Also, if anyone is looking avoid the QPR - City score I would recommend avoiding this thread.
Stoke go up 1-0. Pathetic, pathetic stuff there. Keeper most likely just fumbled away their chance to stay up.
The ball is in Bogdan's hands, Walters knocks it out of them and into the goals, and the referee takes a little nap. 1-0 Stoke.
Wow. That was bs. The goalie should have made that impossible though, never seen a goalie mess up so often.
I hate Stoke. They just rely on seeing how many fouls they can get away with. Ream has done exceptionally well dealing with balls in the air so far.
Say what you will about their defense or goalkeeping, Bolton are completely unable to mount an attack right now.
Stoke is horrible to watch, but eveyone can't play like Arsenal. I enjoy the mixture of styles. I really hope Stoke go after Fletcher from Wolves. He could be a one man arial machine for them, and a good partner to Crouch.
and thats what they have to do right now, they might as well go 4-3-3 and throw the kitchen sink at them now, they have no choice in the matter.
Not sure how you can blame the keeper on that one. In the sport of soccer generally you are not allowed to bundle the goalkeeper into the net. In fact I'm not sure any sports where you are allowed to body check the goalkeeper into the net. Hockey no, lacrosse? Just un-freakin-believable.
Our midfield is getting absolutely overrun. I don't think we've collectively had the ball for 10 minutes in the first half.
yeah......writings on the wall it seems. Bolton are obviously a class below right now and are getting whats coming to them.
