Re: Zonal Marking = Marking Thin Air

Just watched the highlights for the 1st goal.. It was Brownhill running off from Odergard to join the other 5 in the penalty area leaving him all the time in the world to shoot. I don't understand how a professional player can't see this He’s never been the sharpest knife in the drawer, to be fair.

Re: What a ******* shambles!

Let's be honest lads...we got promoted with a very very good Championship team with 100+ points. The EPL is so much more demanding...our team now is akin to Ford Escorts and Vauxhall Vivas against Ferrari's and Lamborghini 's. You are just not going to get anything from the top 8. Good performance'...

3s and 4s all round. Pick a player and stick one of those two numbers next to them.

At least Vitinho did more in his first couple of minutes on the pitch than the rest did all game.

Threw it toward Amdouni (marked by Porro) who was was unable to touch it round his man, who went on to fire it into our net.
Still Amdouni’s fault. He could’ve controlled it normally but tried to flick it around Porro instead whilst on the run.

He’s done this lots of times this season.
