Totally numb this season. 38th year as a season ticket holder and I told the other 3 die hards who I have been going to the match with last season that this would end in tears. His first home match last season, 3 mins of injury time, free kick in our own half and Jags passes it to Distin. I may be wrong but I would have had these 2 in the box and thrown it in - deflection, penalty, anything can happen if the ball is near their area. Yes it may have gone out for a goal kick but we won't score from passing it in our own half that's for certain.
OK we got some good wins last year but I genuinely believe that it was overrated. Arsenal away, passed them to death first half but still hardly got anywhere near the box. All done outside, watch back if you don't believe me.
Biggest 3 games (in my opinion) of last year were Arsenal in cup, Arsenal at home in league and Southampton away in league. We used to batter Moyes for choking on the big occasion but 2 of these 3 were a joke. Cup game - 4 goals conceded and Robles brought in. Arsenal at home - as good as they played all year. Southampton away - victory needed for CL qualification - utter sh*** and gutless.
If you listen to how he talks about McGeady and Alcaraz you would think that he was talking about Ratcliffe and tricky Trev.Call a spade a spade as you can't fool the punters although you have done a good job so far.
He inherited the 3rd meanest defense and we now have the 2nd worst.You have seen the stats on Sky - hardly tackling, most unforced errors, etc. Forget these, all I know is that I am seeing a side that cannot defend, gutless in midfield and doesn't create anything going forward.
One season apart under Moyes we were good for 5th - 7th and given the finances we were in fairly safe hands. A bad defeat under Moyes and we almost always bounced back....Wigan 0-3 in the cup, week later we gave it to City. This lot don't even do that for us......
I want him to do well as I like him but Ferguson and Mourinho change tactics and styles at to exploit the opposition. We have one way of playing......and I don't think he is capable or willing to change.........
