None of these teams have clicked on yet. Hoof ball and press first half, then Big Val always sees what they have and haven’t got by half time. Changes the front line to exploit the weaknesses, and we play more football in the right areas to exploit it. Simple, and why we roll teams over in second half.
This whole football snobbery is getting really silly. Most weeks we are criticised by opposing staff and supporters because of our style. When we don’t have the ball it’s up to them to express themselves and show us how it’s done. Balls in their court, so to speak.
Sam Morsy was very good at BFC. Most off us were gutted when he left. He'd still be an asset in that CDM role.
Isn't he? When Wigan came to Oakwell he was sat in front off the back four with Joe Williams. His Main strengths are tackling, aggression and breaking up play. I'd certainly play him as a Aapo Halme type
Really? I always had Morsy’s strengths as breaking the lines, driving forward and creating. Regardless, he doesn’t have the athleticism required to perform in our succesful side.
Morsy was a good player for us. I’m not going to start criticising him as a player but he comes off badly here. But seriously just play through us. You’ve got 3 attackers on the bench signed for £25m, £15m & £7m. It’s embarrassing. Whining on twitter because a teams going long & been a bit physical. With all that money spent you should be levels above us.
Nice summary of the issues of the last year or two there. Williams and Morsy being two players who we couldn't afford to keep who left and went to Wigan, paying Championship level wages, then everything that happened.
I find it quite ironic that in the past , post match comments like Barnsley played some really good football the way it should be even though we beat them. Where now were getting the negative stuff like this. The Muppet from Bournemouth was the classic. " im not into this fancy hip hop football which Barnsley play" We go up the field to equalise 2 2. Then go on to win. Let Val do the talking at the end of the season. Whatever happens from now till the end it's been a highly successful adventure . No one can take that away. Talks cheap.
Surely not. No Wigan fan will ever agree that they overspent. They were purely punching above their weight, and whelans involvement in getting them to the prem coincidental - stadium just appeared one morning too. Magic beans
The option to add gifs has been removed for me. I use Tapatalk, and to add gifs, you'd usually click the add file button at the bottom, but the option isn't there now.
If I were a Boro fan I would be furious at them posting crap like that. Are they seriously blaming the opposition for playing in a way they couldn't overcome?
Hilarious that a player who can’t get a game for Boro is critiquing our style of play whilst sat at home powering up his Xbox for an evening of live-streaming himself playing Warzone He’ll go far in the game
This with bells on....seems the "expected to do better" clubs with their multi million pound teams dont like little barnsley taking points off them.
