Definitely. Ultimately these are still young men who need guidance and motivation, despite their salaries.

Haha its amazing isn't it although it is the Mail so usual caveats of it possibly being made up cobblers.
I think those that get selected regularly believe. What they believe in is the bit that is questionable.
Even against Utd I thought we looked extremely vulnerable, we hadn't laid a glove on them until moments before we scored and they went down to 10 men. Against Southampton, I thought we were shit, especially the first half.
I found Lloris's interview incredibly revealing but ultimately it speaks to a fractured side, fractures completely manufactured by the manager.
There is always discontentment from players who don't get played, this also must not be confused with throwing hissy fits after getting subbed off etc. Roben used to lose his shit whenever he got hooked (this is a good sign IMO) and players like Rose in the past speaking out of turn can be found frequently in teams.
But the bigger the number of resentment, the bigger the problem and speaks solely to the lack of managerial leadership. The inability to get most of the players onside and follow the plan.
So going by Lloris's interview there are 11 players that believe in the manager (or have allowed to believe in him/open to him and follow what he asks), the issue perhaps that anyone not in this 11 which means +14 players isn't onboard! This is really poor management for this to happen and it's not for the 3rd time in his career too.

Hopefully we'll take your manager and a couple of your players.
Definitely not the kind of similarity I'm looking for
The only hope left is that with the absence of any midweek games, we have whole weeks now to prep for the remaining 10 league games.
Every fan joins at some point. It’s irrelevant. I had my reasons for joining at the time I did. Move on.
So your saying we can be even more shit and more defensive
The way levy is treating carabao final like it’s the champions league final is honestly embarrassing. So small time
Not better than a school caretaker at this point, also he can lock up after the game

They probably have 30 million reasons they could give
Or we can see whether Ropey league games are an excuse or not
I'll be honest, I find all these nameless peices very speculative. They're probably already written waiting for the right time to post them.
I'll guide Winks, Davies, Dier, Dohery, Sissoko, Lamela and 2 or 3 more.
To other clubs.
