We made significantly more passes forwards than backwards and more passes in both the middle and final third as opposed to along the back line.

I know we didn't score. I am addressing the argument that "we only keep the ball at the back".

As someone else pointed out lets see how the next 3 games go. All winnable. And sče whether Lambert's latent tactical genius transformation bears fruit.

Starting today. Poyet is already getting his excuses in.

We made significantly more passes going forwards than backwards.  Is this what it's come to.

Well if you want to defend the joke manager we have you can't resort to goals, possession, shots, style, excitement, tempo, passion, organisation... our expecatation went from scoring some goals, gradually down to having more shots and currently lies at how many times do we pass the ball forward.

Lambert is a clown.

We really didn't,  a lot of the possession was cycling the ball around in midfield, which is okay if it goes somewhere, but for 85 minutes it just didn't go anywhere anything like often enough. If I'm honest the side we reminded me of most was the baggies side from a few years back who went down having fannied about with the ball but created nothing for an entire season.

If we've scored 22 goals by the time we've played 36 games I would suggest we will be in serious trouble.

[aj2k77]

The lowest we've ever scored is 36 so the clown has to conjure up another 26 goals in 20 games to avoid breaking another record.

It's things like this that make arguing about stuff on the internet a fairly pointless exercise.

"We hardly ever passed forward. It was always backwards and to the side"

"Actually we made more passes forward than either back or to the side"

"AND THAT MAKES EVERYTHING ALRIGHT DOES IT?!?!?"

"sigh"
