Such a riveting game ....I have been forced to make my own entertainment please log in to view this image
Is this sods law? Or just ironic? Lost 7 in the league, drawn 1, so Benitez bemoans our inability to draw and in a game where a draw doesn't really help.....
Yep. Should already be losing. I don't get how we're so awful, but we're SLOW. So very, very SLOW. It's such a deliberately pedestrian attempt every week at the moment, I don't really get it; is this what Rafa does?
I think he still hasn't got used to having relatively **** players at his disposal rather than what he is used to. Whatever he keeps trying it certainly hasn't been coming off recently.
Yeah, but when you're used to shopping at Waitrose and suddenly have to start shopping at Lidl, you're always going to take a while to realise how **** some of their own brand stuff really is!!
Oh well, silver linings and all that - hopefully there will be a cheap home game coming up next week!
Selz, Lazaar, Yedlin, Hanley, Ritchie, Hayden, Murphy in the line up today were bought by him. He knew what was happening in January when he bought Diame and loaned Atsu. Very poor YET AGAIN. The thing for me is whilst promotion is looking likely (not guaranteed of course), is that relegation in a year looks kind of inevitable! We still have this ingrained lethargy about our play that just doesn't suit the Premier League. I'd understand if we were grinding out 0-0's with this negative play, but we concede more or less every time. In the PL we'll be getting quite regularly thumped.
He has a lot to answer for. That baldy bastard needs to learn to stop insulting people based on what they look like!
