Something must have happened to the team when Poch started Kane prematurely in that Burnley gameIt isn't fatigue. So how the fuck after 4 league wins in a row, a great night against dortmund, do we produce two games like that?!
Nah fuck this shit I'm done with this.
Same shit every fucking year.
I don't think any of the full backs we have are good enough to actually start for us and it's a big problem. The rest of our starting eleven is just usually so good that it's skipped over.
Odd post.John Thomas...
Doesn't post for 10 days, turns up to gloat after the Burnley loss...
...Doesn't post for 3 days, turns up to gloat after the Chelsea loss...
Parasite.
Very true but you have to show some ambition like the Scousers did to try and compete to want to win...we start every season knowing out club does not really want to win as they don't act like any other club that tries to win...wd are being sold a load of bullshit by levy so he can make even more money from his stadium...good luck with that levyMost clubs don't "win something". Hardly any clubs win anything. It could well be City winning everything this year.
I don't think the nothing in the tank line can explain that to be honest, most of that Chelsea team played 120 minutes on Sunday and they were first to everything tonight.
Chelsea played Sunday for 120 mins. They were in disarray.
We just rolled over.
You just wonder about our players and to some extent Pochettino.
He fcuked up on Saturday with his team selection and tonight is a knock-on consequence.
United would not touch him with a barge pole and fcuk me and right now I am just disgusted.
Useless performance.
Pretty much all of this...There are no words......
What is it about this club that cannot reach out and grab opportunities when they're there for the taking...... We just can't do it.......
Chelsea in disarray before tonight and we pretty much gift them a 2 goal victory by mistakes and the fact that none of our players turned up....
I fear the worst for Saturday..... I'm going but it could be terrible.....
Poch is hamstrung by Levy. I don't think any manager could do much better with this squadWhat gets me most and a lot does, is that posters on here think bemoaning the impact of the loss on Saturday was OTT.
You could see the outcome today before it happened, even more so when Chelsea losr.
We are MENTALLY WEAK. Why aand where that stems from I don't know but if we fail to secure top 4 there will be a whole range of repercussions.
If Pocheetino stays,, and he won't be going to United, he needs to really take a proper look at what type of player he brings in.
We lack leadership on the pitch but we are in danger of looking like we lack leadership off it.
Pochettino needs to sort it and himself.
But I wish the sort of you would stop being so fucking ignorant/confident when it’s not needed.
That Trippier og was SO bad, I'd almost swear it was deliberate!
When has ANYONE ever scored an og like that against US...? I DREAM of such luck, let alone in a MASSIVE London Derby like that!
Well... Poch's pre-match 'team talk' did the trick... we're NOT good enough to win the league, and now we've just proved it beyond doubt to the world!
We need a winners mentality to course through our veins... unfortunately, we've embraced the 'Spursy' mentality instead.
That was extremely painful.
Worst part is that, regrettably, I reckon I'm done with this forum... for a while at least.
I've seen an influx of new posters, the most positive thing of which i can say is that I'm glad they are frothing their drivel on their keyboards rather than at the games, because they would turn the atmosphere toxic.
7 years I've been posting here for and in that time, give or take, this is overall the best team we've had. But currently this is the worst and most negative the forum has been.
There is no mutual love anymore just bile, egotism and relentless negativity.
RIP TFC
No, but you should be more reserved especially after the shit show we witnessed tonight.So I should just whinge and call all our players shit, instead?
I think we will beat Woolwich. They don't travel well, they have a poor defence and we are due some goals.
I'm not really interested to be honest, pretty much all of that is bollocks. Tell it to somebody else.Very true but you have to show some ambition like the Scousers did to try and compete to want to win...we start every season knowing out club does not really want to win as they don't act like any other club that tries to win...wd are being sold a load of bullshit by levy so he can make even more money from his stadium...good luck with that levy
