easy and will soon tire.

Brett Angel Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 I would bring naismith on along side lukaku. Give them something to think about. Take Barry off nd put McCarthy and osman in midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodisonRoad Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Worst half I've seen us have this season. Ossie is proving why he can't play 2 games in a week. He just can't do anything, too weak and his touch has been woeful. Gerry needs to cut inside instead of getting to the byline everytime. Distin and Barry have been awful as well. From the off there was no urgency what so ever. We need to impose ourselves on teams like this. They're bottom of the league FFS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee_in_LA Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) Naismith on for Barkley, possibly because of a knock Edited March 30, 2014 by Toffee_in_LA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
