I`m not actually Anti-Sherwood. But I am Anti-Levy for basically writing off our season before half way by appointing him. I honestly believe the supporters, especially those who go week in week out, deserved better.

Those stats are meaningless, especially since his actual displaced passes were the most important ones like where he destroyed a few counters or failed to find Ade/Soldado in the final third when they were open. He's more concerned with not making mistakes than doing something particularly outstanding. You can add all the numbers you can find - but I know what a I saw today - and no stat can change that.Well he created two chances second only to Adebayor and Eriksen. He has more attempted forward passes (36) than square and backward passes combined (33). He completed 58 passes which is 15 more than Walker who had the second most.
He had the highest pass completion on the team at 84% tied with Paulinho who attempted 22 less passes. He also led the team in accurate long balls with 4. Furthermore, he had 4 interceptions and won 2/3 aerial duels and was 2/2 on clearances.
So basically your eyes are crocked mate.
Any news on Defoe today seen people saying ade was limping off at the endOff course we are not.
Nobody at the club believes it either.
That is why we chose to cash in on Defoe (with NO replacement let alone upgrade) and why we would rather have Holtbys wages than his services.

Massively agree not sure what games people are watching sometimes, bentaleb was not great against city but he's been ok so far our weak links are Dawson, Lennon and soldado, they are providing far more problems imo.IF he hadn't scored, I'd have agreed with you!
Lennon & Soldado were our weak links today not Nabil... a fit-again Townsend will hopefully keep Lennon on his toes!
Hopefully ONE of Ade & Robbie will be fit for next weekend!
Yeah, fucking joker - only sat at the back and flapped his handsStats do not lie. I have changed my mind. Bentaleb was outstanding today. Lloris was the weak link. The fucker barely made any passes and had zero shots on goal. Lloris out

I swear some people collate all stats at the end of every game for every team and at the end of the season decide how well we have done according to number of diagonal balls hit in the 59th minute of every match we've playedYeah, fucking joker - only sat at the back and flapped his hands
hahhaa you're quite hostileshut up you fuckn little monkey
No - I saw displaced passes at crucial attacking phases and general passive play. He can knock 400 side ways passes to Verts and get in his way - but that won't make him Zidane because ALL stats are contextualYou know what you saw today because you made up your mind before the game was played. You would never give Bentaleb credit no matter what he did.
Yeah stats mean nothing at all because it is better to not complete passes, create chances, or dispossess the other team. None of these things are important in a football match. Makes sense.
I agree, I'm sure if we combine all of our positive thoughts, we'll win the league, forget fighting for 4th.Too much negativity isn't going to change anything but put pressure on the team. Let's just get behind the team!

You can spin this any pro-Timmy way you want - but I'll tell you as much - I have no issues with him pushing youngsters through but there has to be balance and reason. The kid has played in every game which is ridiculous, imv
Why dont we have sad smiley agree button?so lets sum this up we are not good enough for 4th
There's a difference between saying the same shit over and over and criticism. We all know this season's been shit, don't need people telling me how bad it is every 5 mins.I agree, I'm sure if we combine all of our positive thoughts, we'll win the league, forget fighting for 4th.
