Oh it's one of 'those' bars. May explain why he's so blind...
Na I just think it's pretty poor that you're making this thread and leaving other fans to go along with your beliefs. If you're going to do one based on ratings, the bias should be kept at a minimum. Leaving people to vote on the shittest based on how you see it I don't really think it's on mate.
We're having a great season, against all odds and I personally think badmouthing the boys efforts doesn't donthe club any good. Just my opinion on the matter.
I won't be voting, I don't think it's on and it don't feel right as a supporter of the club. Just don't think it's on taking the piss out of them, its demeaning to the efforts of all involved & something I'd expect from someone who supports one of the other London clubs in our direction
Very bad day at the office, however you have to give Burnley credit, they defended with ten men but still managed to break away throughout the game. When we scored I expected Burnley to shut up shop they didn't they pushed for a winner ... looking at their 2019 results they are a club playing well.
That said we still should be winning these games, just not enough urgency and in hindsight Poch got that team all wrong. Foyth is no right back, and having Aurier as his cover was always a huge risk. Burnley exploited that weakness time after time. Sissoko with two players outside him (Foyth and Aurier) has nowhere to go, he just looked lost all game.
Hindsight is easy, but with Kane not having trained with the squad for six weeks why not stick with what has been working very well and ease Kane back in slowly. The complete change of formation just didn't work, we lost our urgency and several players just looked on a different planet Sissoko, Son, Winks were shadows compared to the last month.
Not surprised Poch was angry, he knew we played poorly, he knew that was any chance of the title gone, and deep down he probably knew that he fucked up ... it happens ... on we go to CL glory. The EPL title will have to wait until next season.

That sounds like the perfect boozer to me?
Ho hum.
Disappointing but it wouldn’t be spurs if the ride want bumpy.
Upwards & onwards to Wednesday. We seem to hit a groove when the games are coming thick and fast rather than the lads having too much time on their hands.
Just wish Poch had flattened that mincing bald cunt Dean

Aurier was a shit waiting to happen ., a Jack ass .
Central midfield weak unproductive
Little creativity as Eriksen, is a dude that couldn't open a bottle of maple syrup without breaking it today . Foryth a middleweight against Rocky Macciano.
Lights out dudes , only 5 hours a day .

Can’t believe we’r running a thread on who was the worst player, even the manager gets a vote...what makes this game so special to warrant such blame directed at any individual? It’s a fucking team game, like it or not the players on that list are part of our squad, it’s what we have, and people need to accept it, these are the same players that have us sitting 3rd in the league and 90mins from the CL quarter finals with a 3 goal lead in our favor, yet indirectly we are now being asked to vote for the person who has fucked up our season.....Woolwich fan TV wouldn’t have a look in.....COYS!!
Gimme Shelter .
It had to happen, we have been lucky recently , pulling it out of bag when we could have dropped points. Dortmund 2nd half has been our only outstanding performance for some time.
Lioris , 6
Rose , spirited but as usual final delivery in row z. 4
Toby , Jan , not at their best 5.
Foryth , at least a year away off becoming a regular. Lightweight constanly bullied , needs a stone of upper body strength .4
Aurier, my God what have we done to deserve him. 90% shit games , cant beat a man , plays balls back breaking any attacking impetus . KWP must start as he's our only half decent option. 2
Sissoko central midfield is very weak 4
Winks , sideways central . Tidy but uninspiring . A mistake to be taken off but Poch has so little to choose of quality in this position. 5
Eriksen , insipid 4.
Son , did absolutely nothing 3.
Kane , effort , very little to feed off but a good goal. 6
Poch out thought , tatically wrong, team selection not the best to compete with a heavyweight static Burnley , 3.

Lloris - 5 - had nothing to do except pick the ball out of the net twice
Aurier - 4 - typical daft performance
Alderweireld - 5 - neither good nor bad
Vertonghen - 4 - lost his man for the winning goal
Foyth - 4 - always trying to play but very raw still
Rose - 4 - one good throw in, not one decent cross
Winks - 6 - kept things moving, we couldn’t play football after he went off
Sissoko - 4 - limitations exposed when there is little space/high pressure
Eriksen - 3 - I don’t think he left the dressing room
Son - 5 - looked lively when he got on the ball, which wasn’t often
Kane - 6 - scored a goal and looked dangerous
Subs
Llorente - 3 - all he did was foul
Lamela - 4 - should have scored easy header at the end
Lucas - 5 - no time to have an impact
Aurier - 4 - typical daft performance

I think your being unfair to the dude BC.
His rating page offers another dimension compared to quick fire match thread . I don't bushwack if the sun shines.
Many dig it so lets us have the ride.
Grest respect main man.
What a lovely civil reply. Thank you. I was expecting some vitriol and abuse so I was pleasantly surprised.
I just think that
bus-conductor
threads need to be more subjective and analytical rather than aggressive and abusive. I guess we're all fans here and no one was happy with yesterday's performance...however, I would like his threads to be more balanced and remove the bias he clearly has against certain players...not sure how you can have a shittest man of the match poll for instance when there were what 14 players involved yesterday.Anyways, merci for the great reply.

FFFFFFFFFFF
Source please.....I just posted in the Eriksen thread with a link, showing that Kane and Son produce more.
50 passes a game, yet just 1.9 key passes per game....the vast majority simple lay offs in the middle of the pitch
You keep, trying to skew the stats in his favour. If you truly believed in his contribution, you wouldnt need to do that
In comparison, Sissoko (who you think is total shit and a pub footballer) makes 45 passes, and 0.9 are key.
So Eriksen stats hardly bathe him in glory.
Go to every one of these threads and you will notice a confirmation bias with the same players so strong with the author I don't even bother reading what has been posted, not even a word. It's well worth spending the 10-15mins to save you the time in the long run, much better reading the posts that follow and click the vote.
How come you never complain about it being a MOTM, singling out a best player, every other week?
Ignore
Guido 🇺🇦
, he just hates it because i don’t share his confirmation bias against Trippier.
