Yeah someone told him the squad is a bunch of pussies bar 1 or 2.. got told he agreed with it too. 

 

That soft under belly coming our again... shock.

But would he have gone back into the changing room and told them what the fans thought? And how likely is it to make a difference? 

[DANGEROUS TIGER]

I expected it. I said a week or so back that we can't cope in Europe. I also said a ninth or tenth place finish, so we had all better accept that.

 

When we won the Premiership, the following season was awful. We won the F A Cup last season, so I reckon a similar season will follow  It.s not that we don't have the talent, but to me it appears to be a psychological problem, with players unable to come to terms with starting from scratch again.

 

I'm not forgetting that certain person, who seems to be an extra player for the opposition.

Would he? Who knows. If he did it might wake a few of them up.

Not that awful. Last 8 of the UCL weren't bad.

Sick n tired of this slow, lacck lustre, sideways and backwards passing shite.  How bad is Soumare?  Noticed he cant trap a ball.  It seems to bounce off him and go 10 yards towards the opposition.  We look knackered, love to know what they are doing at Seagrave they certainly arent doing any running perhaps too much time in the swimming pool.

 

You realise its bad when bloody Steve Mcmanaman takes the piss out of  us, but he was right.

That was one of the worst things about yesterday. The bloke is such a negative, one-dimensional moron, and yet I found myself agreeing with him every time he opened his gob.

 

What is the world coming to?!

Is it just me who has never given a toss whether the players come over to clap the fans after away games or not? I understand why people think it's a good thing but it bemuses me how much some seem to care.

 

When we've lost I just want them to fvck off and get out of my sight

 

It’s just you.

I expect them to at least  turn towards the fans and wave or clap an acknowledgement. Those who went last night should be well pissed off with such an arrogant attitude.

Can't see that he did anything wrong tbh.

 

I must admit I haven't seen it since, I think the general opinion is it was poor decision. I was gutted, because it was a cheeky finish.

He is Andrew Golota. He was disqualified at least twice. Nutter.

Seems an odd choice for a white supremacist dog whistle, he repeatedly punched a black fighter in the nuts then got humiliated in the first round by Tyson, by his own corner, and by the crowd.

[Lesterlad]

Doubt this will be popular but is it just me that thinks we played better under Rodgers when it was Puels signing that started games.

....that is the usual comment used by managers to shut a conversation down!!!

I always wonder what the Coaches do in between matches, the same shortfalls that we see every week are still there in every game. Lack of movements, taking throw ins where it becomes an instant turnover to the opposition, not playing triangles, ineffectively heading the ball and finally keeping the ball on the ground and stop putting the ball in the air into the box, it is ineffective as we do not have players who are coached to make the runs to get on to balls played aerially.

  Just taking a look at the percentage of our corners hitting the near post. Put a big man at the near post about 5 yards towards the corner flag from the near post. Someone (a defender) will have to come and take up a position beside or in front of him. Any contact from the ball will be an incredibly difficult to adjust to by the Keeper or defenders. There are no innovations coming from the Coaching staff and we need to stop being so dour, in our approach and outlook.  

To be fair though mate, I played on a Sunday in the 90s with exactly this corner routine!

.....at least we will be attempting to make some kind of attempt to create scoring chances from this situation!!!

Whether this is an old fashion ploy, you know this game is cyclical, and the way that situation was neutralised was one man in front and one behind the attacker at the near post, (how many clubs are going to adopt that policy to defend)also this would in effect maximise our near post deliveries.

   We do the same defending corners as well as when we attack, we do not try anything new, we are poorly coached and are overlooking a major part of the game.

Nice when they do but I won’t be losing any sleep over them not doing it. 
 

If I was Perez, Vestegaard etc I wouldn’t come over after a loss you’re the scapegoat that’ll just get dogs abuse, nobody wants that.

We'll finish bottom of this group.

I don’t disagree we don’t look creative from corners (and Maddison is a woeful corner taker), and take your point. Just made me smile that your creative solution was a little Red Lion!!

In fairness, Perez did miss two absolute sitters - he's sh1t.

[CosbehFox]

You know sometimes the next game opposition have makes you realise that your result wasn’t that bad. 
 

Well Legia are losing again in the league, 3-0 after 70 mins. This will put them two points in front of the relegation zone…..
