I thought we were all trying to convince ourselves that we have professional athletes' physiques.

Cheeta Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I'll take that 1st half, warts and all. We're up 1 after 45 away and looking better as the half got on. Yup. I'll take it. trc2014 and toontownman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Just now, Fullback said: My thoughts exactly. The negativity is so over the top and most of the time I don’t understand why It's early in the morning = grumpy It's easier to be negative People still salty from the u17 failure General toxicity inside outside of the board around the CSA/Herdman/Biello/players entitlement and dip in performance. Maybe we have fallen into the same trap the players have. We have been spoiled and over privileged with our recent success! Either way it's a match thread with critics commenting It's always overtly negative until we do something positive like score. We fickle. h coach, Watchmen, canuckgbp and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkguy Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Buchanan has been very poor. Kone started poor with multiple giveaways, but seemed to settle in. I hate Davies as a forward. He rarely plays there anymore and he seems so nonchalant with the ball when he's lined up there. costarg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 The last 20 minutes of that game were hugely different from the first phase. Much better play, and looking good going forward. We always start slow and grow into a game. Fortunately we didn’t get punished while we were still switched off. Really wish Larin could have put them to the sword with a second goal before half but damn, I will take it. let’s just execute in the 2nd half and make sure we are on solid footing for the home leg.

Borjans Sweatpants Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Wonder if we’ll see any changes at half. I feel like Vitoria needs to come off, not sure Biello will make any changes though. Shway, TOcanadafan, Cadeau and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gator Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 That was sloppy at times and we could have conceded 2 or 3 with better finishing by Bailey, in saying that we seemed to grow into the match and maybe are unlucky to be up by only a goal! Keep things tighter in the 2nd half on this sloppy pitch and we should be ok but who knows, are away goals in effect in this competition?

In reality it should probably be more if you add Antonio, Borjan, and all the small time wasting segments. This sport really needs to just get official timekeeping. clamlinguine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shway Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Kamal has been perfect. Vitoria has been shaky. Both Laryea and Sammy have been good, good 1v1 defending. Staq is growing into the game, but was non existent for majority of the half. Kone has done very well quarterbacking in the middle. Tajon and Davies trying to do too much dribbling on this pitch. Just won't work. Larin has played well he's had some horrible touches, and some great plays. David has played good doing well in linking up with Larin.
