Match Thread Portsmouth (h)

[Micky]

we are shocking at the back!

 

[Nottingham Fox]

Konchesky having a dreadful game so far.

 

[Cate Fox]

Can I shoot Konchesky now?

 

[The Deacon]

I can't see us not conceding again at this rate.

 

[Polar Bear]

It's that Portsmouth manager, I tell you; he's instructed his players to carve slices of flesh from opponents' limbs for his post-match hotpot.

 

[Mawsley]

You filthy little man.

Yes. With tongues.

And thank you

 

[Mawsley]

Poor defending, poor support from midfield.

Could do with putting the foot on the ball and killing off Pompey's possession.

Bossing the game so far even in midfield. Soft goal to give away but Abe is standing out today as brilliant. Schlupp looks good as does King.

 

[Micky]

On that showing we need about 6 new players.

Abe terrible.
Konchesky poor.
Bamba a liability.
Wellens and King fairly anonymous.
Nugent is crying out for a strike partner who he work off. Schlupp looks very promising but he is very raw and has no understanding with Nugent.
Gallagher useless apart from dead balls and when he has got loads of time.

On the plus side I thought Mills was pretty good that half apart from the odd hoof.

Theres gonna be more goals I reckon. Seems strange not celebrating Nugents goal other than a fist in the pocket and a muffled Yes

Whose 'pocket'?

It's funny how people see things differently. Whilst Abe can sometimes pick out a good pass I think he is far too weak and often does not commit to a challenge, allowing the opposition to gain possession and impetus.

 

[Motown Fox]

Looks to me like Portsmouth are doing very well to me and thats not just cos I'm in a Pompey pub.
We need to give a bit of passion like yhey are but without the nasty fouls.

:icon_eek:

 

[PFKAKTF FOX]

We seem to have a decent shape about us midfield and front 3 look good, a little shaky at the back but I think that is down to the change in formation. Schlupp looks a threat and I think if we can get him in involved in dangerous areas he will score or set something up. All in all pleased with what I have seen.

 

[Motown Fox]

Mine lol.

Theres about 10 or so postal workers in here so I think Portsmouth area had its post early today.

All I've seen is him chasing every player in the middle, winning a lot of tackles and covering for the defence when needed. It'll do for me.

I think he does a lot of chasing round and often to no effect. For me there are too many occasions where he stands off the bouncing ball or the tackle and he allows the opposition to gain easy ball.

Also, it was his crap pass out that lead to the goal.

Before 2pm? You're having a laugh. They'll do their rounds after a few pints at about 4. That is, if they've not binned the letters and not until they've 'accidentally' opened anything that feels like it's got money in.

 

[Micky]

We are shocking. Standing off, no confidence, no organisation. FFS!
