We will lose the next two comfortably and win our last two which will get us 5th but I honestly think the Liverpool and City games are going to worse than the last two in terms of score lines. The Woolwich and Chelsea games hurt more because of who it is but I’m dreading going on Sunday and I’m not in anyway am I going to the City game. The city game is the biggest Lose Lose game in our history 🤣🤣🤣

It's Burnley after Liverpool
 
I think it's safe to say that Ange still hasn't quite found his worst starting 11 yet, but you can't say he isn't trying to work it out, can you?

Well at least we’ll have some rest bite because they are utterly hopeless. Even we will take the lead in that match and not concede from a set piece.

Rest bite?

I'm not that confident but hopefully we'll grind out a 2-1 against Burnley, they'll be all but down by our match... They're a team that tends to try and attack which suits us.

Their season has unravelled and they are playing almost as badly as us, so maybe we can get something.



You could have Kane, Mbappe and Vinicius up front, if your midfield doesn't progress the ball properly they will still do fuck all. What happened to this:

That's literally the same players, unfortunately their balls have now shrivelled up. That pass from Sarr (under pressure) that opens up the play simply doesn't get played anymore. We have gone back to playing wimp-ball.

That tells me it’s players rather than the manager. They don’t have the mentality to play it when the shit hits the fan and that’s why so many need replaced. It can’t always be going perfectly. Your big players step up when it’s not going great but we obviously don’t have enough of those types.

It's both, we have soft players but great managers can toughen players up. Why can players like Maddison and Bissouma not play with the same intensity as before? How come these exact same players could play with courage when down to 9 men against Chelsea in November but now they looked scared to pass the ball forward?

Yes there's a different type of pressure at the business end of the season but playing the way we did with 9 men was basically suicide and yet we nearly beat them doing it! The boys showed they had balls. Where did they go?

Ange doesn't know either, says the players are lacking belief and conviction, the mindset to play the football he wants.

I think some of the players have given up...hopefully just for the season, and some just arent good enough to play that kinda football
