Team vs Bournemouth

[ghostrider]

im sure ash sent a mote down to make that decision

He had to have had. It wasn't Rafa's fault so it can only have been Mike Ashley issuing orders.

yes it was ash who told rafa to let mitro go and get a player who has a muscleinjury


im sure it was ash who told rafa we didnt need a defensive mid fielder

i mean all our fizzy players who can beat manure look so good for so long against bournemouth all play so bad suddenly when ash makes substitutions

If only Ashley would let Rafa the messiah make the changes and tactics then we would be world beaters....but....well......shame on Ashley for every issue ever in the entire world in present day and throughout history, even when he wasn't around...because it's all his fault no matter what.

What a load of sh!t.

Sadly, what do you expect.

I assume he took Kenedy off because he kept giving the ball away. Gayle for Hayden made sense as an attempt to try to regain control of the midfield and to give Shelvey more freedom to get forward, but the problem was that they just dropped deeper under the pressure so there wasn't really a midfield battle to win anymore. The players buckled under the pressure - before the first goal we had the game in the bag. Ayoze and Shelvey squandering those chances is what cost us the game.

the manure game he took gayle off for hoss so no striker on after 80mins and hayden came on also both games -
and apparently he took gayle off for a precaution because of his hamstring - according to the cronic

so vertually the same team that resolutely defended for the last 10 mins against manure

Gayle was feeling his hamstring, right decision to take him off and shore up the midfield.Rafa cant be held responsible for the way the players perform on the pitch If Shelvey had scored and we won, we wouldn't be having this conversation, and the 2 clowns wouldn't have been seen.

Correct, if we won we wouldn't be having this conversation.
But we didn't win and we are...because Rafa is a clown for throwing two points away.

so why not be positive and replace him with a forward
the midfield dint need shoring up
we were on top and looking loke the ones to score next

he handed the initative back to them

we should have gone for the 3rd and killer goal
