It does look that way, but there's been much bigger escapes. A couple of wins and it'll look very different, but unless they get in some real quality this side won't win them. They've bought into this buying battlers crap.. I've been saying we need good players and we just do
Agreed. We just need a complete nee midfield. Shelvey as you and many others have pointed out is the main problem. In fact your also right if you take him out and Lascelles. And replace them both then I believe we may have enough to survive. Shelvey is a shockingly bad cm in the modern game. I can’t think of any other players like him in the top levels of world football. And Lascelles is the same. He’s just to slow. To poor and can’t read a game.
Almiron 86th minute sub They will and can't see them winning another game this season, doesn't matter who we play when you're the worst team in the league.
Surely our new owners see the likes of KDB and Van Dijk and then look at Shelvey and Lascelles and think what the actual ****ing ****??
They are all utter utter utter dogshit. I'd get rid of every ****ing one of them. Not one of them in that squad is irreplaceable. ......And yeah I do include sicknote in that.
Shelvey has never been good enough at any club because he can't do enough of the things that's required.. He can't do anything other than pass and even that ability is fading
Football has move on. He hasn’t. And that’s why he hides mate. You have to be mobile to play CM. He would have been fine in the 90’s.
Not so sure unless we recruit 11 players and I'm being serious, when was the last time a midfielder scored?
It says a lot about our midfield when we are all ****ing over Joelinton playing CM and he’s ACTUALLY our best player.
I feel like the fans at the stadium should chanting we need new ****ing midfielders, we need flair, creativity. I feel it’s the only way the manager etc might ****ing notice!
