Yep it's bloody annoying and it's difficult to understand why we haven't switched to a combination of zonal and man marking like we used to do with Pontus.

Guess that was mainly pre Bielsa though.

All teams concede from corners just not the same bloody goal week after week.

Maguire was the worst though and we just stand looking.

I think we will also be relying on the others losing....not the best scenario is it? but we must start helping ourselves and tomorrow is at least a mustn't lose, I honestly think 10 points will be enough or am I being to optimistic

Who knows how many points will be required...I'd say 14 personally

Would take a point tomorrow though just to get the scoreboard moving again <ok>

I haven't been commenting much on here, I haven't even been reading it much, because it's depressing. It's depressing enough watching the team get humped without reading how **** you think most of the players and the manager are.
I've read comments challenging anyone who still supports Bielsa to comment. I do but I haven't because I know what you're going to say.
That being said, I think we're doomed. I don't think we have the personnel available to us to get us out of our spiral. The injuries throughout the season have crippled us but the biggest problem is that the teams we are playing are good enough to beat us.
What I mean is that other managers know how to beat us but it needs an immense effort and a lot of discipline.
Yesterday Liverpool set up to ruin us and had the quality players to punish us.
Allison played as a deep sweeper to nullify the pace of our wingers. The back 2 sat on the half way line then they pincered our defenders as they played it across the back and picked up every spare man. Usually it meant one of the defenders or Meslier played it to the wings where, if Harrison could control it, we got a break, if he didn't it went out or came straight back.
Liverpool never got out of 2nd gear doing it. Lesser teams will have to work much harder or take more of their chances.
We just don't have the players to do anything else.
I just hope that when we play the teams around us they can't do what the better teams can. I hope we get Cooper back to sort out the defence, Philips to give us the quality in Midfield and Bamford because he definitely gives us something different.

We're going to lose to Spurs because we've had two energy sapping games this week so the players will be fkd. I will avoid the match day thread.

So, yes I support Bielsa but no, I don't live in Disneyland.
It will be a crying fkn shame if the PL lose the most entertaining team in it.

I never wanted rid of Pontus but that was one thing he excelled at.

Good morning everyone.. Well it's a nice sunny morning and the wind has abated. Good day for a game of football. Not my favourite kick off time as usually all the fun is over when the others kick off. Not today though as we keep our eye on the other relegation candidates
I feel upbeat and confident about this game. The lads are surely up for it knowing points are needed.
