BoroDave4 1,025 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Looks a little bit like the occasion is weighing on both teams in that first half. Hopefully we start the 2nd with the same type of positivity we started the 1st Link to post Share on other sites
AnglianRed 6,320 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Oy! What was that from Negredo? Can't tell if he just lost control or wanted to pass there...pretty much sums up the first half for us. Link to post Share on other sites
diggerlad07 3,695 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Solid start first 20mins and then off the boil with lack of ideas! Our passing is shocking at times and always a yard behind the opposite team.. Link to post Share on other sites
Dynamo Kev 1,557 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 the crowd are dead. its a strange atmos. i think its affecting the players on the pitch. if we nick a goal here. swansea will be ultra bricking it. we can do this lads dont lose faith. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,982 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'm not sure why I let a little bit of hope back in. We're still ***e. There's no movement. Gestede has won multiple flick ons but there's noone for it to go to. CT is right, football has been coached out of this lot. Link to post Share on other sites
boro-unger 3,870 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Swansea all over us for a lot of that half. Our passing has been terrible, and our counter attacks will keep breaking down unless we improve it. Still hopeful, but going to revise my score to 1-0 boro... Link to post Share on other sites
pikerman 1,121 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Sunday league stuff this. As CT said, all attacking intent seems to have been coached our of this set of players and no time for Agnew to change it. Link to post Share on other sites
diggerlad07 3,695 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Felt sorry for Barragan there. Just no one supporting him. Don't feel sorry for Barragan! Such a lazy/rash player! I feel sorry that he's actually a professional footballer! Him and Bernando are way off the pace for the premier league Link to post Share on other sites
Prowler 197 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Time to just start pumping the ball forward and hope to push Swansea back Link to post Share on other sites
Okladomah 2 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Oooft. It's pretty amazing that a team can have so many terrible players going forward. It's constant stop-start. One player will play a decent pass and then the next can't even trap a ball to keep the move going. Agnew will have to magically make this lot into actual footballers.

I feel sorry that he's actually a professional footballer! Him and Bernando are way off the pace for the premier league I actually think Barragan is a CB but has always been at teams with better players there and then there was an issue at a club at RB and he just raised his hand and said "I'm a RB, I'll play there" and got stuck with it :P Link to post Share on other sites

Will 2,958 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 We need to just go route one, we arent going to outplay Swansea so let's just bully them. The necessary players are on the pitch, just go completely direct Link to post Share on other sites
AnglianRed 6,320 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'm not sure why I let a little bit of hope back in. We're still ***. There's no movement. Gestede has won multiple flick ons but there's noone for it to go to. CT is right, football has been coached out of this lot. It does rather seem that way. Another thing is we seem scared to take games by the scruff of the neck and dominate other teams when they give us time and space to play. It goes back to that comment by Betamaxman. When we have the ball, we get so far up the pitch, then suddenly seem scared to go any further. Even when Ramirez, Downing or Traore get forward and put a cross in, there is never anyone to get on the end of it...discounting Negredo as he is usually sandwiched between 2 defenders.

pikerman 1,121 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I agree with Will, nothing to lose now, put Gestede and Negrado in the box and lump balls at them, we need to score somehow. Link to post Share on other sites
