FC Gomel match thread

[Frankenhooker]

We've been lucky to keep it to 0-0 at the moment.

 

Seem to be going route one as well, which is a little confusing.

 

What I was thinking. If our 'system' is to just isolate our striker, then we may as well keep Carroll. Borini hasn't had a sniff.

[billypilgrimnz]

Borini finally gets the ball to feet, crappy cross. He looks a Liverpool player already (joke)

[The Dude Abides]

Downing decides to just stand on the halfway line while the rest of his team-mates attack. If that cunt doesn't get sold then i honestly hope he gets an injury that puts him out for the season.

[Alvaro1107]

ffs guys we are 35 minutes into the season. Calm down.

[Kevin D]

Gerrard with another wasted long ball. Maybe he hasn't read Rodger's 180 page book?

 

The book is only 2 pages long, if you remove the words "vision" and philosophy".

[billypilgrimnz]

Good point by the commentators - Spearing is supposed to be the anchoring role, but Gerrard keeps on dropping back with him and doing his job because he doesn't trust him. Add Henderson ghosting around, and we have zero drive from midfield.

Money well spent. Much better than Carroll. Fits into the system. Insert tedious fact-free received wisdom soundbite here.

Just commentating on the game I see. It's shit. So the comments are negative. If they were playing well, they would be positive. How far we are into the season is irrelevant.

The only way Spearing would be a good anchor is if you tied a chain round his legs and tossed him off the side of a cruise liner.

He's basically been given the ball once all game. I think I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now.

[The Dude Abides]

Please tell me we have the mercurial Adam on the bench?

[The Dude Abides]

Downing is literally just running around hoping to not get passed the ball now. Fucking coward.

[billypilgrimnz]

Some good pointing there from Henderson, taking over from Spearing in the deep role

[Frankenhooker]

Good save Jones. Srktel left for dead there.

[billypilgrimnz]

Gomel almost score on the break, Skrtel getting muscled off the ball.

[Jairzinho]

We look like we're trial running a new sport.

[billypilgrimnz]

And again, header over the bar.Should have scored - terrible marking.

Rubber dinghy more link.

Indeed.

This ain't a pre-season friendly.

This is supposedly a European night.

 

And one which we are increasingly looking like we might have to retrieve.

If so, there will be recriminations, and quite right too.

 

The season has started. One minute in or May, people are entitled to criticise/praise.

[emryscb]

fucking holding on here

[Shogun]

Defensively we've be f*cking atrocious.

[billypilgrimnz]

Oh that was shit. Long ball from Gomel, Skrtel leaves it for Jones, who is nowhere near it, and Gomel almost score again. And again from the corner.

 

This is very, very bad.

[col06]

how the hell are they not leading :eek:
