Mattyp_avfc Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Lovely goal for Westy!!! Capped off a second half performance (After the subs) which warranted the comeback!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I'll take that after a truly shocking first half. Subs made the difference. Great goal by Westwood who also had a part to play in our first goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted November 25, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 25, 2013 After the disastrous start you have to be happy with a draw. Well done to PL for the subs, even if the formation wasn't the best in the beginning. Luna in for Baker next game, and Lowton in aswell. Sylla out.

Popular Post darrenm Posted November 25, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2013 shocking selection first half slow no passion, no skill second half, take off the ones having a mare and put the 3 who should have started and what a surprise? we play better, we attack and we score it isn't rocket lambert Almost as if... they weren't fit enough to start the game but half an hour wasn't too much of a risk. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 So are we shit or good? Average. Doesn't exist. We're either good or bad. Don't you know this? Why don't you offer your own opinion and discuss the game instead of turning everything in to a point scoring contest. All you've done all game is try to lock horns with other posters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaIRE Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I thought Vlaar was terrific once again today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alakagom Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) The longs ball to Benteke are pissing me off now... So does the constant offsides by Benteke.. Game of two halves, good come back, still LOTS to improve. Edited November 25, 2013 by Alakagom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Again, outside the first 20 minutes, I certainly think we were in the match from then onwards. We looked very nervous but I had every faith we'd turn it around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1000 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Pleased with a point after the first half performance, WBA are a decent side. I'm impressed by the improvement in tenacity, would we have come back from 2-0 down against them last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 First half absolutely awful aswell as the start of the second half. Then Delph, Gabby and Andi come on and we look like a totally different team, pressing high up the pitch, winning 50/50 balls and loads of energy. Gabby played very well, chasing down the ball and then producing the cross which lead to our second goal was excellent. Vlaar MOTM- He was the best of our shit defence in the first half and he was the reason we didn't go in 4 down at half time. Looked assured on the ball and was quite happy to go forward with the ball which is encouraging to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BOF Posted November 25, 2013 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2013 Lambert understandably sticks with team that beat Cardiff, then changes personnel & system when it's not working, rescuing a good point. Nicely done. Good stuff in the end. Hopefully we start against Sunderland with the side that finished this game. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.I.C.O. Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Dreadful first to concede (although a good finish), and I really feared for us after that Bacuna blunder. Probably the worst first half performance this season. Second half, not much was changing, Lambert gambled, it paid off, all three subs gave the boys a lift. KEA's goal was a brave team effort, Westwood's was sublime. Benteke was wasteful, not a very good performance. Weimann isnt ready to play regularly yet. Vlaar was immense. I bet after that first half the commemorative DVD was already being recorded for the olbiyun club shop. Well you can stick it up your arse, olbiyun tossers! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordSepulchrave Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I'm exhausted after that. Good point - disappointed they looked so superior to us technically, but we raised out tempo when we needed to and just overwhelmed them at the end. Benteke looked better as a midfielder than a striker here. Not great. Seems like Lambert wanted to keep things tight until the final half an hour and then hit them with Delph, Weimann and Ags. Got it half right today, but considering the injuries you can't blame him for that line-up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
