[toledo]

Are we playing for a draw?

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Burrows really can't defend 1 on 1

 

[DromoreBlade]

Painful to watch

 

[ckpe147]

Fotmob has it down as a 3142 is that right??

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

Utterly pathetic. Owners should hang their heads in shame. Once we start conceding we’ll be heading to league one.

 

[Nick Jansky]

29% possession so far. That’s ok, we’ll be able to counter attack at speed.

 

[drblade]

Burrows, so poor

 

[Stevo71]

Piss poor , wtf am I watching?

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Swansea passing it around the back really isn't possession

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

O'Hare so close

 

[The Hobott]

Should have scored

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

If we could get a LWB that matched Seriki we would be in business.

 

[Nick Jansky]

Swansea passing it around the back really isn't possession

True. But they have had three times the shots we have. And without possession you can’t actually have any shots.

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

True. But they have had three times the shots we have. And without possession you can’t actually have any shots.

They have been just as poor as us in the final 3rd. Look at Opoku then. Just did nothing when it was only Arblaster to beat.

Some of you are being pretty mardy over what has been a solid performance so far away from home.

 

[utd4ever]

Just wait until the 2nd half.

Agree. They're toothless as we are. Opoku has been yoiceless

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Can't find a working stream anywhere

Probably doing me a favour

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

Cooper got away with that big time lol

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

I think we started the half quite well and ended it quite well. In between was a bit iffy.

 

[Nick Jansky]

Same.

 

[Hamer's Right Peg]

We have come closest to scoring.

Midfield 3 working well. Just need to be a bit tidier in the final 3rd.

Burrows has to improve, playing like he doesn't want to be here.

 

[Northernsoulblade]

maybe a cheeky little win on the cards

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

I think we started the half quite well and ended it quite well. In between was a bit iffy.

Agreed good first and last 5 mins. 35 mins inbetween has not been good

 

[coolasanidiot]

Cannot fault the effort - they are giving it 100% . Struggling to create, but we did have the best chance. Not all doom and gloom lads.

 

[SB_90]

from an attacking POV. this is quite a depressing start to the league season. 135 mins in & we managed 2 shots on target

 

[espoo blade]

True. But they have had three times the shots we have. And without possession you can’t actually have any shots.

WUEDP?

 

[1973Blade]

To Billy Ocean: Jairo, United can't play without you, but what do you want me to do, coz it's breaking my heart, when you dont start!!

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Ohare just doesnt do enough offensively or creatively (minus the miss-hit that hit the bar)

Most of our attack relies on seriki down the right. The left side and central midfielders really dont threaten offensively at all.

 

[Kenworthy’s Tash]

That was bloody awful

 

[jt64]

If we could get a LWB that matched Seriki we would be in business.

The only way we will get a LWB that is on the same level as the RWB is when Seriki is sold for peanuts
