Btay Posted March 4, 2019 Report Share Posted March 4, 2019 Good test coming up here. 2 tricky away games and 2 tough home games. Confidence should be back after matching Liverpool. I really hope we turn a corner here and pick up a good tally of points from tricky games. plaidharper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 I am almost certain he will be gone this summer. 11th and we are below some tin pot clubs. If we do fire him I want mourinho or a Brands guy, no more moshiri bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plaidharper Posted March 11, 2019 Report Share Posted March 11, 2019 He lost me on that Newcastle game. Just numb. Not sure if sacking him would help. Just looking forward to the summer and what Brands can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makis Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 It was an open letter so probably they didn't. But it does not look like it was written tongue in cheek. It reads more like fuming from someone who thinks he knows football better than people who are actually paid to think about tactics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are a total disgrace, not only to your profession, not only to the human race, but to nature itself.

I considered, for a second, that I was perhaps being a little too harsh. But then I recalled that I have blindly given you all the benefit of the doubt for too long now. Yes, for too long you have failed to earn the air you’ve been breathing by offering any kind of tangible quality either as footballers or as people in general. As such, I feel it’s only fair that your supply runs out forthwith. I trust, at this precise moment in time, that Mr Fenty is in his office tapping away on the Easyjet web site booking you all one-way flights to Zurich, complete with an overnight stay with our cheese eating friends at Dignitas. Don’t bother packing your toothbrush – you won’t need it. In the event that our beloved chairman can’t afford the expense (understandable given that he’s soon going to have to assemble a new squad from scratch), then I am prepared to sell my family (including my unborn child) to a dubious consortium of Middle Eastern businessmen in order to pay for the flights. Christ, I’ll drive you there myself, one-by one, without sleep, if I have to. Failing that, understanding that most dubious Middle Eastern businessmen are tied-up purchasing Premier League football clubs, I ask you to please take matters into your hands. Use your imagination, guys – strangle yourselves or cover yourself in tinfoil and take a fork to a nearby plug socket, or something. Just put yourselves and us fans out of our collective misery. So, in summary, you pack of repugnant, sputum-filled, invertebrate b**tards; leave this club now and don’t you f**king dare look back. You’ve consistently demonstrated less passion and desire than can commonly be found within the contents of a sloth’s scrotum, so frankly you can just all f**k off – don’t pass go, don’t collect your wages, don’t ever come back to this town again.

Btay Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Deserves credit for today. Second half is how I envision he wants us playing. Challenge is for him to build the consistency and get us playing that style of football for 90 mins. Given there’s not a lot for us to play for bar pride whilst Chelsea are chasing champs league makes the result all the more impressive.

Care to expand as I can't see what the manager done to change the game. How I saw it was Gomes went on a romp up field, we won a couple of corners, scored, and then Chelsea imploded much like we did at Newcastle last week. Imo we won thanks to Sarri being out of favour and him panicking taking off Barkley and Higuain. Without that moment from Gomes I fear that could've been another performance on par with Spurs (worst home game I can think of, although I did miss Leicester this new years).

Without that moment from Gomes I fear that could've been another performance on par with Spurs (worst home game I can think of, although I did miss Leicester this new years). You’ve actually showed what the manager did to change things. He’s obviously told them they need to be doing things like that run forward from Gomes. In the first half that sort of thing was non-existent and we were slow on the ball, with very little pressing from our players. But it was evident straight from the kick off for the second half that it would be a different story because we pressed from the first moment, and it completely threw them. We scored 4 minutes into the second half and all of those 4 minutes led to that goal, not just a run from Gomes We won because we gave our heads a collective wobble and played like a team that’s together and fighting for each other. I don’t think Chelsea imploded at all; we just didn’t give them a chance to breathe.

Bailey Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 I think today just showed the issues we have with this group of players in that they only decide to turn up when someone gives them a bollocking. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Credit where it's due.... silva showed fight and the players showed a response for him.... he can take the slating for Newcastle along with pickford.... but the two of them can take a lot of credit for yesterday.

Palfy Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 It was definitely a game of contrasting halves, if a the 2nd half was the result of him firing some fucks into them then it's long overdue, he needs to be hard and forceful more often and hopefully they will learn the message and it will become second nature to them. I was discussing this in the Mina thread that we were weak as a team due to weak management it would seem Silva grew some Sunday and they reacted in a positive way and showed the fight he had in the dressing room on the pitch.

sydneyneil Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Without the collapse at Newcastle, lets not go into the reasons again, we would have been in a good place right now with 3 wins out of 4 and a draw against Liverpool. If we can beat West Ham though, things will be looking up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barryj Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 I don’t want this to be a Liverpool Everton rant but Klopp got fined only £8k for running to the centre circle to celebrate a goal mid game? In my opinion that’s worse. Or is my view skewed as running that far on the pitch is rare. Marco was wrong but his point was correct and moaning about officials is common place.
