    Graeme Jones

    Aye, i agree, not Jones biggest fan after seeing how he set up the team in theese 3 matches but still the result of 2 points in thoose 3 games is 2 more points than i think we would have had under Bruce
  2. Even though i do not like how Jones has set up the teams in theese 3 games, 2 points out of them is still 2 more points than i would have dared to hope under Bruce, so with howe coming in and hopefully that means its upwards and onwards for us from here.
  3. jesus, its like most of our players are never anticipating getting ball allways caught when passed to on their heels and not ready so frustrating to watch...
  4. My main gripe with tactics and formation is that we are playing joselu and diame, it is understandable to sit back and try to stay compact, but i feel like having merino and gayle instead of the two i mentioned would give us more time and chances of a counter, so far most of the time we get ahold of the ball it ends up being some sort of game of hot potato that ends up with lumping it forward towards joselu who doesnt have the pace to beat anyone there
  5. If you mean that iceland's national sport is not football, that is wrong, it is our most practised sport so i would say it is our national sport:P even though we have had more international success in Handball, but football is nr 1 sport in iceland atm
  6. not to sure about AlfreĆ°, would prefer on Kolbeinn from ajax if we are gonna take a icelandic striker from the dutch league i think he has more to his game than AlfreĆ°

    Alan Pardew

    what is driving me nuts is that we seem to not be able to attack with pace... its like players are under instructions to hold on the ball and slow the play down when we attack
  8. Anyone know why schalke are playing in their third kit and chelsea in their home kit when the match is in gelsenkirchen ?
  9. I think you must be able to see the difference between settling and celebrating a draw before the game, and then celebrate a draw in a game like this, when we go down to 10 men but manage to stay strong and high and weather the storm esp. when we have capitulated in similar or even not so bad situation in the past.
  10. Not to take anything from lagerback but this is mainly down to the fact that we are starting to reap the rewards of the massive overhaul of our youth system/infrastructure which began in the early 2000's. we've build around 10 indoor full sized artificial grass pitches, 20 outside artificial pitches and some 130 smaller kickabout fields at schools since then. this has given our young kids almost 2 - 4 days a week of indoor training a week over the winter months instead of having to train outside in the cold on gravel or inside some horse stadiums like when i was younger :=) the youth coaches are almost all professional coaches and around 60% have uefa b coaching license instead of just some random parent of the kids taking over the coaching role as i understand is the norm in some countries with the young kids
  11. since when have we gone the easy way? its not over yet.... we have been decent against the "big" sides this year esp. at Sjp 5 points from the last games could be just enough if other results go our way
  12. most likely. game is lost... if we would have netted 2 perhaps from thoose chances he would still be on i reckon but its a lost game now
  13. man missed 4 great chances now... could have been equal with a tad bit of luck
  14. I think it was just basicly his manager didnt want to play him because he preferred more defensive midfielders or something like that.. just didnt want to play him
