Don't know about you guys but I don't want to see the 3-4-3 ever again.

FACTS

[WestHamCanadianinOxford]

That was on the defenders

I get it.  And we do t look flat.  But firing Herdman if we lose is not something that should happen.  We are the lowest ranked team in the group.  We are finishing where the standings said we should.

We can do it in concacaf against weaker opposition but up against higher level teams we are getting pulled around and passed through

No. We should always play the 3-5-2. Never 3-4-3. It' dumb. 
Our strength has always been wideplay. 

You have to control the middle in order to get that. 

[Floortom]

In the end - this will be just as embarassing a world cup performance as our last one.

Where's Cornelius again?

[Cicero]

Miller just outrun. Brutal. Borjan, not easy, but not making big stops in this tournament.

At least we got a goal 😖

[Watchmen]

Now on pace to finish 32 of 32 at the tournament.

[JAVIERF]

 Oh the gk again get him hooked out at ht

[trc2014]

Borjan has been dreadful.

Where he should be.

[dyslexic nam]

Just like many thought - it is our defence where we are showing the lack of quality in depth.  Another simple long ball where we are beaten with pace.  Vitoria and Miller simply couldn’t keep up with the attacker to prevent the shot.  And Milan didn’t help things.  

[football_world]

Darn, Borjan just didn't have a good World Cup.  I hope he doesn't decombust for the rest of the game, but damn, I think he can play better than he has in the last 3 games 😔

But Kaye should be starting?  Give me a break.

[Corazon]

We're going to end up 32nd of 32 teams in this World Cup.  Only us and Qatar have 0 points and we are not tied with Qatar on goal differential.

[InglewoodJack]

Is that James Pantemis’ music?

[rdb9ty]

We've been worse and worse with each match, and you have to say Herdman's decision making has been equally as bad. If this was a team full of B listers no one would have any complaints. Instead there's a weird mix of starters, guys who will never play for us again, and were getting smacked

[scullion44]

Takes a lot of effort to concede a goal from En Nesyri. Truly impressive stuff

[Unnamed Trialist]

They're supposed to be professional footballers, so you have to ask for certain minimums. 

Borjan has been garbage today, the team, and certain players especially, are showing little details that suggest a lack of character on the pitch. 

Pissed off like so many others here, we can't play like this, not acceptable.

One ball beats all.....It's happen wayy to many times in these past few games.

1) They're two different positions. 2) I didn't say anything about Kaye.  It's unrelated to this.

Yup but our goals against will be worse this is getting embarrassing, nothing gained here I can’t believe how bad they look here !

[canuckgbp]

Classic long ball. Way to easy. We know Vitoria is slow but Kamal was easily beat for pace as well. Either out of position or just fucking slow. Embarrassing.

Yes, basically an example on the flaws of our team.
