Papercut

Two omts = two clean sheets. Go me.
The other one was against Norwich right?

Ok I am frustrated today. I feel like we didn't want it enough. We really lack someone or players at times who say "you know, a point against the bottom club isn't enough here". I just felt, just like last season v Sunderland away, or QPR away, we didn't really go for it. They were there for the taking. Credit QPR for their work rate, but they had zero ambition. I understand why they did it but that is out problem and we failed to do something about it.
Just hope QPR now beat our rivals.
Think your being over critical, don't think they were there for the taking, they set out for the draw and on that pitch it's difficult to break anyone down. Don't think there was a lack of effort either, just think too many attacking players had an off day, missed controls and poor passes + we don't have that X factor creative player who does something out of nothing, the ginola, gazza, berbatov. Bale's good but he's as much about pace as anything, those others would create something in a shot glass!Ok I am frustrated today. I feel like we didn't want it enough.

I agree with you. I thought our attitude today was poor.
Thought it was best illustrated when Lennon came off. 10 minutes to go, 0-0 away against the bottom team and he just slowly walked off. No hurry, no need to get going. Seemed almost like we were happy with the 0-0 and trying to waste time.
First 10-15 minutes of the second half we looked good, but after that we didn't really look threatening.
I really missed Ekotto today, thought we really missed some purposeful passing. Can't think of a single good forward pass made by any of our full backs today, but that might just be my memory.
at home. oohhhh yer. that form wins you titles lads.

Maybe, like me, he was disappointed in being taken off.?
I still think he was the one to unlock that defence
Lennon couldn't unlock a tin of beans. Like braineclipse, I was annoyed at him strolling off.
Went to the game today but from where I was sitting it just lacked so much pace, impetus, desire and vigor. What really tinkled me off is the last ten mins it was QPR looking more likely to score and showing DESIRE to score whilst we were too busy just prancing around doin jack brick. I dont blame them for parking the bus.
When we are bad we really are bad.
his passing was not poor but the majority think it was so whatever.
