We are so crap at the back, it's going to be a massive job for any manager to sort out, doesn't look good at the minute...............
****ing hell what is Mawson doing there? Utter crap in defence and we are severely paying for having a combined total of £5m CBs on the pitch.
We are down, no doubt about it, and I hope our scumbag of a chairman is proud of his greed, the bastard that he is!.............
That's what happens when we sell Ash, buy Mawson and VDH and keep picking Taylor. For me, Dyer has been our best player this half - sums up the quality we have on the pitch.
Feel like we could have done with a 30+ yr old, bog-standard, experienced English centre back (basically an experienced Mawson)...I'm sure there are a few in the championship...bit late now though.
I'd rather tell Tate to lace his boots up than stick Fed on the pitch. But, you are correct, we need a couple of experienced old school British CBs. For me, we've always needed one of those since being in the PL. The u23s are winning all the time, I'd give one of the kids a go.
Looking very grim indeed, the Yanks will have to now seriously back their investment, otherwise they can kiss goodbye to the £100 Million they spent...
£100m? I thought it was £60-£70m they bought the club for? Ayew and Ash = £32m, Palo = £6m Sell Gylfi for £15m and that gives you £53m before selling a few others and running off with parachute payments etc. They can relegate us and still make a good £50-£100m profit before selling us. Bastards
We need pace up front. Take Ki off, put Gylfi in midfield, push Llorente into Gylfis role and put Borja up front and go 4-4-1-1.
Christ, every time someone runs at Taylor they either get their shot off or a cross gets put in. Stevie Wonder could get the ball past Taylor.
Mawson has been exposed badly in this game. Has no awareness of the players he's marking etc. Not his fault because he's not experienced/good enough for this level (not yet at least).
