Eriksen was a disgrace for us for the last 2 years at least and you know it. I’m not defending Sissoko tonight because he was awful but your blind hatred for him affects how you see games and it always will

We need to throw the 4231 in the trash, that was a formation suited to Dembele. We don’t have high quality midfielders any more so we need numbers in there, Mou needs to move to his old school 433.
Sissoko has to be taken out now, I get that he’s our best athlete but he’s too limited a player to really help the team as a starter. Use him an an attacking substitute against tired legs, not our midfield lynchpin.
I don’t know why Winks has fallen out of the XI because he was playing well for Mou, but he needs to come back. He is not afraid to play and he gets stuck in.

Your football blindness effects the way see games and it always will.
Sorry mate I forgot you were ‘technically better than Sissoko’ when you were younger. You’re an absolute deluded clown
Skipp would be my choice to play at CDM the rest of the season, but Winks surely would be better than Sissoko in a 4-3-3 too. Sissoko for me can be a squad CM and defensive RW against top-tier opposition. Him and Aurier together are just a total mess defensively.
What do you mean, when I was younger?
You said those exact words in a different thread, I can find it if you want
anyone can trawl through opta picking out random stats that back up their theories, you’re a laughing stock on here pal
Skipp is very good at moving the ball and taking it off the defenders. I'd like to see Skipp alongside a real hard bastard (Barrios) in front of our defence either in a 4-2-3-1 formation or a 4-2-1-2-1 formation
West Ham and ManU last week?
Sissoko is a very good athlete but as a footballer he is shocking.
He has no idea what to do with the ball at his feet and will not create anything for the team.
He gives his all in every game but he is woefull
At least he provided a lovely "Ye Fucking whit???" moment tonight when he ignored a simple 10 yard pass to Sanchez and instead blootered the ball 50 yards backwards to give away a corner.
Is he ACTUALLY a DM though?
....I sense, in terms of forum pressure, it's more a case that peeps just think he's worth a punt there because they don't like the alternatives.
Yes
Yes, as in he used to play as a bonafide DM in the youth or you personally just asses him to be one?
He used to play DM for the youth and he plays there for England youth. He's mostly played there for us when he's started too.
No one knows when you’re joking or not because your posts are pure fantasy. Some of the worst most conceited nonsense I’ve ever heard
I'm not really sure what to write about that one.
I am usually not super into saying officiating decided a match but what else can you say about this match? Goal taken away, red (2nd yellow) not given? Those two obvious decisions happen and it's a completely different match. There were countless others throughout the match but those are the two big/obvious ones.
The attitude/desire in the 2nd half was honestly disgraceful at times. You can say that about the team in general after the disallowed goal I suppose.
We need to move beyond the huff and puff players who offer little beyond that. Sissoko and Lamela being the two best examples. Sissoko in particular was horrible today.
You gotta feel for Kane. No service, was clinical when the ball did come to him (even if many of his valid goals were disallowed).
