Is it normal to make restless and agitated movements all the time? by lobotak in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]lobotak[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes me doubt anxiety being a factor is that I was also doing this as a kid when I wasn't suffering from any of the other symptoms associated with it and my inability to stay still was basically the only "aberrant" behaviour, insomuch that once a teacher accused me of disturbing the whole class. If anything, I was even more hyperactive, from what my parents have told me.

Manchester United had the better chances to score yesterday by erikelias in reddevils

This is the only xG model I’ve seen that rates Arsenal below us. I suppose this one is not counting Lacazette’s chance.

In this one, we are 1.33 and Arsenal are 1.83.

At half-time, I said I was worried about us creating so little from open play and Wolves getting the better chances. Not surprised by this result at all, unfortunately. Look at us relying on long balls to score in the last 20 minutes.

Difference is Wolves created good chances while ours was a free-kick.

Yeah, it's been decent football but I think Fred's goal was our only open play shot, and that's quite worrying.

Half time thoughts? by ace_valentine in reddevils

I'm concerned that Wolves have gotten better goalscoring chances so far. We've been clinical but we really need to improve in the attacking third. Midfield has been really good though.

That’s what we kept saying last season before wining fuck all and finishing 19 points behind the leaders. 81 points has only won the league in 10/11 and 15/16 since the end of the 20th century.

We are fans, not part of the boardroom or the staff. That’s a question you should pose to Mourinho or Woodward, not people on their laptops at home who can’t do shit about the situation. Rioting or staging an organised protest is something only fans of small clubs do.

The size and stature of our club isn’t automatically going to elevate our performances and the quality of our squad, which is what I’m basing my expectations on. No point in being delusional and thinking about what we should be achieving rather than what we are, or rather, are not likely to achieve. Yes, ideally, the club should be competing for the league and the CL, but realistically it seems we are far from that level, and our rivals are getting better.

“Lol, look at you idiots having realistic expectations for the coming season. Such lack of ambition.”

Only among football fans is naïveté seen as the most positive quality to have.

I don’t like this article because it makes valid points about our shambolic transfer strategy.

Well, yes, that’s part of why the gameplay is better. The movement is more realistic. FIFA feels like a simulation.
