His game has to be simplified. He's been told to attack and provide the width on the RW, but when we lose the ball, he's expected to get back and defend. He can't do that much work. If he's going to play as a RW, he needs the MF to plug the hole he leaves, like Klopp did at Liverpool, when Trent and Robertson attacked. Otherwise tell him defending is the priority and play an actual winger that stays wide and doesn't drift infield.

Man City's transfers have generally been spot on, but image buying Nunes and selling Palmer. This guys a nothing footballer.

God help us if Dawson has any input for the West Ham game.

Well the good news is, according to Jonny Evans, Ruud is obsessed with defending. Let's hope he solves the conundrum, that is our right hand side.

Enzo doesn't want him. He took KDH and left Winks behind, who's now acting like a love sick puppy.

He may not be as good as he once was, but in attack he's top of our assist charts and 2nd in through balls played. In defence he's the top tackler and 2nd for interceptions and headed clearances, and yet he's the problem. It would be interesting to see if he doesn't play and we use 2 of Soumare, Winks or Skipp. I think alot will realise just how important Ndidi still is to our team.

Mads easily MOM, even though we conceded 4. Tells it's own story

Even worse then Cooper. Hopefully we'll see the back of this useless twat after this game.

This could be 6 or 7. Ref blow the whistle.

Brought it on ourselves, playing the likes of Thomas, Soumare and Faes.

Yeah, surely clubs like Plymouth and Cov should be giving lower league managers a chance, instead of going for big names but awful managers, like Rooney and Lampard.

Abit worrying, all this talk of him falling out with players at PSV and them going to the hierarchy to complain. Sounds like what our players would do.

O'Neil like most other media people, base their opinion on 2 things, league position and the fact that we're perceived to be a yoyo club. They can't understand that a club with the 7th highest wage bill shouldn't be relegated. Apparently it was the fans entitlement that got Rodgers sacked, not his own inadequacies. This season we're not in the relegation zone yet, so we should be happy with Cooper. We're playing the worse football in the PL, something even Merson admitted, but in the same breath said we shouldn't sack Cooper. That's the thinking process, you're shit but you should be happy with being shit.

Very true, there's no comparison between us and Brighton. They are a very well run club from the owner downwards, using complex analytics in picking players and managers. We on the hand make our decisions by picking names out a hat. Hopefully RVN is successful.

Those 2 games epitomised Cooper's mindset. Playing an ordinary team low on confidence, Cooper decided we should sit back and let them do whatever they pleased. 8 goals conceded against these lot, what a joke.

It's an early Christmas present from Top, credit to him, I didnt think he was ruthless enough to sanction this. It's best for both parties, we can get a decent manager and Cooper can go back to managing at a lower level.

We kept the wrong CB. Can you image any striker out muscling Souttar, like Faes gets done on a regular basis.

It's a typical home game under Cooper. We sit back and invite pressure regardless of the opposition, even Everton battered us in the 1st half. I can't believe Rudkin and Top see the games and think everything's fine.

Disgusting performance. Slow, lazy and clueless.The easiest game Man Utd have played all season. We're marching towards the Championship, where they're waiting to give us a double digit point deduction.

Sack him and get Van Nistelrooy in.

When is this ugly fucher going to make a sub

Dont worry, goal machine Ayew will get us back in it. That's if he can stay on his feet.

In time he wouldn't look out of place in the Man City midfield. With De Bruyne, Silva and Gundogan getting on abit, I can see them putting in a +50M offer for him, if Pep stays around.

In the last 8 seasons 35pts has been enough. I can't see this season being an exception. We need 25pts more from 28 games, very doable.
