said the son captaincy was a problem because he wont rotate him like he should. waste of a shirt in games like tonight when they just get numbers behind the ball. ange ball sees the ball out wide around the edge of the 18 yard box and we got nothing in the box to make it count....
 
Getting found out at the top level. This isnt the J league. 1 point from 5 games with a Newcastle looking for revenge on sunday.

Dont think he lasts the season.
Oh fuck off. That's ridiculous.

Individual errors at both ends of the pitch have cost this team immensely. But we did go up first in each match.

The blame should fall on Levy for putting together such a thin squad with no real difference makers up front. Ange deserves a few windows at least.
 
Its high intensity football. If you are going to sprint at the start you need to make the lead count, because later in the game fatigue kicks in, loss of concentration and energy, because you have been burning energy at a higher rate than the opposition.
 
Never putting the ball in the box under the justification that we are "creating" play is never going to work.

Abusing inverted winger "modern football's" logic about keeping possession ..
Entrenching yourself under the spell that just because we have no proper forward we can fall asleep serenely because that makes us play entertaining football at least .....

Just give us more balls into the box, proper balls.
More proper crossing, and less "modern" inverted winger crap.
 
The depth simply isn't there. Blame the manager all you want but we came 8th last year and had a world class forward in Kane, we now have a good 11 but can't afford any players out the drop off is too big.

He deserves another two windows at the least.
 
List on injuries is horrendous missing our best CB imo, the 2 best mids at the club in Maddison and Bentancur and firepower upfront from injuries and lacking serious firepower upfront.

I believe in Ange but nothing will change until he's allowed to gut the squad top to bottom lots of dross that needs to leave simple as
 
1.75 either way isn’t amazing at home. People act like we’re wasting sitters all the time when we aren’t.

We started off on fire but have fallen off a cliff - injuries have obviously had a massive impact but he needs to keep us above water during that. These kind of games are just must wins.

All true but they aren’t must wins.

Still very early in the building phase. These are the moments not to panic and keep plugging away.
 
We are about 5 or 6 players away.

A press-breaking quality passer in midfield.
A proper #9
A proper dynamic winger who can score and go by players
A proper backup CB
A proper Maddison backup
