You know we`ve competed very well at spurs away, wolves home and away, city at the lane, liverpool at the lane, villa away, luton away was a stroll in the park, brentford comfy enough etc etc.... The big difference as far as my battered eyes can see is that we didn`t concede an early goal in any of those games;
When we concede early the heads drop, the legs drop, the soul drops out of our team. We are so brittle. Arsenal were good but United players dropping deep, almost like a wagon circle fighting the red indians off.... we are our worst enemies... because all we do is try and throw bodies in the way of shots. Robbo and the rest are prone to a wild belly flop in front of the keeper and net. BUT why don`t they try and tackle the f**ker with the ball? STOP the shot ever being taken??
The amount of own goals and ricochets off our players into goal is not a coincidence, shut your eyes and throw thi sen in way is a defence but only a last defence
Of course we have been, since Berge and Ndiaye, well short of the quality of last seasons team. No Sharpy to shout at the troops and get them to die for the Blades!, No mobile midfield man like Doyle.
BUT the BIGGEST blame is totally with the jolly Arab and his pet tinkering with the world football empire he wanted to build... but you don`t build owt with sixpence and 3 farthings. The bloke has totally stuffed us, no quality, no depth, no long term plan, no commonsense, no football brain, no bollocks.
Thanks a chuffin` lot Prince of sod all of arabia , you took away optimism just before the season`s start, underwhelmed us with the start and now have turned us into tired fed up , depressed, football zombies in a tired shitty groundhog day that seems to be never ending.
No manager i`ve ever known could do owt with this squad, there are just too many cheap lads who chuck the white flag in as soon as the first shot enters the bacK o` the net.
Oh bugger bugger, buggeration,
On to bournemouth it is then
