It's a disappointment for sure, but don't we think that some of this is a little bit of an overreaction?Agreed totally. The over re-action to a defeat on this thread is appalling to put it mildly.We played very well against the most resolute defence we have come across all season.How many games have we failed to score. Not many. Top scorers in the league. There are people on here that need to get a reality check.

I'm not judging Alfie just on today. The fact he is so small doesn't help either. The lad can play football, he's no mug, but I'd bet anyone he's not playing league football in 3/4 years time. I genuinely hope I'm wrong, he seems a cracking lad and I'd love for him to do well. I'm just a realist though and trust what I see.

Fans love a tryer, thats why Alfie is popular, theres no doubt theres Raw talent there, but he's not ready yet, especially at the business end of the season, I'll give him a break, but he's not what we need right now
Some nonsense in here,He's been a professional footballer for 12 weeks and people are saying he's not good enough after 1 poor game. Unreal
Imho it wasn't a game for strikers. Their 'tactic' was to play 10-0-0 and it's the first time we have experienced that in this league. Strange from a manager that was bemoaning the use of the same tactic by teams that go and play at their place! Awful, awful to watch and, if we'd have known, we may as well have not bothered. We don't pay good money to go watch that every week.Our efforts at negating said tactic was generally to keep the ball, pass it sidewards and backwards most of the time. Meanwhile, their back 10 walked 3 yards to the left or right and were not stretched one bit. We needed someone to grasp the nettle and run with it. Trouble is, the only player we have that could possibly attempt that is playing right back!Fergie thought his players were 'magnificent' and I agree with that, but....questions need asking about how we are going to combat these sorts of matches, as where we are heading, means we'll come across it more and more, more's the pity. Dreadful game to watch and if that's football, then it's time to pack it in.
