pretty poor half that, we're looking a bit out of sorts

[Mattshark]

That was dog ****, hope we can step it up in the second half.

We have too as Brum are very good at the back and difficult to beat.

wow that describes our season

r. keane scored a pen for celtic, so they won.

Its a very flat first half performance from us, with no urgency. Worse of all Brum are very poor and giving away possesion so the game is there for the taking - if we want it.

[Bender]

why is it flat? why is there no urgency? for me it comes down to the players not responding to the managers talk and tactics

Yep players not listening. Maybe they are also a bit tired from the thursday night match aswell.

Players seem flat-footed, seem to need 5 touches on the ball and half an hour to make a pass.

[vlahka]

If they arent listening why isnt Rafa screaming at them instead of casually watching? I think thats the tactics he went for, slow build up and keep possession like usual.

Probably a bit to do with midweek actually.
