During World War II, it was used as a derogatory word to call the Japanese soldiers. Unfortunately after the war, its usage has persisted since then in North America and has been viewed as a racist word.

BearcatSA Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Hoillet has really stood out in all phases and has been the POTH. Gian-Luca, vancanman and Sal333 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floortom Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Overall a solid half. Only two guys that didn’t look at the level required are Piette and Miller, which if we’re honest shouldnt be a huge surprise. tajon, Junior, Ali, David were all quite good Corazon and Shway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corazon Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Very happy with that half. Most of our players looked very good. Junior and David were fantastic. Hutchinson looks like he’s 25 and been playing all season. Tajon has caused headaches. Vitoria and Johnston have been strong. Adekugbe started slow but got better. Borjan and Larin not much to go on. Kamal and Piette not looking good. sonic_fcpf and jhoops__ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corazon Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Hopefully Kone has a great cameo and convinces Herdman to switch to a 3-man midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinceA Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Team was fine except for Miller trying to be a pass master instead of being safe. I still think we are at our best when we run 3 in the midfield. Piette is at his best when he can defend and distribute from deep not be forced to be Eustaquio lite in a two man.

The Beaver 2.0 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Good half. We grew into the game, are learning to adjust, and are having some nice spells. Miller and Piette have had some shaky moments for sure. They need to play faster. Atiba has been good, but a bit rusty. But overall a decent half. Great free kick delivery from Hoillet.

SpursFlu Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) People can be critical of Miller or Piette but the reality is these are our players. There is no alternatives at CB or as a defensive midfielder. So we'll have to eat what's on our plate and just realize we're on a different level now I thought it was a decent half from us. After the first 10 I thought it might be a disaster Edited November 17, 2022 by SpursFlu Corazon, JamboAl, Shway and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gian-Luca Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 50 minutes ago, jonovision said: Why would anyone prefer this, or care at all? Probably the same reason why the 11 players we're cheering for on the pitch do - we prefer the original lyrics that we've sung all of our lives. I could add another 5 or 6 reasons I suppose but not sure why anyone would care or be interested in the middle of a WC friendly. Back to the actual match, I would like to see Piette subbed out at the half. He's the weak link out there, he can only play the most simple pass going forward and isn't actually destroying the opposition's attack much (and is helping to destroy our own because we can't build out of the back through him, we have to go around him), leading me to ask what role he is actually playing out there. We have far too many other options not to try. Get Oso or Kone out there or even Fraser. jhoops__, Lansdude and johnyb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig11rm Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I’d take Piette and Larin off for Osorio and Kone at some point. I think when Davies is back, Hoilett should move centrally behind David and take Larin off. His set piece delivery is too important for tournament play. jhoops__ and Lansdude 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
