Frankie 8,562 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 In the end, a comfortable win but with lots of room for improvement. Confidence a big factor in that and we could see that crystallise after the 2nd goal. Real Betis on Thursday a big challenge but a run of four home games the ideal opportunity to find better form and increase morale. Positives from today were solid performances from Davies and Yilmaz and I felt Sima really provided the pace and mobility we need in attack to stretch defences. Lawrence really came onto a game and 90mins for him is fantastic news with Cantwell out and Lammers still struggling badly with his form Obviously the injury to Danilo is the main negative but hopefully a mask can expedite his return. Plenty to work on through the team as well. Our throw ins are laughable at times and tempo still a big issue earlier in games. Work to do but a step forward. Enjoy your weekend, bears. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,562 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Incredibly close. The line doesn't look straight but I assume accounts for the camber of the pitch. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

26th of foot 6,082 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 We won 0-2 deservedly because largely, we controlled the game. However, we remain turgid to watch and Danilo's compound fracture compounds our ongoing situation. I suspect they will smell blood in Seville? Now, the important stuff; any suggestions on the accompaniment to fresh oysters? I love the traditional mignonette of red wine vinegar and shallots, also fond of Tabasco and, think some fresh squeezed lemon juice is the thing. Anyone ever attempted the Chablis with peppercorns? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,004 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 (edited) With regard to VAR, as @Rousseau pointed out some time ago the system is fine but interpretation is gong to be just as dubious as the on field refs’.

Agreed, but I don't think offsides need to be interpreted; it's off or it's not. He's off. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We say this every time he does well off the bench late on. Then he starts and he's p*sh because we can't use his pace. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
