Congratulations on that great victory! You really taught those Chinese gamblers a lesson!
Seriously big collapse and lost their bottle,they could have at least made a game of it.
It was like a training session for City.
A lot of teams will take note of how Liverpool (and Arsenal tbf) can easily collapse during matches.
Im glad we never just sat behind the ball with 10 men pulis or portugese pulis style hoping to not concede anymore. Im also really not arsed about shipping 5 either, like klopp said , better to lose 5 nil once than 1 nil five times.
Fair point .
Although I am a little concerned about the 2 Manchester clubs running away with it this season.
Thats a rather childish way of looking at it. Given the way things went Jose or Pulis would have parked the bus after the red card hoping to get to 80 mins without conceding any more and then they would have had a go and tried to sneak an equaliser.
Not changing tactics when you are a man light against a side so good in posession and when your game plan is based on pressing is Wenger-esque in its naivety and if it wasnt for Minger it could easily have been 7 or 8.
But when you start with Klavan then you'll always get what you deserve. The first goal (when we had 11 men by the way so the smoke screen Jurgen has been trying to throw out there that nearly taking a blokes jaw off wasnt a red doesnt wash here) is just a dead straight ball from the centre circle to the edge of the D and there is no one there to cut it out. And watch the last goal - hapless Klavan looks like hes doing the hokey cokey with not the faintest idea whether he should close the player down or not.
People think Fergie only played attacking football but in 96 when Newcastle were top and the best attacking team in the country he went to St James's having to win and parked the bus and Cantona popped up with the winner to start the Toon collapse. Thats what good managers do - they assess the opposition and the situation and set their team up with the optimum chance to win.
Pep and Jurgen are blinkered and naive with their unshakeable 'philosophies'. They just attack and if on the day the luck goes their way they win if not they lose. Before the red card it was fairly even and both sides looked vulnerable at the back and looked like conceding. So had it stayed that way who knows how the match would have panned out?
It's the footballing equivalent of Partridge's hot apple pie mexican stand off theory: 'The temperature inside this apple turnover is 1,000 degrees. If I squeeze it, a jet of molten Bramley apple is going to squirt out. Could go your way, could go mine. Either way, one of us is going down.'
If they think defending is so pointless why even bother with a keeper when you could throw an extra forward up top? I would actually have more respect for them then because at least they would be standing by the courage of their convictions of their attacking 'philosophy'.
Classic stuff.
Oh,and Frank De Boer sacked already ?
Absolutely disgusting decision,Steve Parish.
I could in his body language yesterday during the match,that he already made his mind up.
Not the best season start by Norwich, I see. How have they played so far?
Utter lunacy.
Pulis, Warnock, Pardew, Allardyce.
After watching all that you understandably decide you want a bloke to come in and make you play like Ajax with players who have been trained to play agricultural football for the last 5 years and he gets 4 games?
And then after sacking the guy you turn to a bloke who is surely unemployable after his total mental breakdown on the job a year ago and if he'd had any decency would have taken himself off to Dignitas after presiding over the two most disastrous tournament performances in history.
Really hope Palace go down now as this is a disgrace. Hope Newcastle go with them due to Mike Ashley's parsimony and given that Arsenal aren't going to go down I'd round the relegation candidates off with West Han just because they are such a grubby little club.
He might yet. Huddersfield nick this and tomorrow Palace and London Utd will be scrapping to get his signature.
I think Palace were sniffing him. If they're serious why not make a massive offer to Watford rather than kill their season stone dead by appointing yesterday's man Hodgson?
Mind you if I was Silva I'd bide my time. Cant be long before someone offers him a decent job. He's been very impressive in his short time in the premier league.
Very much so, and one to follow for sure. Won't be at all surprised if Watford is a top-ten team by the end of the season.
Not the best really, however we have had a lot of players leave and also a lot of new players arrive. Also having recruited a new Manager in Daniel Farke who we got from Borussia Dortmund. They need to start BONDING together. Forgive the pun! Lol!
Didn't you see my post about using the F word? Oh wait...my bad.
Hahaha don't give up the day job,Nackers.
I'm sure they will. I like what Farke is trying and looking to achieve at Norwich. I like his manner and demeanour and can see he is a man who knows what he wants.
I knew when they appointed him as Manager? He would get me into trouble on this thread! Lol! Funny thing is on tranfers day, we signed a 20 year old centre forward from Clubbe Bruge called Pierre Fonkue! So we now have Farke and Fonkue which sounds like a very no nonsense solicitors! Lol!
He was in charge of Borussia Dortmund 2? Which I assume is the reserves as a guess? But he took them to 2nd in the respective league.
Farke and Fonkue ? sounds like a comedy double act !
Adult movie producers!!! Lol!
How many will we concede? :))
I was going to say that but didn't want to get flagged by some 'billy-no-mates-' on here hahaha ;)
Hahah! Farke and Fonkue will be a favourite of many sports commentators!
I think they may let me off as these are real people and also they probably feel sorry for me being a Norwich City fan! I lean heavily towards the latter?!!! Lol!
I see your point...and being an Arsenal fan ,i know how you feel.
