All that money still on the table, no chance.
He deserves sympathy in some respects after this.
See one that Fulham couldn't score from, much easier than the one Semenyo buried today
And then this
We have already conceded at least a dozen goals from these shots at this point, and have allowed many times more attempts like the ones above.
They always follow the same pattern: Instead of rushing at the opponent to narrow his shooting angle, players try to make themselves bigger by stretching their bodies while staying glued to their original position. They didn't even do that today.
And then there's this, albeit from a few years back. Is this an ongoing issue with his teams or what?
- Passing sequences were much better than usual, although we still weren't immune to going long needlessly at times. The balance between utilizing the centre versus the wide areas in the buildup was also better I feel.
- The first two goals are caused by easily addressable stuff, not the result of some chronic issues that've been going on for months.
- He actually went for it after 2-2; and the team created enough to get all 3 points to "jump" to 10th and stay only 3 points behind 5th. Although I'm against this X points behind Yth place argument as a matter of principle, a lot of people don't have the same objection. And this thread would've been filled with posts spreading positivity along those lines had one of those chances led to a 3rd goal for us

You mean all three.
No I'm more concerned with the shitshow on and off the pitch, the shit show I spend thousands a year to watch and travel 4 hours there and another 4 back for every other weekend. So if you're going to insinuate I'm a gooner because I think the shit show is more important than a paper cup you can indeed fuck off
All the things wrong at the club, all the things he deserves valid criticism for, all the dickhead players failing again, someone probably handing him a cup is pretty fucking low down on the list of things to be bothered about. I doubt he picked it from a selection.
They had 20 cups, one for each team, all lined up and told him to choose his favorite club. He chose the Woolwich cup. And he wasn’t even thirsty.
You nailed it, detective.
Ange was the same. In fact all managers are like that in defeat.
It's Frank's first cup with this team . Ange only managed it in his second season...

"first half was a fine half, we started well and went 1-0 up, conceded two goals from second-phase set pieces where we need to do better."
How the fuck is that "fine"??????

Where he doesn't deserve sympathy is the 3rd goal. It is back after a brief hiatus; not that teams like Sunderland who didn't score from outside the box weren't getting those target practice shots. See below

There were aspects today that were better, in small doses
But "better" is still far from "good"
It’s not itk it’s made up bollocks by a bloke on twitter
Wouldn't surprise me if thats the truth!
That's what ITK is!
Half these wannabe internet footy journo's come across like they couldn't even bag a GCSE in English.
Stop being a twat!
