He might lose his syrup that way
Everything many have said about has come to roast here. No subs, playing shite like davies and royal and persevering with son for so many games. Tactics as always seem to be to play slow although we were forced a little bit to attack. In the end they had more of the ball. All on conte who has just got out smarter by a 37 yr old coach whose team played 3 days ago. He introduced fresh legs when needed . Surely skipp Biss spence Doh or even Gil could have offered more. Although we have been wining games this season like we did under Nuno originally the results could easily swing the other way.If Conte starts throwing his toys out the pram in the post match then I’m not hearing it. Team selection wrong today.
Well, the only good thing about tonight is that surely now Royal will be dropped.
We've been playing like a 7th place team in the English league. Somehow we're 3rd.We just lost to a team 7th in the Portugal league. Let that sink in
Just angry. Probably regret the statement in 30 mins
Hojbjerg (2 goals this season) and Bentancur are more than capable, it's the tactics. This whole system relies on the WBs being excellent, when 1 or both are shit and you lose the midfield with only 2 in there, nothing works.I hope this is a wake up call to Conte. This type of football is shit. He asked to be backed in the transfer window and on the whole he was. What's the point of signing all those players and then never play most of them.
Spence would be so much better than that fucking accident waiting to happen Emerson Royal. We can all see how shit he is, why can't Conte?
Why is he playing 2 negative and average midfielders, when there's Bissouma. One of the best midfielders in the league recently?
Just a couple of questions that need answering.
The were there for the taking until 10 minutes to play. We bottled itFirst half I thought Sporting were there for the taking.
But with two in midfield, if Bentancur has a bad day (like today) we can't rely on someone with such limited ambition as Hojbjerg (who was poor as well) to pull us through
Top it off with Emerson pretending to be a WB and a non-existent front 3, what did we expect?
They are better than this if they play to effort. That’s my opinion.No no no!
This is contes fault!!
RWB who cannot play over the halfway line.
Picking a striker on a stinking run of form.
Playing two in midfield who have been outgunned in virtually every game.
Late changes.
Not enough change.
This is on him. He has no right to bollock them.
Kulusevski the answer? Thats like replacing casper the friendly ghost with the ghost of Christmas past.
WE NEED PACE. We need a direct player that bombs forward. We need creativity in midfield. Sick of us being a tall rugby team. Its fucking boring.
Would have been a bloodbath
Totally agree. If the players played like they should we're comfortable.Open up teams or not, 10 yard passes are surely necessary to not break up our own attack.
We fail to do the simple things to win games which is the most frustrating thing out of it all.
