Saved by a last gasp goal again!
By: Allan | September 21st, 2010The one thing the lads showed in abundance on Saturday was spirit. I didn’t really agree with Steve Bruce’s assertion that we played well. I think for the second time this season, we’ve snatched something in the dying seconds when we’ve scarcely deserved it. When you consider we were at home, I thought we were a little too negative on Saturday. By filling up the midfield, we allowed Darren to become rather isolated up front. It was still nice seem him get his goal though – he deserved something for all his unselfish running. Their goal was fluke, although in general play, Arsenal certainly deserved something from the game. In situations like that, you got to hold your hand up and say: “we got lucky” and move onto the next one. The funnies bit about Saturday was Ellis and Sir Nial’s celebrations at the end.
Looking back a week, maybe it’s time the gaffer thought seriously about taking the captaincy away from Lee Canttermole. Lee’s a decent player, but Bobby Kerr he ain’t. Bookings and sendings off are becoming a recurring theme, and as I’ve said time and time again, does he really want to play international football? If the manager takes it away from Lee permanently, who should be captain? Lets face it, there’s a distinct lack of leaders in our team. I’ve not always been Anton’s biggest fan, but I think he’s been playing well of late, and maybe now it the time to change it.
The team hasn’t played particularly so far this season, and we’re languishing dangerously close to the drop zone – one win away from the top half and one defeat away from the bottom three! Although it’s still early days, we still look well short of being capable of achieving the widely published objective of a top ten finish. Looking at the situation with a degree of objectivity, it’s hard not to believe that Steve’s jacket isn’t on a shaky peg, if the current form continues and we stop scoring last minute goals.
Before Anfield, there’s league cup business to attend to. A good cup run is something we’ve been sadly lacking of late. A semi or better still, final appearance would show the fans some real tangible signs of progress under our present manager.

It would be much cooler for the #Chargers to trade Vincent Jackson before my fantasy waivers process on Wednesday. Is that too much to ask?

Definitely agree with exactly what you wrote. Your explanation was undoubtedly the simplest to understand. I tell you, I usually get irritable when individuals discuss issues that these people obviously do not know about. You managed to strike the nail on the head and explained every thing with out complication. Perhaps, others can learn from this. Will more than likely be back to learn more. Cheers
