bluephoenix 1,131 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 I enjoyed the game but was frustrated by the number of misplaced passes, To be fair Genk were made to look better than they are by our poor all rounddisplayAVB has a lot to work on ! before clinching our fists on the champions league cup !

Kez 2,727 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Disappointing performance yes. End of the world? no.Although there are players in our team that just aren't good enough anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortilla9 390 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Regarding the penalty, AVB had this to say: "We always assign two players for penalty kicks... On the pitch between Nico and David had to decide". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 All of a sudden we don't look like we can defend anymore. This is really worrying, i have to question Villas Boas's tactics in defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tortilla9 390 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Does anybody think the whole Terry situation has unsettled the squad just a little? Not saying it's a team rift at all just that the team seems discombobulated right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking about this, I think stories like this like when the whole cheating scandal came out effect the team more than we think.

manpe 10,861 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Does anybody think the whole Terry situation has unsettled the squad just a little? Not saying it's a team rift at all just that the team seems discombobulated right now.I had that feeling also. Although the game against Arsenal wasn't as bad as the scoreline suggests, we still created, but our defence was totally fucked... I expressed my concern before that the team (especially the defensive line) might have been unsettled because of Terry, not sure though. And today we didn't play our best squad either, add in some complacency... take away Lamps and Mata, you take away 90% of our creativity. Take away Sturridge and you lose the biggest goal threat. As soon as the trio came on, our game got better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teignman 441 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 A very weak performance against a side that is currently 6th in the Belgian top flight. Errant passes galore. The players didn't look like they were on the same page for most of the match. I will say that I think that Genk played well, but c'mon you have to beat the minnows in this competition. Sorry, but with this game and what happened last Saturday, I'm starting to have awful flashbacks of our bad "moment" last season that started roughly around this time of year.

francozola 2,040 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Haven't seen the game yet unfortunately but I've thought since Saturday that our real test will be against Blackburn and not Genk.Also, re: a comment made earlier about Torres about him being "completely marked out" of the game... jeez if Torres was marked out of the game by KRC Genk defenders........................ anyway I still would like to see his performance against Blackburn before concluding whether he's gone back to his 10/11 'form'.
