Looking at the second goal, I think Ferdinand could've stuck a toe in but couldn't be bothered...

Makes your wonder if he's trying to get Brown the sack

There was a moment in the first half where Anton had to force a player out wide and then for a minute or two afterwards he was bent over gasping for breath. I don't think he's deliberately playing badly, he's just out of shape and shouldn't be on the pitch unless he can sort it out.
 
Quite a few around me were implying he could have been quicker for the second - which I found a little harsh but looking at this goal again and again I do wonder if he had been a little more quicker and alert he could have possibly put in a challenge
 
My bad. I thought Coker headed that effort onto the bar, but it looks like it was Demi.

It looked like he had given up TBH.
 
The second looks worse than the first, if that's possible! :facepalm:
 
John White looks equally culpable for the first goal, allowing their man to get in in front of him (and playing him onside in the process). But, yes, AF clearly at fault for the first, but there were still opportunities for others to deal with it.

The standard of those highlights, which include several sections of "action" in midfield and a hopeful cross to an offside Fortune, only really highlight what an absolutely dreadful game of football that was.
 
Think it's a bit harsh singling AF out for the second goal, not as if anyone else did much!!

Indeed Kightly and Timlin ball watching and slow for the first goal. If Turner had still been on the pitch for the second goal, he would have attacked the looping header from Bolger. Still great 'assist' from their lad with one touch and Madden showed us what you get if have the money....Alive, moving and the instinct to score.
