    Jesus Pete you really are reaching new levels of stupidity now. Silva inherited a complete shit show, we had a mish mash of a squad full of unwanted players due to having a revolving door policy to managers. He had to pick the players back up and instil  confidence and belief back in them and get them playing actual football again after lard arses brand of anti-football last season. He had to make massive changes not just to the playing staff but the entire philosophy of the club. Changes on that scale do not reap rewards overnight and so if you believed this was going to be anything other than a season of transition you need to give your head a wobble 
    It took Klippety and Pochetino three seasons to turn their clubs around and they both had considerably better starting points 
    You keep banging on about how he has signed 5 first team players so why not judge him on his signings? All of them, with the possible exception of Mina who the jury is still out on have,  been unequivocal successes. Surely that’s a massive positive given some of the shite we have signed since we came into money?
    We have just kept 7 clean sheets in the last 9 games, including a run of 4 games against the Sky 6 where we won 3 and drew one and collectively they mustered a grand total of 11 shots and no goals. Surely even you can see that as a massive, massive improvement ?

    And there’s your arguement you bellend. Arsenal made one change Tottenham none we made five first team changes. Your argument again is that uniteds signings flopped but ours didn’t? So  that means silva did well in the transfer market? No wait that would be brands? Your an absolute sausage.

    Speak for yourself (repeating myself again) I want Liverpool to win their last two, as long as City do too because it'd then be us who took the title from them. They came to Goodison with their fate in their own hands and when they left it was in City's. I wouldn't moan if they screwed up again (unlikely) but if it plays out as seems likely I'll be very happy.

    I find it very hard to take you seriously as a supposed fan of this club when you cannot find it in you to give any credit you OUR manager and OUR players for a run that included drawing with the best Liverpool side in 30 years and beating Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd at home.

    44 forward passes is a decent effort from someone who can't make a forward pass though eh? Sure he only made one every two minutes but he'll get there in time.

    I'm not a huge fan of Alladyce but he'd have sorted out the main issues we continue to have and set the foundations for a better manager. We've brought Silva in who has a much better side than the one Alladyce inherited yet Silva hasn't closed the gap on the top 6.

    Unlocking tight defences is clearly a problem for us, but we've shown (the team and manager) that we're capable of solving problems when they arise.
    We struggled to defend set-pieces and that looks to be sorted. We struggled keeping clean sheets and now we're keeping them more often than not. We struggled with our tempo and pressing at times this season, and both look massively improved. We've struggled putting 90 minute performances together but that has been put to bed recently. We've struggled getting results against the big 6 for god knows how long but we've shown that we're capable of going toe to toe with them and beat them.
    It's a lot harder to solve this problem at this time but I have confidence that we'll do all we can to solve it over the summer.

    I think you’ll see that we carved them up until the final third. Coleman had so many chances to get a good ball in ( granted he got that one to Cenk and was saved well ) but generally put in a nothing ball. DCL was off, which is unfortunate for him but that happens. 
    For me another game where we looked defensively strong and competent, never under threat. I can see the foundations Silva is laying and I’m getting back to believing we could be 2/3 players away from being a seriously good team. So yes, I am happy with what’s getting served up because I can see the potential in what we are doing and where we are going.

    Frustrating performance today , unless you’re in the anti Europe brigade , but I thought Silva got it right again 
    Good dominant performance right up until we got into the final third, get a good striker in and all boded well for next season
