he changed the team against Wolves from the the previous league games...I think some of our players are just limited tbh. For example pick Dier/Davies and we may as well give up...can’t pass wind never mind the fackin ball
To be honest though bro, there wasn't one person on here (unless I missed it) who was happy with that line up when it was announced. It was still running the key players into the ground - who right now aren't even performing better than anyone due to being ****ed - whilst going ultra defensive with a back five, a DM and a player who gets shivers at the thought of passing the ball forward. For him to then say the plan wasn't to defend deep was just madness, especially as he took our only creative mid off for Sissoko . Something just seems to have gone well wrong with him in recent weeks, man. Can't lie I'm not liking it. Football has been dour and the squad management has been poor.
im not likening it...it’s tough viewing...I’m just trying to stick it out...it’s the same man who’s got us going into the new year still in all comps. People can give up on the league if they want but I don’t think I can whilst I know there are 66 points still to play for. We still need a few quality additions
I still think we can get top four but he's just gotta manage the squad better - and go back to the counter attack that was generally working so well, as well as choosing not to sit back against gash like Palace or getting turned over at home by Leicester because we lacked ambition to dominate the game. I'd happily back him though if he made it obvious that he was going all out for cups and putting top four on the back burner. For instance I'd take finishing somewhere like 6th-8th if we went all out for the cups - and won one (or two). But I think if he's trying to win cups and finish top four, he can't expect Kane, Son, Hojbjerg etc to be playing 90 mins in practically every game because eventually we'll likely crash out of cups and finish outside the top four if our key players are playing **** or injured.
Before anything else, let me just state this is pure SPECULATION by the usual clout-chasing Twitter/Reddit types who are hoping that they might coincidentally have got something right and hold that over their followers/fellow posters for years to come, but there's plenty of people who have convinced themselves and/or are trying to convince others that Lucas and Vini are missing tonight's game due to Covid The only reason I bring this up is because this theory posits that the cause of this is directly linked to The Sheikh Mansour Team's win over Arsenal last week, as Gabriel Jesus then met up with a few Brazilian friends in London afterwards, so that automatically means that Lucas and Vini were there Hopefully in a few days this turns out to be a bad creepypasta that was unintentionally posted on r/soccer instead of r/nosleep, but I'm just getting it out there in case it drip-feeds onto here a few days from now like so many other previously debunked things involving our players have so far this season
It's this weird thing where r/soccer has convinced themselves that there's a Covid outbreak amongst all of the Premier League's Brazilian players The fact that Joelinton wasn't one of the Newcastle players who tested positive (Fabian Schar, Jamaal Lascelles, Allan Saint-Maximin, Isaac Hayden and Federico Fernandez were) somehow escapes them...
There's a decent chance that a number of the others know each other via the national team or each other, though. Joelinton's rather isolated and isn't capped above U17 level. Not sure how he got a work permit, to be honest. The fee? It's probably bollocks, but there are a few Brazilians out at the same time, so someone's going to try and link them.
Remember the good old days, when people didn't try racially profiling pandemics? ...a sentence which was possibly used sometime in 1919
I don't think it's racial profiling, more suggesting that they may have spent time together during the festive period.
A little tongue in cheek, but there's certainly something unpleasant about how serial lockdown-flouter Kyle Walker having Covid has dropped out of the conversation almost as soon as it entered the conversation and been replaced by people scouring training galleries for "proof" that there's an outbreak of Covid among all the Premier League's Brazilian players And let's be honest here, when I say "Brazilian players" I'm not talking about David Luiz...
I don't understand it when people say certain teams have an advantage because they have a bigger squad. Better-yes, but bigger?
