    They were the season before last. Maybe it’s the manager? Maybe the manager doesn’t coach the team to defend? Maybe that was why Dubgoalie made most saves. We should defend from the front and attack from the back.

    How very dare you! Blame a manager of the season contender? Disgraceful!

    Maybe it is the manager, but there comes a point where the players have to take ownership.
    Where are the leaders on the pitch, too much shrugging of the shoulders as if doesn't really matter.
    Blaming the manager is an easy get out for players these days, whether it's us or other clubs.

    I reckon he's 1 of those people that'll order a phal to impress his mates, and eats it while sweating like a pig pretending he's enjoying it

    So he's gone fishing, on the way back home, stopped off at Greggs to stuff his face, then moved onto the Indians to impress his mates whilst sweating like a pig.

    That sounds about right.

    I agree about the players but it’s the manager who picks which players play and what system they play.

    We saw last season where Stevie tried to play it his way and then had to change to Rafa’s system whilst blaming the players as being too drilled into playing Rafa’s way to be able to change to his system.

    The buck stops with the man at the top.

    Whilst we piss about with Holding and who knows else that we won't have heard of, Tottenham appear to be pulling off the deal of the window with Matt Doherty for £12m or so.
    There is good value out there without breaking the bank, if you look for it.
    Unfortunately there seems to be **** all in the account.

    If we brought them all in, I'd be ecstatic. Exactly what we'd need.
