Messy, but creating chances

Get osman off for Mcgeady as soon as he's ready please.

Not watching everton then, been good so far, held the ball up well, and linked play a lot better than mose

Someone was mentioning the stats earlier, bet365 show us having 9 shots (4 on target) against 1 (off target) from WBA.

I agree we haven't been at our best, but really we more than deserve being 1 nil up at half time.

 

[MACCA75]

Bobbly pitch isnt doing us any favours

 

[harry]

Not the best half we've played. If we play osman behind the striker against Liverpool we will be letting gerrard off the hook.

 

[n01efc]

Osman looks lost on the left- anyone know what's wrong with peanuts?

 

[davids]

Get osman off for Mcgeady as soon as he's ready please.

I always try to give Osman the benefit,but tonight he's been poor.

 

[BlueToff]

We've looked decent going forward but very sloppy in defence. Anelka has popped up in the hole way too much for my liking!\

Good goal though and Mirallas has played well. I'm a bit iffy on this system though.

COYB lets do these!

*cough*

WBA v Everton

Howard
Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines
--------McCarthy Barry
McGeady Mirallas Pienaar/Oviedo
----------Lukaku

I'd try Mirallas out before the Derby in that role in case Barkley doesn't make it.

Why do you think Mirallas would be good in that role Dave?

Sorry, didn't see this.

Yeah, I think he could be a real driving force from there and maybe have a better understanding of Lukaku's movement than Ross has. I've been critical of his final ball, but he does have most assists to his name. I dont think he has the close control of Barkley, but he's no mug either and he wont be easily stripped of the ball. For the Derby i think it's vitally important you get at their dodgy midfield and rock them back on their heels.

...sure this Catalan clown's reading this forum.

 

[sageyefc]

Distin isnt the best against forwards with movement, hes getting pulled around a bit.

Oviedo has been very good, loved his almost slow motion stepover that left one of there lot kicking fresh air.

Messy, but creating chances

Pretty much.

When we attack we're doing it numbers and its causing problems.

Just need to keep the ball and Lukaku needs to hold the ball up to help us do that up field.

 

[ilikecheese]

Not our best half of football.

Certainly not our worst. Reckon WBA have a goal in them. McGeady debut goal coming up!

 

[Furey1878]

Bobby OUT! Davek IN!

 

[BigBlueConk]

Not many players have showed up yet. We could get 5 if we start playing this half!

He's gave away possession twice and almost cost us two goals. Liability.
