well its January, time to dig deep splash out, there are a lot of teams abroad struggling, if we can get the work permits now there's bargains to be had
Its the one good thing to come out of our arsekicking today Shako, and that is our good mate TC is still alive and kicking, he only shows up when we get beat
Players have to share responsibility but Bielsa totally got it wrong today and was the main reasons for the performance, or rather lack of it, the line up for the formation played was totally wrong, to only take 1 recognised CF and then take him off at Half time was baffling to say the least. The 3 changes at half time were head scratching too. Why play the clown, he's finished at this club and the sooner he goes the better. Costa showed yet again he has nothing to offer, he's gutless, another who needs to go. Another chapter in our ever growing list of FA Cup embarrassments.
maybe he thought ill play them to put some in the shop window, they may not be good enough for Leeds but the lower clubs would love to have them
Dread to think how we'd do if we ever qualified for the Europa! Copa Del Rey looks piss easy Europa not so much And managed 10th in the league.
I thought all but Ringo had died, bit surprised with TC getting excited about millwalls bigger better local rivals winning.
They're only achievement was to go down in value. The system was all wrong, after viewing the first half, we needed Phillip's in midfield, going back to a back 4, then he should have moved, Struijk in with Cooper, Shackleton at RB and Davis or Alio at LB, we weren't great but other than 1 save neither were they, it was a bore fest. Those second half subs were unbelievable, where were players supposed to be playing, there was no formation as such, they played well but we handed it to them on a plate.
The NHS have asked if Casilla will go and work on the Covid wards, as there's no chance he'll catch anything.
Casilla showed just how good Meslier is. No idea why a keeper needs to be rested. I suspect Bielsa was giving Kiko a chance to unseat Meslier. He failed utterly miserably. I think Struijk was covering Philips 1st half and then Jenkins had a go 2nd half. We're going to miss Kalvin. Hopefully Llorente is fit enough to cover. Costa and Poveda did nothing first half and Rodrigo is not a CF. I hope that this doesn't start a poor run like it normally does but with Philips missing our next game I'm worried. It was a **** show of a performance. Too many Billy big bollux thinking they just had to turn up. It's fkn embarrassing. The absolute worst fkn bit of all of it was that their delivery from set pieces was better than ours ever is and their finishing was quality. Gutted
Just 2 Premier League teams lost so far to lower league opposition. Us and West Brom. At least there's was on pens and against a league 1 side. Very disappointing how far off we were.
