    Don’t agree with a net spend zero. Simply replaced what left that’s all. Squad need strengthening not remaining the same. Blame for that’s not on the manager

    Yep, would have Pontus in ahead of any of our CBs

    We played better than the scoreline suggests.

    As long as we play like that every week we will be fine. Not every team we play will score from every chance they get.

    We do need to get Llorente out of the team.

    Pontus is exactly the type of centre back we need.

    Half on here think Phillips is overrated and ****, half think James was a waste of money.

    You think I have an Anti Marsch agenda, I do I think he’s ****, I’m not denying it, I’ve already said I have a clouded opinion

    I think you have an Anti Radz agenda, I’m not happy he didn’t spend £30m of his own money on a striker but at least he didn’t do a Bates, at least he gave Marsch the money back to reinvest.

    In the end, on serious reflection, we gave Bielsa far too much freedom in the transfer market when we have a DOF

    We’ve repeated that mistake this season with Marsch. His excuse last season was the players have bad habits, they’re not used to his methods.

    We sign his players and when you consider the injury list now compared to last season then nothing has really improved

    Like you with jess I’ve never tried to mislead anyone with my feelings on Radz. Is what it is and people can take it or leave it. I won’t bother repeating it at this moment. Maybe in ten minutes or so

    So you can put the blame on JM, he continues to pick and doesn’t sub him.

    I think he's been stuck with Llorente because of Coopers and Aylings injuries. He can't use Struijk because we have no left back.

    If he picks Llorente next game then yeah, Marsch will take more responsibility.

    Cooper was on the bench and he said it was close whether he would start or not.

    If he'd started Cooper and he broke down then Marsch would have 'rushed him back too soon".

    Cooper will play when the physio staff say he is comfortable playing a full 90.

    The refs aren't to blame every week but there have been some shocking refs at our games. VAR is killing football Imo. I'm pissed off with the result, but I'm getting more and more pissed off with football in general. It's becoming sterile.

    No but I ain't making out that Brentford are **** I was simply stating that they thrashed the scum as well who are now over us in the league after a short while ago being bottom.....so I don't see your point of it being an embarrassing defeat by a "lesser" team, we ain't the super Leeds of old by a long chalk so take it on the chin my old son, have a pleasant evening

    The ref and VAR rendered me speechless today.

    They got everything. We got nothing. Not just the major things either.
