To my count that's six atrocious balls from Balbuena, none of them made under any pressure. Useless.

Gareth Barry is 38, it makes me wonder why the Dave's haven't tried to sign him yet.

He is color blind. Only reason i can think . How hard can it be to find one of any 6 players ahead of him?

It looks like Haller is running on the moon. Should've been able to have a open road to the goal.

It's not even suprising anymore, these players don't need a manager they need a sports phycologist. They're mentally gone. As Paisley once said the first 2 yard are in the head. We're reacting to situations not forcing or creating any.

I do wonder what these players do week in week out in training. We can’t even do the basics, Haller can’t hold up a paper bag. Balbuena can’t even do a 10 yard pass. Zabaleta getting skinned every game :lol: :lol:

Christ almight, they should be three up by now. Woeful defending. Almost like we're inviting them to shoot on goal.

Maybe we underestimated just how important it was to have someone putting the cones out.

If Moyes doesn't take Balbuena off at half-time then I'm convinced he wants to lose this game. He's having an absolute shocker.
