Fair play mate , you bloody deserve itWelp my flight’s just taking off back to Dublin. At least I have tomorrow off
Welp my flight’s just taking off back to Dublin. At least I have tomorrow off
I’m not knee jerking and we were lucky to get away with 2-0!!
I sometimes wonder if people like you actually watch the game
They were by far the better side and also went to Frankfurt and won 3-0 so why are they “that good”???
Sounds pretty good to me and like I said we’ll be lucky to scrape 2nd unless Conte learns some hard lessons quickly
You see Goat? Nobody is always right, not even Conte. Everybody could see Son dropping another stinker from a mile away...I see the moaning Minnie who think they know better than Conte are out in force!
Pipe down![]()
He's nowhere near as good as Aurier offensively. Aurier could finish.
Lucky to lose 2 nil?
We were watching different games in that case.
We were not brilliant by any stretch but strictly on the game, we had control even if they were at times more incisive.
I am no rose-tinted fan but definitely disagree with you in respect of this match.
Aww man. Safe journey homeWelp my flight’s just taking off back to Dublin. At least I have tomorrow off
The only explanation is Levy is a psychopath and deliberately excludes buying a major piece to the team dynamics when we're just on the cusp of reaching another level as a club.
You’ve summed it up perfectly. Sleep well and safe journey home.You'll have to pardon me for not reading through this thread, but after only an hour's kip since yesterday morning, I've just got enough energy to post this.
The game was not very good. Hugo made two excellent saves. Can't understand why Antonio doesn't make better use of the bench when things aren't going well and we've got a game on Saturday. We were settling for a draw and it blew up in our faces.
Only highlights were meeting deadleyledley and his friend and Mr & Mrs 1chriswaddle , there's some lovely people on this forum, thanks to them that this trip wasn't a total disaster. Also saw Sandro on the way in, managed to get a picture with him.
I've just devoured a HUGE bag of crisps to the point I'm feeling a bit sick and now going to get some shut-eye. Hope I wake up before I need to check out.
I'd like to think that it'll look better in the morning.......but doubt it!
I’m not Conte out but I have been saying all season his lack of subs is frustrating and will cost us. Today it did. No excuse not to use Spence or Sess or Bissouma when it was 0-0.All over reacting cunts are getting blocked. Some of you are absolute man childs. So go on…life losers likeGazzapen , keep crawling out of the gooner woodwork so I can identify and block your whiny asses.
Anyone suddenly Conte out can get in the sea and stay there.
Bassouma? Conté?I agree. But I don't think Conté has faith in what he has. He is known to be stubborn. I think he is showing Levy who really should be in charge. He is showing Levy, 'They won't play if I don't believe they good enough'.
I understand some believe Conté received what he wanted this window, I don't think so. He had 3 DM in PEH, Skipp and Bentancur, why Bassouma? I don't believe any Manager would like to have no AM in his whole team. We don't have one player other than Perisic that can deliver a decent cross. We still don't have a backup striker. We still using Davies and Dier in the Backline. Much as I applaud their passion and work ethic, most of our players would not make it into any of the other top six team. We just don't have the quality needed. Only one man is to blame for that.
Watching us play has been ultimately the same for 80% of our games:Well , to say I was disappointed with that is a bit of an under statement . Why do we play at a pedestrian rate? We look like we are just going through the motions at times . It makes it so much harder to then step it up .It must be time to give some squad players game time as we desperately need a spark .
I have faith that Conte will get it right but it is a bit of an ordeal to watch us at the moment . Felt a bit sorry for the faithfuls that travelled out there to witness that .
Let’s put fucking Leicester to the sword on Saturday . COYS
Jesus christ dude. We've lost 1 and drawn 2 since April.Watching us play has been ultimately the same for 80% of our games:
Tedious
Boring
Predictable
Frustrating
How on gods green earth do these players and Conte not quickly recognise the faults in the teams style of play and lacklustre performances, adapt tactically and sort out the basics, being lack of intensity, lack of fluid attacking passing sequences, giving players with the ball multiple options, and finally the hunger to fucking kill off the opponent ASAP.
