    When you buy Brentford’s best player and then lose 3-1 to Brentford something isn’t right.

    I don’t know how long we can keep pretending that this isn’t because we’ve got manager whose bizarrely dedicated to one formation.

    Things are way worse than dedication for formation

    - Playing Bruno in deep midfield
    - Starting Dalot, Shaw, and Maguire - neither of whom are anywhere close to being good. A trio who has sacked at least three managers already and will get Amorim sack as well

    These idiotic decisions had nothing to do with formation. We would have lost with 4-3-3 as well

    I agree to an extent.

    However, why is he playing Bruno deep midfield? Because he won't change formation and playing Bruno as a CM is the only way you can fit in Cunha, Sesko, Mbeumo and Cunha in his system.

    Why you'd pick our slowest back three against a team we're expected to play a high line against is beyond me.

    That almost always happens with us.
    A player/team struggling for months come to OT and have the game of their life.

    I don't have any animosity towards Amorim - he is trying his best. The issue is that the just isn't good enough for the EPL. Same for Ole, same for ETH.
    At this point, the only solution I see to solve our issues is for an Arabian group to come along, buy the club and insist on massive changes. They'll fire A LOT of people and insist on bringing in the best people. They won't care about the business side of the club. They'll only care about the on-pitch performances. Only after we are back competing for big trophies will they start looking at stabilising the club as a business.
    I honestly can't see any other way of solving this mess.
     


    Why am I not shocked that we got screwed over on that decision?? Time and time again. Also every manager we have lately just stays silent. Put some pressure on this idiots!
     
    VAR has been as bad as ever this season. They really ought to bin it, but at some point it will just fully turn the game into a shadow of what it used to if it hasn’t already. It’s absolute bollocks.
