McKenna blundered today 17:55 - Aug 27 with 3709 viewspointofblue

Ladapo for Harness was a non-sensical decision and left John-Jules marooned out the game on the left where he had absolutely no impact. Admittedly, he tried correcting it if sorts by bringing him in field and playing him in the number ten position but that didn’t work either.

At half time the error should have rectified - Ladapo off, Harness on with John-Jules moved up front, but we had to wait until we’ll over the hour mark for the sub to occur. If Harness was tired and could only do half hour then Aluko or, at a stretch, Jackson should have been introduced instead.

Yes, the referee was dreadful. Yes, we should have been given a third goal plus potentially a penalty. Yes, I would love to know who should have been marking their second scorer. But tactically we were slow, ponderous and too few outlets for the first hour and a bit, which was down to the errors from the bench.

I thought Chaplin was the only one of the front 3 that started who wasn’t misfiring. He’s such a clever player at finding space.


Stunning free kick.

I think the point made was he was misfiring and I get that. He was busy, worked extremely hard and tried his best to find that clever pass and make it happen….but, it didn’t quite come off for him today. My boys called it and were spot on, too many passes went astray.

However, that is a feature of playing the #10 role and having to be inventive. Sometimes it doesn’t quite come off. Not for the want of trying though. Cracking player.

Pretty sure Walton made one really good save low to his left first half .


That was early second half. Fine save.

Tbh, that's a fairly common feature with Chaplin. He is a cracking player, and has a knack of making things happen, but he can at times be a pretty untidy and give away possession cheaply. But as you say, that comes from the fact that he is always looking to be positive, to try and make something happen.

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.
