I think if we could get a Kante type, a fit and firing Todibo and a top striker who can do everything we may well have a good side.

[Massive Attack]

I think you've mistook the body language because they were all gutted to see we snatched a draw from the jaws of victory thanks to Mavropanos the error prone wally. I think they mirrored all our body language at that point.

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

Second best in the second half. I don't know what Lopetegui says at half time but we just looked so passive and lethargic.

It also seems quite apparent  Kudus has had his wings clipped, as he turns back instead of going forwards more often than not. Doesn't look the same player.

 

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

Body language of players and tactics at end suggest he's gone...

 

Don't agree respectfully, our players put in a shift, Bournemouth could have have been a point off top 4 tonight 

 

 

They did put in a shift. An usually good one. But I think the ultra-attacking last ten minutes, the academy subs and some strange body language from some of the players at the end make me think a draw wasn't enough for him.

Maybe I'm wrong. So hang me.

[Massive Attack]

I'll complain I guess.

We just have talented attackers and some talented defenders and our midfield can do some stuff but if a team puts their mind to it, they just blow through that last group.

I like Alvarez and Suacek but both together while not adding A.N. Other with pace - a problem for years - is a recipe for not being able to control a game any time it gets to the business end of anything. 

We lost our way in the middle once he took Soler off. 1st half we looked much more in control for most of it. I would have took Paqueta off instead.

[Haz]

Gotta say, I enjoyed that.  We had the first half and they had the second.  Shame that Mavroclanger gave away that free kick, but it was a good goal.  Onwards and upwards.

At least Alan Smith will be happy.  cսnt.

[Massive Attack]

A point we all would’ve taken before the game.

 

 

Yep. Bournemouth you can tell are some side right now who managed to beat 3 Teams before us tonight and could only draw and we almost won it.

Not Arsenal, Man City, Spurs could do that and we have drawn and beaten them in the Cup this season. 

[goose]

We lost control of the game second half. Kudus was slowing the game down too much, but then Fullkrug was pretty anonymous aside from one missed chance.

Midfield is still the issue, we struggled to keep it and still get played through far too easily.

[Forest Gate Ugly]

Pretty happy. Wouldn’t have taken Kudus off. Plenty of spirit. Good to see the kids on at the end. Lop might just be turning this around. We need to take the first half performance into the next game 

[Massive Attack]

2 Academy kids came on in a frantic high stakes game for the manager who trusted them.

Because he hates the youth and doesn't care of course...

[Mad Ferret]

A point we all would’ve taken before the game.

[wils]

Great game of football. Draw is a fair result. So many positives from that game. Good to see Scarles and Casey get some time. No complaints at all. 

[threesixty]

Fair result. We did pretty well for away from
home at a good side. They needed a world class strike to get anything and we needed a bit of luck too for the penalty. Saw some academy players which I know Moyes would
never have done in a million years, so that’s good. 

importantly I’m seeing a more confident side, I’m seeing a bit more control. I’m ok with this tonight. No major complaints (having said that, when you don’t expect much it’s hard to complain!) 

 

[Helmut Shown]

Back to the ill disciplined rabble for most of the second half.

[Leavemyarcelona]

Excellent first half. Game changed when he brought the kraut on. Kudus held and shielded the ball well caused them problems. My motm coufal or fabianski

[zico]

Well respect the point, that free kick was Payetesque, but Mav was a berk with that challenge. Bournemouth a decent side but another team who gets a most shots ever record against us. Paqueta poor apart from the pen. Kudus not quite been the same since he was told to stop being so selfish and the oldest man in the PL our man of the match. But we had a go so that's a positive. Thought Coufal was going to win it with a left foot volley at the end.

Cheer up - fucking hell.

[lowlife]

Entertaining game, so enjoyable watching us try and win a game and not just go for the low block.

A lot of positives in there, keep it up vs Brighton please.

[nychammer]

Abouts right on balance. ugly hoof ball in the last 10 minutes. The probably had the chances to win but we defended well and Fab MOM

Mavropantsos is just a big lump who is as thick as mince

He has been immen6to be fair

 

He always has a mistake in him somewhere which makes his immense aerial abilities so bloody frustrating

 

 

Everyone makes a mistake during a match. Anything else is just insane. Also they were put under pressure far to often.
