I reckon that team could do quite well - Dawson and Phillips on right, Gibbs and brunt on left.

Heres hoping.

We are NOT controlling the ball !
Edit...Never mind the game.

It's a 4-4-2

No power from Rodrigez

Well defended, he did well to at least get it on target

Yet ANOTHER stupid back pass...almost giving a goal away.

It's easy to ignore in this long winless streak that despite not getting the results the performances are much better under Pardew

Evans stood off his player...YET AGAIN !!

Has it really? The Liverpool performance I agree and probably Everton too but the rest seems like the same inconsistent performance.

Why don't we go down with the ball, rather than hoofing?

Scooby Doo · « **Reply #86 on:** December 31, 2017, 04:49:57 PM »

Standing off them. Oh dear.

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #87 on:** December 31, 2017, 04:50:50 PM »

They know that Evans is our weakest link.

The balance in this team selection is all off. Need Yacob in there to sit in the gap between our defence and midfield - Arsenal are consistently outnumbering us on the ball, which is tactically unforgivable.

They're going too. They've essentially got a 6 man midfield against our 4.

Exactly. Against arsenal we should be playing five in midfield (Yacob in for Robson-Kanu)

Fair enough. I thought you meant playing Yacob instead of Livermore. Either way still gives them an extra man.

Without question, first couple of games were more of a transition

Wasted from Brunt.

Scooby Doo · « **Reply #94 on:** December 31, 2017, 04:58:56 PM »

Complete waste of an opportunity. Brunt should know better.

WBAinDEVON · « **Reply #95 on:** December 31, 2017, 04:59:06 PM »

Gary Neville full of praise for our football at last and justifiable , we just need a goal scorer

vrabbit · « **Reply #96 on:** December 31, 2017, 05:00:16 PM »

Save the date, Livermore made a move on the attack to actually make a difference

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #97 on:** December 31, 2017, 05:02:54 PM »

We are not expecting the ball !

WBAinDEVON · « **Reply #98 on:** December 31, 2017, 05:03:40 PM »

I do agree with Arsenal fans there, again brunt wasteful

Scooby Doo · « **Reply #99 on:** December 31, 2017, 05:04:55 PM »

HRK absolutely everywhere. Fully justifying his selection and Pardew his tactics. Getting in behind them well.
