2-0 up on goal kicks

OldCastleSwift

Very predictable so far. Nine behind the ball, still getting carved open.

Antonio on his own and chasing hopeful punts against a pacy defence.

thornburyiron

This is going to be a long hard watch.

thornburyiron

We had the ball for 10 seconds there.

OldCastleSwift

Cresswell just trapped the ball with his hand but got away with it.

Yeoldhammer

Our passing is atrocious. Route 1 hoof.

OldCastleSwift

We are getting breaks but doing nothing with them.

This has 'only a matter of time' written all over it

OldCastleSwift

Antonio is not cultured enough to play the lone striker role. He needs a foil to work off.

SuzanneClaret

It’s very hard to drink gin when your heart is in your mouth!

SuzanneClaret

Nice to hear the away fans though :scarf:

OldCastleSwift

Dreadful going forward. No movement or footballing intelligence whatsoever.

thornburyiron

Not sure forward is in their vocabulary

OldCastleSwift

Another goal conceded from a set piece.

We really are a terrible football team.

thornburyiron

Probably game over. Useless.

Adam

Wonderful. Why is Cresswell marking Rodri? We have more ‘big’ players than them.

OldCastleSwift

And straight from the kick off, long punt forward towards Antonio and cleared by the defence.

Well done Moyes

Let's invite pressure for 90 minutes against one of the best teams in the world despite the fact we are awful defensively

Awesome

When can this season end

buffybegood

Shocking to concede from a corner.

Yeoldhammer

Can we put Bowen on now?

Hamstew

Floodgates

thornburyiron

If Bowen is not ready for PL games then he could move on before he’s kicked a ball for us.

Hamstew

Moyes is a woeful manager. Stealing a living.

thornburyiron

Not only are we not going forward we’ve now perfected running backwards.

OldCastleSwift

So panicked in midfield.

Honestly, I've seen League One teams with more about them than we have.

steve

This so hard to watch :weep:

Pengeman

Masuraku has been woeful in attack and easily beaten ion defence. Actually, Fredericks hasn't been any better. We are still in the game and can nick a point. Maybe change the formation to 4-5-1 and bring on Bowen for Masuraku.

Lukerz

Who knew that 5 defenders and 5 midfielders would see a performance like that

EXETERHAMMER

Watched Exeter City play Pompey last night. I do genuinely think Exeter would give Man City more of a problem than West Ham.
