There’s a video of Spence and van de Ven walking past Frank after the final whistle. Frank seems to say or gesture something to them and van de Ven seemingly ignores him and Spence seems to say something back in frustration. Not a good look, both players were extremely poor today too.
Well the weed is doing wonders and there ain’t many problems in the world a Kofta kebab on a Naan with fries, salad, chilli sauce and mint yoghurt can’t sort out tbh on a bit of a health awareness vibe so opted for water
So a major "stabbing incident" on a train near Huntingdon means everything cancelled at Kings X so had to hot foot it across to St Pancras and catch the milk train to Nottingham. Then just heard thatbthe buses are all up the creek so unable to retrieve car from where it's parked tonight. Hopefully get home before dawn but just caps the perfect day. It can only be better tomorrow....
Frank didn't look or sound impressed in his post match interviews. Simmons needs to be out of the starting line up and if on the bench should only be bought on with 10 -20 mins left if at all. He has no confidence in himself or his team mates. I think that Kuluchevski returning will massively help us going forward and the need for January signings who can immediately improve us has already been made on the pitch.
The sense of confusion on the pitch was rife throughout the team. Vicario made some saves that restricted the damage, but his distribution was awful. The lat few long hoofs in particular were just plain embarrassing. Porro couldn't hit a cross or corner to save his life. Danso and VDV looked completely out of sorts and the latter had the worst game I've ever seen from him. I'll give Palinha a pass on effort alone, but none of the MF company vered themselves in glory. Kudus was double marked, but even he was running out of ideas and had poor support. Simons was just appalling and enough has already been said about his abject contribution. Spence tried his best and with RKM was arguably the only two outfield players to get any credit whatsoever. The substitutions were all either too late, ineffective, or a combination of the two. Bergvall going off so early didn't help matters obviously, but I imagine a voice in his head tonight is saying 'thank **** I was not part of that!' You have to wonder what the **** was being said in the dressing room before and during that shambles.
...and we all thought Big Ange was bad! Bloody awful display in all fairness, tactically all over the place. The Utd game will be very interesting now. On a brighter note, the wife has come out to pick us from Nottingham station so looks like I might get to bed before midnight. Small victories and all that.
At this point Werner was a better player for us than Xavi has been, and thats a sad reflection of how poor Xavi has been
Kane's ridiculous numbers at Bayern should have told us all we needed to know about the widening gulf between the PL and Bundesliga. Just look at how Wirtz is struggling at Liverpool and he came with a far stronger reputation. The problem is Simons is yet another panic buy, a last gasp effort to cover two roles we'd failed to cover in the months beforehand. Stinks of a Levy signing and as I said at HT yesterday, I sincerely hope we now see an end to this obsession with spending £30-50m on completely irrelevant players. The squad is fully of them.
I hate this game over every other every season ,they just have the hex on us , the last time I enjoyed it was on my birthday when Dele scored a couple
