Fear Of The Fox

Absolutely brilliant stuff. 30 more minutes and they were already knackered after the 75min mark. This horrible weather there makes it even more satisfying.

Did you prefer Coventry vs Sheff Wed instead? 😀 At least it's the only game today which isn't one sided.

It's not about Ederson. The problem is the ref. He's just incompetent. Even a 5yr old knows this is a foul. So these refs either they don't have a clue about the rules or there's something more serious happening behind the scenes.

Watching Man City struggling somewhat to play from the back against Brentford makes me a bit worried for next season. If Enzo decides to build on that style of play he needs to be properly backed by the board and do some serious business transfer wise in the summer.

Let's see then if my point above has any solid grounds. Surely Pochettino or any manager there would have been sacked 5 minutes after the final whistle.

Pochettino still on a Chelsea job means they know big disciplinary punishment is coming from both FA and UEFA so they're not bothered to make any changes until a final decision is made by the 2 associations.

I know a couple of Palace fans and they're both decent fans (they also rate us high). It depends on the ambition each establishment has. It seems our club by nature is more adventurous. Palace rely too much on safe moves for consistency and it's working for them so far. Everton is just a badly run club with toxicity from top to bottom.

25 goals already in 5 games...

The numbers for the next Euromillions please. Pm me. Thank you.

Most of the managers don't have a clue how to make proper subs without ruining the rhythm of their team and inviting pressure. Spurs were holding well until Ange started making stupid subs.

Too bad it can only be one of Forest/Everton going down unless Burnley suddenly start winning games or both of them have a points deduction decision (I think the decision will be in 2 weeks time).

The unwritten rule of football says that Bristol City will equalise with a shot deflection on 93min. It always happens against us though..

Their aim is to have thousands of "Taylor Swifts" and "influencers" attending the games in a few years time.

Klopp made 4 subs in 1 minute and he messed up his team's stability and chemistry.

Chelsea's lucky this is just 3-0. It should be 11-0 instead.

Is there a scientific research/explanation regarding the huge amount of injuries of the last 10 years or so? I think the numbers compared to early 00s and 80s/90s are shocking. Is it the pace of the modern game? It can't be down to increased physicality in terms of tackles etc because the sport looks way softer to me compared to previous decades.

Nailed it. In any other European league (especially Spain/Italy/Greece) BR would have been forced to resign or get the sack under the fans pressure. The majority of us were watching the ship sink but the stadium was a church service where BR was showing live his "sins" and almost everyone was accepting it. On the other hand, this season under Enzo there were many times our midfielders had acres of space to make runs forward or at least bring the ball quicker forward but they choose to backpass or sidepass instead. Why is this happening: Either they're following Enzo's instructions or they lack the quality to be more creative and aggressive pushing forward. Or it's the latter, Enzo knows about that, he doesn't have full confidence in them and prefers to play it safe as he knows the opposition won't be able to gegenpress. It seems we'll get promoted but we need a proper overhaul in certain positions. Enzo knows that, can the board meet the manager's expectations? This is the crucial question.

What makes you think we'll field a strong team against a PL team to test our tactics in full strength? We'll probably field Cover, Uncover and Support. Maidstone please either home/away or the easiest draw possible to reach the final eventually.

Barca 😀😀😀

All the criticism done here was legit/valid mate.

Praet is out of his natural position trying to hold the midfield on his own because Hamza decided he's a cricket player instead of a proper footballer.

What do you expect Praet to do? Praet is still a good player when he has proper support. Fielding a random first XI will never work. What's the point? Is Cover growing confidence from this shambles? I'm more creative in the kitchen than Hamza.

I disagree but I think this argument is endless. I think we should take seriously every single game by playing our best XI. These players earn thousands per day, I'm sure they can handle some extra games.

I'm very disappointed we're not taking this glorious historical FA Cup tradition seriously. Yes, I understand we have a lot of important games coming up.
