Has the keeper officially signed yet? It's taken years for us to get a striker, in this country, on loan... Arsenal managed to get someone over from Germany and arrange a threeway with Dortmund and Chelsea, and we haven't even managed Slimani yet... Hilarious!
Burnley, Swansea, Brighton. 6 points ****ing up the swanny because of the managers **** tactics and bad selections. No doubt he can organise them well. Our GD is admirable given how poor the squad is. But the rest? **** me.
Mate, Arsenal do this weird thing where they employ professional people to do what's called football administration. We've got Penfold.
And honestly any ****er who says calm down.... YOUR DELUDED. We are one defeat from 2nd bottom and we have Palace away....... lose. Manu home.... lose and Bournemouth away.... LOSE! We are going down and i honestly think its hilarious as Charnley and Ashley deserve the **** storm that iss coming to the ****ing arsehole's. Ashley is going to lose over 100 million - ****ER! And Charnley is going to lose his job because of losing Ashley 100 million!
It's simply astonishing that Joselu has made a career out of football. How ****ing pathetic were we after going behind. Couldn't complete a 10 yard pass. Why are we so brittle mentally?
I don't care how **** people think he is, I'd prefer to see Mitro up front playing with passion than Joselu playing. Even if he got sent off and we played with 10 men, would we be any worse off?
Jonjo, remember your inspiring post of a couple of days ago - about getting behind manager and players from now until the end of the season, cheering them on through thick and thin, through crappy miscontrols and passes straight out of play. Take deep breaths and all that...
If Mitrovic does return, and Joselu still gets picked, I'm just not watching it. I don't rate Mitro, but he's a footballer. Joselu is our version of Ali Dia.
Now, hey - I said DURING the match! To be fair the crowd tried but when you see Joselu essentially cost us the game....well, it's hard to stay motivated.
Don't blame Rafa chaps. We have one of the three worst squads in this league, comfortably, so what he has achieved is what I would expect. The two others who will join us are Brighton and Huddersfield.
Again, remember that ONE match where he played an attacking foursome of Perez up front, with Murphy, Atsu and Ritchie behind and we looked really good? So why oh ****ing why is he picking Joselu? Perez, Murphy, Atsu (10) and Kenedy would have put the fear of God into Burnley. And Joselu wouldn't have been on the pitch to **** up.
There are managers how can manage egos with millions to spend. Pep, Jose, Wenger, Potty, Klopp There are managers who can get the best out of dross..... 100% Dyche, Allerdyce, Moyes There are managers who can smooth talk....... Pardew Then there are managers who are in the wrong place at the wrong time........ Rafa Rafa is a big manager who is used to spending millions on big egos.... He is not used to managing dross to maximize their potential to grind out results. Shouting at them, motivating them etc. He rotates the players like we are a champions league team. He has is favorites and wont deviate from a flawed tactical plan. We could have got more points out of this shower of **** if we had a manager who could actually manage the players. Not demote them, not use them, change them, drop them etc...... Rafa is as much to blame for this **** as Ashley. He has spunked over 100m on ****. Its on his watch. There is no denying that he has bought the players and most of them are ****!
I’m close to being done with Rafa like. Burnley were 1-0 down and they took a midfielder off and put a striker on and took us on....and guess what, it ****ing worked! It’s called tactics. Joselu and Gayle need ****ing rinsing and shipping out along with a few others cos they are robbing us all blind! 2 points massively dropped tonight all cos of rafas blatant man love for Joselu, the useless ****ing piece of ****! I’m sure some people were laughing at stoke fans goading us when we bought him. I bet they are literally wetting themselves now.
Dont blame Rafa... Are you serious.... When will you all take those rose tinted glasses off for him.... His match day decisions are mind boggling. His ability to demote Mitro and even Colback and play others instead is mind blowing. Rafa is a joke right now!
GD Is usually a massive indicator. West Brom, Swansea, Hudds, Stoke are all pretty useless. Southampton have had a worse Jan window than us, getting in a Monaco reserve for £19m (Riviere, anyone?!). I literally think our season hinges on Slimani. Everyone else can do a passable job. We create quite a bit. Kenedy will get better, as will Murph.
