  • I don’t blame ETH for everything that has gone wrong this season. Injuries have had a huge impact and certain individuals have let the team massively. But the tactics we are employing weekly are just reckless and no way to consistently get...

    Maguire and Casemiro at the back? Going to get battered anyway.
  • siw2007 replied to the thread Post match vs Chelsea.
    Absolutely heartbreaking. Didn’t deserve to lose that, probably would have taken a draw but the team has bottled it completely. Penalty at the end was very unlucky as Dalot fell over and into the Chelsea player but we should have managed the game...
  • siw2007 replied to the thread Chelsea vs Manchester United.
    Crazy game of football, one of too many mistakes from either team, can’t work out who’s worse for errors right now. We are too open on the counter but they are prone at the back as well. It’s a good fight back from the team so far anyway, need to...
  • It might be worth noting that last season when we were pretty much playing 3 games a week and had no real time to train, the players maintained their fitness by just playing games and using the little off time to recover. We didn’t accumulate...
  • I am guessing that after a long lay off, he has over worked in training and strained the muscle. I would have hoped that the coaching team would have managed his fitness better. This is a pretty damning moment in our season.
  • siw2007 replied to the thread What is our problem ?.
    I believe that the manager sets the team up to play this chaotic style of play. I don’t think he believes that he can get this team to dominate games through possession so he tries to turn the game into one of high possession turnovers and many...
  • siw2007 replied to the thread Just how bad were we today?.
    It felt like the worst performance of the season to me. Not necessarily the worst result, but the performance felt like the worst.
  • siw2007 replied to the thread Post match vs Brentford.
    I don’t know where to start. That was absolutely atrocious from the team today, the standard of football that we displayed today was terrible. We let Brentford off with it at the end there, but in truth, they should have battered us 6-0, it’s the...
  • siw2007 replied to the thread Brentford vs Manchester United.
    Underwhelming first half performance. Brentford have really got at us this half and are lucky to go in at the break all square. More tempo and more quality needed to break down this Brentford team.
  • Agreed, plenty of more high profile England players have had a bad run in the national team but Dunk just looked out of his depth tonight.
  • Good job England, we played relatively well considering the amount of injuries this side has. It was 2 very poor defensive lapses that cost us the win. Lewis Dunk has probably played himself out of the England team with another error in as many...
  • siw2007 replied to the thread England Discussion.
    Congrats to Kobbie on his first call up. I didn’t expect him to get called up so soon but it’s testament to the quality and impact he has shown for us in a short space of time. I don’t think he will get many minutes for England in the next few...
  • My player of the season so far alongside Garnacho. Super consistent.
  • We should be massive favourites to get to the final from here, however we must show them respect. They have done extraordinary well to get this far, they will be full of confidence and will go into this game with nothing to lose. That makes them...
