Wouldn't be surprised if we lost this 7 nil

They are in shit form and need a response. We are in shit form and never give one.

Honestly though and this is a piece of advice I'm going to share. Forget about the game ruining your bank holiday. Go and do something else instead. It isn't fair they keep doing it to us.

I hope most of you did this. I’m pissed off but probably not as much as you all who sat through another shit show.
 
How much is Udogie in the window I wonder?

Why didn’t we play with intensity when Richarlison started against Chelsea? :sonhmm:
4-0 down it’s easy to run around although he did do ok abd scored a good goal. Think at that stage dippers had made changes, may be eased off a bit sgd we had fresh legs as well. Hard to gauge if it was a proper effort or just something due to circumstances if the game at that point. If it’s the corner then yes why didn’t we start like that? However rich was shite v chavs. Yet still he prbly should start remaining games of the season to see what his real level is.
 
They played it wide and found their man every time because our fullbacks were tucked way too far inside.

We played it wide and were snuffed out every time because their fullbacks actually marked our wingers.
This! It’s stupid playing this inverted FBs expecting them to be midfielders or inside forwards. Wtf just not play proper players in that role. Play 3 at the back and let everyone bomb forward even that would be better than what we have now. No way a whole bunch of new players coming in next season, players leaving are we going to get an Ange 2nd season miracle! Who does it work any if you have a bunch of new players coming in? Will then to bed into the system. Will it then be the following season we see the much vaunted title charge. The guy is delusional!
 
Sure, we've been fucked by refs on more than one occasion this season...and we were never gonna get anything at Anfield, especially after the game at ours.

But we didn't lose because of them today...we lost cause we were shite. Same can be said about the vast majority - if not all - of our defeats this year.

Just my opinion.
No spot on! The refs didn’t make kulu turn inside at every attack of BJ fail to beat TTA. Royal to play like a not so royal, could go on ….
 
Skipp was far superior to Royal.

Kulu was shit. Pape was shit. Benta was shit.
Midfield next game should be biss MADDs and gio. I’d like Ange to do something diff . If we play with only the forward wide players and FBs inverted then screw the FBs.
Play something like this:
Drag cuti vdv
Biss
Gio madds
Porro royal son an other ( not kulu or bj) may be a youth player with some trickery
So a revolutionary formation of 3 3 4. At least we would 3 solid cbs.
 
Problem is now that teams sit off us we cant break them down. Liverpool pressed us we couldnt play out. Fucked both ways. Richie comes on we still flute around at the back with the ball
Dippers were not sitting back for most of the game. They were on top of us all over us like a rash and we could do anything to stop them or actually get out through them. I said this in another post even though we struggle v low blocks and are quick to counter we are actually worse when teams come at us as our players are lazy. How comes when we had the ball in their half we could nothing yet when they were in our half they could spray the ball around and find players in space. This has been going on for ages. Out of possesion we are not very well organised at all.
 
Yes Conté had his say but he only had his say right at the end of his stint. He got shipped off and "The New Rebuild bought over Fans once again.

I don't think Ange is out if his depth. I believe he is out of his depth if he doesn't get what he needs. That will show. Levy cannot hide. It is great that Levy cannot blame "Anti-Football" (what was used against Jose and Conté) again. He cannot put forward the "Spurs DNA" argument. And he cannot put forward the "No Money" card (We are the richest club in London).

Ange has perfectly cornered Levy. I Love it:ange-lol:
No Ange still needs to organise his team better regardless of players. I’m not sure what diff “his” players would make to our defence and set pieces.
 
After Thursday’s bizarre choice of Kulusevski in midfield and 2 subs that managed to weaken 4 positions, today saw more inept selections.

Son’s been absolutely atrocious for months as a CF. Johnson is incredibly limited, but if he has any use it’s down the right. Richarlison is a blunt weapon, but at least the ball can occasionally stick and he can be a nuisance.

I also don’t understand why try Kulusevski (v Chelsea) Bentancur and Sarr as 8’s and not Lo Celso, who is an 8, and is more creative.

These forwards are so bad that even when Liverpool downed tools and said help yourself to the buffet, they still spent most of the time tripping over themselves.
Shocking tbh
 
I honestly don’t think Levy is going to spend 70m on a winger that it would take to get Nico or Eze.
Eze or olise but no chance. You’d have to say palace forward line is miles better than ours. Their manager is doing well again plenty of good managers (slot) we could have gone for last year but we went with Ange. Not his fault so I guess the board now have to stick with him.
