When do we start to ask serious questions then? How many times has this got to happen? 

But but but we are doing so well in the league and Uefa.

 

His tactics are horrendous 2 nil down and start cant muster up attacking play.

Fuchs was absolutely dog shit. Every time he gets the ball, backwards pass to evans. When do the good players get back.

After the international break supposedly so f#ck knows

Rodgers takes full responsibility for that, shocking team to start with 

No, he'll take responsibility, but he can't take credit for the complete lack of trying. The clumsiness of Fuchs, the awful passes we've tried. 

[Stuntman_Mike]

There's just no excuses for that. 

 

I can't even find any humour in this one. 

 

Such a wasted opportunity again, every ****ing time.

 

 

[nnfox]

Goal aside, for the last 25 minutes, whilst playing against one of the worst teams in the league, in desperate need of a goal, we had Tielemans, Maddison, Under, Iheanacho, Barnes and Vardy on the pitch.

 

Not. A. Single. Chance.

 

That's on the manager.

 

Woeful.

[bfox]

I’m most concerned about being our inability to shift gears quickly when we need to, clearly we persist with the same grim horse shoe shaped football we begin with.. at 0-2 .. Maddison and Fuchs congrats, worst performance I’ve seen in a while. 

[Kopfkino]

Fulham defended well, have gotten much better defensively bar last week. As with West Ham, none of our lot really turned up, too arrogant first half and never really looked like doing much thereafter. Terrible defending for the first but got to start games better, it’s too slow and controlled.
 

Need to confront the fact that Vardy offers absolutely nothing in these games.

[winteriscoming]

Dreadful. Have to blame Rodgers. He’s clueless when sides come and put 10 men behind the ball. 

[adam]

Not acceptable. **** nos what rodgers says to them before the game. We think we are better than we are and our attitude stinks. No urgency at all and no one looks half interested. Rubbish. Rodgers team selection looked wrong before hand and proved so. 

I have no idea what he will do against Sheffield United. Where do we go from there 

[whoareyaaa]

last two league games have been dreadful, don't know if its fatigue or formations but something has to change.

 

our home form is shocking and we have setup to defend a few times and its cost us, to defence minded with the attacking threat we posses 

 

 

[Fox92]

Embarrassing performance and team selection before hand. If I'm allowed to say that. 

[vanity]

 

In all seriousness, this team is too finesse-oriented. We need more toughness. I had hoped we had found some of that after last season's collapse, but then we play matches like this where we get face-fuched by bad sides because we are soft and do not match their energy and desire. We used to have that most weeks, we had a bunch of scrappers, though they lacked this side's talent. Now we are like Arsenal-lite -- capable of pretty football on our day but soft AF if the other side are physical and force us to fight. Which is why we can handle a finesse-oriented Man City team, and then look like absolute dogshite against a team like Liverpool.

 

These are the games that will cost us CL in the end. Not losses to Liverpool, but losses to relegation fodder like f'ing Fulham.

[peterborofox]

Absolutely embarrassing and woeful performance. 

 

Really one of the worst for ages. So many off performances, including that of the manager. When will he learn that this system isn't effective for us against poor teams who counter attack.

 

Fulham gave it 100% but they weren't very good. We gave it to them. The poor passing, poor positional play, the lot. The delivery from corners was an abomination. Under hitting it knee height in the last min was shocking. 

 

Fuchs was dog shit. Not seen him so bad. Fofana was wank as well especially first half. 

 

We've lost 4/10 games. Not good enough let's be honest, considering who we have lost three of these to.

[happy85]

Playing 3 at the back against a low block team it doesn’t work

 

what do I know

Actually pleased we didn't rescue a point there.

 

We didn't deserve it. Some of those players need taking down a peg or two. They need dressing down and a rescued point would have papered over bigger issues.

 

Especially Maddison the arrogant tw@t.

 

Really pissed off at that performance.

100%. We need to own that defeat and learn from it. 

[rachhere]

Wrong team selection, injuries finally catching up with us and ultimately just one of those days. We learn from this and move on. 

[EnderbyFox]

Remember when we thought Maddison was on par / better than Grealish. Crazy how he has regressed, I'd rather we had a throw in than one of his corners.

Yes and no. We've been that bad at least 8 times in 2020. And mostly against absolute cannon fodder. Brendan needs to pull his finger out.

Its certainly up there. Doesn't beat Bournemouth away though

[South Shire Fox]

Utterly utterly toothless, doing the same slow sideways passing over and over and over again isnt going to break a team down. It just lets the opponent get back into positions. Absolute shit show. Cant wait to have Ricardo and Castagne back so we can actually have full backs who overlap and create attacking oppurtunities instead of the drips who just stand back and watch as Harvey Barnes get crowded out by 3 players on him like a rash.

[Mike Oxlong]

Any chance the players will pay for my Sky subscription for the month ?

Unacceptable. They decided to add urgency to their game in the 84th minute. That shows laziness, poor preparation and stupidity. It was ****ing shit. 

There wasn't even much urgency then. Fulham never really looked troubled at all. I'm pretty confident that will be their only away win all season and they probably deserved to win by more. Very, very disappointing.

Have a rummage down your pants and try to find your bollocks Brendan, the ****ing Harrods Pulis.

 

Crowbarring Fuchs in at CB, when we don't need a third CB - is borderline cowardly.

Brendan the scapegoat as per. Yawn. 

 

Players were terrible 

[peterborofox]

Can't wait to hear Rodgers say the players are tired and fatigued. 

 

Should come out and admit he's got it wrong yet again at home

[RonnieTodger]

Booed so hard my TV fell down

[Tanya]

How utterly appalling from everyone,  but most obviously the manager.

Rodgers is class but he got it extremely wrong tonight. 4 1 4 1 the way to go but he bottled it.

 

Appalling performance. Everyone barr Kasper and JJ should be ashamed.
