Sorry but this is knee jerk reaction.This as been coming for months. Been playing rubbish for a long long time

He's just overrated.

Don't think he's got a bollocking in him. Think he wants to be everyone's mate unfortunately. He doesn't seem to be able to get them going from the first whistle.

Go ahead slag me off but I am not convinced by BR. I honestly don't understand some of his tactics. I often wonder what they must be doing in training because they definitely are not practicing defending corner, attacking corner, free kicks into the box or shooting practice.

This current team has no grit, metal so to speak. Today was boys against men. Same as the Liverpool game. Tired of the injury excuse. Liverpool had several injuries too and wrapped us a new one. Also Brendan Rodgers tactics of a straight 5 at the back are poor. One simple pass between the defenders and we are sitting ducks. If it wasn't for Kasper and his whinging we would have lost by a lot more goals last 2 games. We seem to go through this pattern regular. Have a couple good wins they play Puel football for a few. No consistency or team leader I am afraid. No one who will take the game by the scruff. Say like Steve Walsh

Madders just doesn't look fit. Way too slow on the ball. Always looking to draw the free kick rather than beat a player. I am afraid he is always looking for the spectacular when a regular ball to a player in a better position is available. Since his return from injury we seem to be carrying him. He is not contributing in midfield. Might be he is coming too deep and just lays a simple sideways pass. He should be picking the ball up in the final third of the pitch. He has talent but unfortunately hasn't shown it this season. I got to give Freakish credit, he does leave his body on the pitch. Madders would rather be gelling his hair.

Barnes and Perez completely ineffective at the moment and the last pass is dreadful

We are being beaten by Ranieri tactics against us. West Ham playing like we did Championship season

The great Steve Whitworth. Remember him bombing down the right wing in 1974 at Filbert Street and for England at Wembley

We should be already playing because our guys never showed up to play in the restart so should be all nice and fresh

Cheers

Lol. Sod off

Agree about the players after we won the league mate. Definitely. Take care. Hope you and yours are well and safe mate.

This is the one of the main reasons why I was so livid about our capitulation after Christmas and especially with only 10 games to go and a 14 point advantage. We all know that the big teams will mortgage their clubs to sweep in and buy all the better players worldwide at discounted prices. Not finishing top 4 and qualifying for Champions League we are less attractive to better players and will not have that Champions League money. Also the 5 substitution rule is basically a gift to the bigger clubs who can now guarantee quality fringe players with more playing time during the season, in Europe and the Cup games. Don't know why any of the so-called lesser teams ever agreed to such a rule. Pathetic. Mind you FIFA probably didn't even consult with the smaller teams. They just want the big clubs in the big competitions anyway. Even the stupid talking heads on Sky etc keep going on about, well we need the bigger clubs in the Champions League. They were doing my head in. Almost willing us the fold. All told I think it was a chance that we will probably never see again, getting into the top 4. Not for at least a generation anyway. I strongly feel the so-called shit*y big teams will only get bigger and the smaller teams will be fighting for 6-10 for respectability and safety. In the bitter end all the mega rich teams will have to leave their domestic leagues and form a European Super League. A rumour that has been bouncing around for some time now. Only inevitable.

I am kind of torn about what type of players we should be bringing in. Do we want to bring in younger players to develope only to sell after a couple of years at a profit or players with quality who will hopefully instantly make a difference to our current first team. My problem is, is that I feel we will just become a feeder club for the so-called big guys. We won't progress by selling our better players after a season or two. Also how many of the younger players will really develope into better players. By buying and nursing them we will end up with the crap and sell the better players. I know we will hold out for top money but I don't know how we will ever progress. Having a real problem deciding what is our better way to go. Any ideas?
