Bournemouth (A) 23/8: Build-up & Match Thread

[wanderer89]

How is that dumb fuck a captain? Wouldn't trust him to organise a piss up in a brewery let alone a defence/team.

Blatant red, 3 game ban for Toti

Professional foul, will be one game.

At least we have plenty of cover in that LCB position.

Great so if we lose 1-0 it gives the apologist another excuse

Who's the apologist?

 

[Del Woppio]

That'd be a pretty cool username

Oh the SM clowns who love a jolly good effort

Lads on Sky say it was very soft, but he put 2 hands on the player and as soon as he felt that, he just went down.
Dead soft but so easy for the ref to give a 2nd yellow.
But yes, brainless is right.
Very oafish.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

If only Arias had scored.

 

[Hawkguy]

Oh nice. We're still gonna go with 3CBs.

Playing to maintain the loss, nice.

He didn't give a second yellow, he gave a straight red for the professional foul.

 

[Wolf Hunting]

Arias being sacrificed, slopes off feeling sorry for himself.

 

[Del Woppio]

531 is definitely the right formation

 

[Jinky]

Absolutely hilarious. Santi B coming on for Arias (to keep our defensive shape). Let’s not worry about who might score at the other end - just keep that GD down so we stay above West Ham.

It wasn't a second yellow, it was a straight red.

The other player should have got a yellow for diving though.

Jackson - Agba - Doc - H. Bueno

Ugh.

 

[jd1981]

He was going off regardless so its neither here or there.
Our tactics look like it’s to stay in the game and nick a set piece goal

 

[EnglishBob]

A red and a yellow in the same match, impressive.

Might be time to revoke his green one. Where do we find these 'players'?

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

What the fuck sub is that!?
