Besiktas - Match Thread

[Kenneth]

Too ****ing selfish at times

I think we need some of that. Wouldn't be a problem if he can get some on target.

[bigfooty]

We certainly have the better of them in the midfield with Mascher + Gerrard but the passing in the final third is hit and miss, Kuyt from deep hits it between two players for a throw to the Turks.

[Helios Creed]

Yeah but Torres is injured

True.

[Kenneth]

Babel's gonna score some rockets for us. Probably not enough, but some screamers.

[tomasjj]

Voronin's decision making is starting to piss me right off.

Those two players on his right were not even thinking about making a run down the right, though.

[Helios Creed]

Gone a bit scrappy the last few minutes as we approach the half hour mark.

Crowd still bouncing around like a bunch of nutters.

Babel turns, takes it on, trys to curl it and just misses. Nice bit of play by the youngster.

Hope he tries it again.

[Kenneth]

Totally f*cking unacceptable. I'm f*cking fuming at the pricks.

Blame lies squarely on Carra's shoudlers imo.

[bigfooty]

Nice bit of play by Pennant but Finnan's cross is blocked.

A good cross from the right by Kuyt goes over everyone's head and out.

We've not dropped since the goal, still the better side, but struggling to find that bit extra to fashion real chances.

[tomasjj]

Keeper wouldn't have had a chance if that Babel shot had been a little lower.

[FatTony]

we're committing rather too much upfront now, I worry about a counter.

[bigfooty]

Few tackles flying around in midfield, Gerrard n Kuyt getting stuck in.

Finnan cross flighted across the goal, comes out to Gerrard who has a touch to set himself but his shot is charged down by a melee of black shirted players.

[Helios Creed]

We certainly have the better of them in the midfield with Mascher + Gerrard but the passing in the final third is hit and miss, Kuyt from deep hits it between two players for a throw to the Turks.

Who are you talking to?

[red g]

gerrard off , sissoko on

[Joe King]

The sort of game that Benayoun would have been perfect for
Sub Voronin for Benayoun and play Babel up front

[desertscouser]

Blame lies squarely on Carra's shoudlers imo.

It really was a case of the 3 stooges.
