Decent half need to finish our chances.

LovelyCushionedHeader · « **Reply #1 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:21:07 pm »

A team only looking to win set pieces and a referee only interested in awarding them.

12 free kicks in one half with only 41% possession ffs.

Feel like the ball has only been in play for 5 minutes.

Matching them physically, love it!

Anthony Taylor is a Manc C*nt!

Jean Girard · « **Reply #4 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:21:36 pm »

Fuckin Anthony Taylor FFS

Reckon I'd get Diaz on to run at them. This 1 v 1 system they are doing is very high risk. Goals here if we go at them

Agent99 · « **Reply #5 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:21:43 pm »

The playacting and diving needs to be looked at. Pathetic.

Decent enough. 3rd game in a week

That ball in from Fab for the goal was delicious

thaddeus · « **Reply #10 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:04 pm »

I missed the first 30 minutes so can't comment on that. We didn't look very good in the 15 minutes I did see.

Brentford have some very willing runners!

Phineus · « **Reply #11 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:07 pm »

Such a bitty game due to ref.

Not sure why we’re playing long so much, Nunez isn’t winning anything in air.

Fitzy. · « **Reply #12 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:14 pm »

Lost control there. Similar to a few other games this season. Really strong start and then conceded the upper hand.

sminp · « **Reply #13 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:17 pm »

Ref is fucking awful. Núñez has been great, some really good link up play from him today.

They're literally throwing themselves all over the show and the manc c*nt is lapping it up.

The G in Gerrard · « **Reply #15 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:28 pm »

Referee is not allowing game to flow. Brentford are playing for set pieces. We've been decent enough.

RedSince86 · « **Reply #16 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:33 pm »

Taylor is a Scumbag.

How are we not 3-4 up though to stop Taylor influencing the game.

Cruiser · « **Reply #17 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:44 pm »

Get a quick goal in the 2nd and put this to bed please.

David Struhme · « **Reply #18 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:44 pm »

Decent half

Not sure how Mbeumo didn't get sent off - surely Jota is clear through on goal

amir87 · « **Reply #19 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:48 pm »

Darwin takes that chance and Brentford would been deflated. He really is an enigma.

naYoRHa2b · « **Reply #20 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:49 pm »

Good start. Bit of a theme occurring where we lose our way halfway through the half but managed to deal with their set piece threat well.

Nunez should put us 2 up but same story really.

Funky_Gibbons · « **Reply #21 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:52 pm »

How can we have 60% possession yet the foul count is 11-4 to us?

Taylor is trying his upmost to disrupt our rhythm and bring Brentford back into the game.

Coolie High · « **Reply #22 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:22:56 pm »

Would rather us bring in another midfielder think we need a bit more control in there.

kennedy81 · « **Reply #23 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:04 pm »

Sleepwalking a bit there for the last 10. Not sure playing Gakpo so deep is working.

Taylor

You just give in with these referee's at this stage it's beyond brutal.

DelTrotter · « **Reply #26 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:13 pm »

Really good for 30 then fell off a bit, Fab is a step slow to so much defensively now but great pass for the goal. Hopefully get a 2nd and no nervous finish. Their antics and Taylor are very annoying.

macmanamanaman · « **Reply #27 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:14 pm »

I think we should dive as soon as they dive and roll around on the ground next to them. Synchronised diving.

Maybe romantically lie next to the player lying on the ground, hpld hands, looking deep into their eyes.

rushyman · « **Reply #28 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:17 pm »

Their Game plan is to go down and get free kicks in certain areas

Feeding into it

The way to not give fouls away is keep the ball better. Nunez has to have us up 2-0 aswell

Nick110581 · « **Reply #29 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:29 pm »

They have won a lot of free kicks.

They are horrific to watch.

Stockholm Syndrome · « **Reply #30 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:32 pm »

Tierney gave 12 free kicks against us over the entire match last week

Taylor has given 11 free kicks against us by half time

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #31 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:33 pm »

A Manc ref is a real novelty. Nice to see.

Started well, last 15 very scrappy. A second should kill them off but they’re an awkward side to play against because Toney’s hold up play is very good, plus he can win cheap free kicks. Add in the long throws and it just makes for a disjointed, niggly game. Second early in the second half and we should be fine.

By the way, did you see the one long throw that went out off Robertson halfway in our half. They took the throw level with the edge of our box and no-one seemed to notice! Crazy.

Coolie High · « **Reply #32 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:36 pm »

Toney is a Liverpool fan and a terrific player btw.

medley · « **Reply #33 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:41 pm »

Scrappy game to say the least. Playing well in spurts which is about the norm for us at the moment.

Great pass from Trent for the Nunez chance. I know there was spin on the ball but he has to get some connection on it to work the keeper there.

StL-Dono · « **Reply #34 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:48 pm »

We have the incredible ability to foul when we have possession of the ball. Most teams foul when they're defending.

How else can you explain having 60% of the ball, but also being called for 75% of the fouls? Maddening.

Anyway, decent start. Feel lucky we haven't conceded yet. They should feel lucky they haven't conceded 3 yet.

Gonna be a tight second half a la Spurs it feels like.

But the ball from Trent, though...

lgvkarlos · « **Reply #36 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:23:59 pm »

Some good stuff but when we start hitting too many long balls we lose control.

The Test · « **Reply #37 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:24:08 pm »

That high foot Fab yellow card foul was ridiculous, Brentford player ran into his leg from the side.

cdav · « **Reply #38 on:** May 6, 2023, 06:24:24 pm »

Be nice if they gave the offsides as its allowing them to get up the pitch on the second balls, and the less said about the reffing the better

Need to try and play for a bit of territory at times, felt like they were camped in our half for ages. Really nice goal though- scoring how they have been trying to

Been asking that all season. It's game after game after game, every challenge results in a FK to the opposition. Very frustrating, shite to watch, and fucking unfair.
