They're not the problem, the clueless play around the opposition box is. That's down to the 'creative players' like Mirallas, Osman, Barkley, Pienaar. Just not cute enough I'm afraid. Leaden footed and slow of wit.

Why are we playing 2 sitters against palace though? It didn't work and hasn't worked against teams who want to sit back and defend! We need a plan B and that formation hasn't changed all season.
 
look at the end of the day another clean sheet and we are only 5pts off the TOP of the lge

fook this down in the dumps s**t and always moaning because we didnt win 4-0 and all them contenders for goal of the season

yes our biggest problem i see so far is the pace at which we play at times pedestrian and when you play like that you need every single pass to be bang on and the end result a guy in space with time to slot the ball home..........so when you take this formula and insert it the rough and tumble pace of the premier lge

it doesnt always work out but get off it

and finally to all here more worried about the RS...... cop the F on

the game hasnt even taken place yet and your putting us down
 
Surprised Naismith never got a run out, he gets himself in some very good positions drawing defenders away from Lakaku,who today was well shackled by the Palace defence.
We will have to play a lot better against the RS,perform anything like we did today then i fear the worst.

Naismith gets too much stick! He works hard outside but still hasn't been given a go through the middle!
 
...there's a bottom line, particularly away from home and its all about creating chances. You can keep the ball as long as you want, you can be top of the passing stats but it means nothing if you don't create. Their keeper might as well been in the bar with me. I can accept losing, I can accept drawing but its so disappointing when we don't CREATE.
 

Lol at the child whose random neg rep said this:

hey slugface you called?? you want me to make you cry like the little crybaby you are?? **vaults off back of passing greyhound bus and webs**

pmsl. Surely no older than about 15?

Too cute, if you ask me...not direct, pacey or incisive enough and the movement is sh*te. If you're going to have the top of the box packed like that, get buzzing around and lose your man for space but no...we sit and wait for a pass that isn't coming or it comes to someone with 2 or 3 men on him.
 
I'm still not convinced by Deulefeu. I can't figure out what seems to be his preferred position. He doesn't look to cross the ball often and when he gets the ball he looks tentative until deciding to run at the defense at which point he's starting flat footed and the defense is ready for him.
 

Pienaar - 6 - Off form, the Baines partnership isn't working and to me doesn't look fit.
-

That first minute knock meant he spent the rest of the game in "Pienaar might as well not be here mode" which usually happens after he takes an early wake up call (like the Derby at Analfield a few years ago).

McCarthy was playing in advance of Barry most of the game.

Nevertheless, our attacking outlet should be getting in and around them all day.
