Exeter FA Cup home

[magicrat]

Doesn't add any colour or impart any wisdom does he? Barely descriptive, just chats shit from his rothmans yearbook.

Just banal drivel for the whole 90 minutes

[Anubis]

Chance of scoring not that great? He hit the bar you whelk.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Owen and his out-swinging fucking corners, every fucking game.

[Chip Butty]

Signals can get to the moon and back quicker than they can get from Benteke's brain to his legs

He's not the brightest is he. He's like a mongy Jason McAteer.

[Jairzinho]

It was the way they didn't break stride between pondering why he might be out of favour and then, after he fired a free header two yards out over, diving straight into asking if that's what Liverpool should be doing more of.

 

As Clough once said, "Shut up, and show more football." Not that the last bit still applies, but the start of that sentence should be mandatory for commentators unless strictly necessary.

Benaud's law.

[aRdja]

Stewart is very average.

[James Dean]

Imagine if we had a striker. 

[Arl arse]

put the cross

  

in

  

my bum

 

Your Mother sucks cocks in hell.

[James Dean]

Allen very good. Benteke very poor.

 

Honorable mentions for Ibe, Smith and Teixeira.

 

Stewart is horribly one footed.

[Sugar Ape]

"Brilliant goal from @LFC." Joe Allen finishes off a slick passing move against @OfficialECFC. #EmiratesFACup https://t.co/StQRmw50c9

[Anubis]

Good half, but once again our inability to score is the problem.

[Ne Moe Imya]

Smith our best player, Stewart and Enrique comfortably our worst.

 

Not much on show, really, but we have been completely dominant.  Have Exeter even had a shot?  I can't work out what the commentators are talking about when they say they're "growing in confidence" and the like.  They haven't even had a single shot, I don't think!

[Grinch]

Not too bad.  Look very dangerous every time we mix it up going forward.  Unfortunately wasting the majority of our attacks with easily defended crosses in a silly attempt to play to the lump's strength.

[magicrat]

He's not the brightest is he. He's like a mongy Jason McAteer.

 

Being serious for moment i don't think it's necessarily an intelligence problem he's just not an instinctive footballer. Amazed he has got as far in the game as , Great strikers all have the ability to anticipate and react quickly ,

CUP OF JOE

[Dr. J]

Minus a second goal, little to fault there. Everyone is at it and we've put more shots on target than the first team did in a month.

[Red House]

One-sided first half, but we should already be in the clear. That defense will probably find a way to fuck up, so could do with another goal here.

[Ginny]

We don't need a striker. We've got Joe Allen. Cancel the scouts 

[Chip Butty]

Some nice passing and build up play, but apart from the to be fair well worked goal, pretty flat and toothless once we get in and around the box. 

[Quaresma]

This looks damn good. We press them down on their knees and force them to beg for mercy. They try to remember a safeword they can shout, but players like Benteke , Allen and Enrique have not accepted any safeword. I'm sorry, Exeter dogs, but you will get fucked from one end to the other! YNWA!

Good game by Agent Smith!

[LFC 6 Times]

That missed header from Benteke is inexcusable for any centre forward let alone one who is revered for being good in the air. Also the ball slipped him into the left side of the box where he had the defender squared up against him at the end of the half just sums him up, ponderous and predictable.

[cuppatea]

We've fuck all left to play for and Moreno has looked knackered lately - time to start Smith in a league game.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

In a half we dominated Enrique still looked dog shit in the few things he had to do, Benteke actually ran a few times so doesn't get the utter dog shit title but he is woefully low on confidence as that header which he should have buried proves. He's just a bang average lazy bastard when not in the mood as he just wants everything put inch perfect on a plate for him. If he does score and has a good game he soon reverts back to average mode.

 

Young Smith our best player in that half, although Ibe was decent enough as was the welsh Jesus. Smith should get a shot in the league to see how he manages against better opposition, away to an out of form Norwich could be the perfect game for the lad. less pressure away from home in a league match debut and Norwich are shit at the back. 

 

Put that team on the pitch with a Rush/Fowler/Suarez in Benteke's place and we'd be comfortably 4-0 up at H/T. 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

I didn't think Benteke was too bad that half, at least by the standards of the past eighteen months worth of strikers. He actually ran to close down a few times, and Ibe should've taken notice when he was pointing him to where the ball was going to be played by the Exeter defence. Could've caught them a couple of times.

 

I have no confidence in him scoring mind, but at least he's not some immovable object travellers can navigate by tonight.

 

Seeing replays of the goal show exactly why he'll never work for us though. As soon as he plays that ball to Smith he switches off and becomes a spectator, it never even seems to dawn on him that he should move towards the goal.

[TheHowieLama]

I didn't think Benteke was too bad that half,

 

striker.

 

I have no confidence in him scoring

 

he'll never work for us though.
