I touched on this in the Poch thread. Not one person has said Sack Poch. Yet everyone is automatically attaching the "He wants Poch sacked" label onto those fans who are unhappy.

It's ironic, because it shows that the happy clappy group are actively thinking about Poch getting sacked without the pessimists even introducing the thought to them.

Like a child going to the Doctors who screams "I'm not getting an injection, I hate needles", when it's just for a general check up. They fear the worst, then blame it on others.

So when you say poch is to blame, poch has no plan b, he doesn't know about tactics, he don't do attacking football, poch doesn't care about cup games etc etc what does that acutally mean?

It means he needs a wake up call and needs to drastically change his tactics.

Sitting in here is like watching a king burn his empire yet his advisors are too scared to tell him in case they get beheaded, so they all smile and say what a good job he's doing. And anyone who dissents e.g. Sissoko gets exiled, probably won't be seen for months.

He needs to be told he's doing a bad job and his methods aren't working, not have 500 forum posters with their tongue up his arse.

Jammy bastards. We would've smashed them if our players were fully available. Moses doesn't put in the performance he did if Rose were playing.

Excellent performance by us in the 1st half, could've been 2 or 3 before Pedro's equaliser.

How exactly is he doing a bad job?

I will say that his subtitutions and formation changes lately havent been good but saying hes doing a bad job isnt fair.
 
I think Nelson Mandela was still banged up last time we won there, and they won 6 on the spin prior to this, hammering Utd 4-0 and Everton 5-0 along the way.....expectations got the better of you
Jimmy Savile was still a National Treasure last time we won there... and many on here weren't even shaving... THAT'S how long it's been!

Fucking sucks. fucking Chelsea have been the bain of our lives in recent years... and all with a backdrop of Anti-Semitic sing-songs and vile chants EVERY time we play them....
Nice... classy... it fill me with despair to see that Evil conquers good with such alarming regularity!

But hey.... that's our CUNTRY for you!

Disappointing result as always if we lose! Better than I expected feared a hammering so take something from that,again a narrow defeat players out plus some ,Dembele for one off the pace kept losing the ball,chavs are not a bad team we know that and we don't at the bridge! So we move on keep the faith and remember the bad days....AVB etc! Least players to come back and young ones come through so not all bad. But I would like the F.A Cup and the Europa league(if we are in it) taken seriously

I think the constant resting of key players has been awful.

I think the playing around with formations constantly has been awful.

I think picking a different back line and players has been awful.

I think his substitutions have been poor, Winks and Janssen were pointless subs.

I think his in-game management has largely consisted of him sitting on his bench looking upset, which isn't good enough.

I think his post and pre match interviews have been poor, passionless and not what fans want to hear. He's largely been content, despite such a drastic dip in form.

I think his prioritisation of games/leagues/cups is awful, highlighted by last year going out of the FA cup, Europa League and then losing many games in the League in a short period.

I think not giving GK more game time has been awful.

I think the complete departure from last years formation and tactics have been awful, even when players have been fit to play largely the same 11.

I think the lack of pressing has been awful. When we do press (City and today first half) we don't look too bad. Then for some reason we simply stop doing it and look average. For Pedros goal we simply switched off and no one closed him down. Same for Moses.

I think selling Chadli was beyond awful and I think the transfers have made us weaker, not stronger.

On top of that his training seems to be exhausting the players and causing them injuries. We had almost no injuries last year, now we have loads. This is either down to pure luck last year or over-working the players this year. This is further backed up by the fact so many key players seem to need constant resting, when they didn't last year.

We were a good team last year, not because we had good players, but because the tactics and team were more than the sum of their parts. This year we look like less than the parts themselves, never mind the sum.
