So far we are being visibly outplayed by Burnley.
Eh? You’re taught from about 10 years old to go up and then you win a freekick almost guaranteed there when they come through the back of you.No, he was waiting for the ball to come to him. In that situation you'll always lose to the opposition in player storming in from behind you.
Yeah, I didn't say waiting for the ball to come to you is good, just that he wasn't pulling out of anything.Fecking contest it so the opposition player can't just do what he wants with it.
Kompany could come on and cause us problems.The player coming on for Burnley, Tresor, got more assists than any player in any European league last season. Could cause us problems
Because maguire wouldn’t move his arseWe were linked with Kim Min Jae, Pavard and Todibo and we end up with a geriatric statue who wasn't good enough 10 years ago.
We've been outplayed by every team we've faced this season. It's appalling footballSo far we are being visibly outplayed by Burnley.
Maybe.... but can we do it without involving the GK, that's the questionCan this team string 5 passes together?
Thiago Silva pushing 40 and he's not too bad. Evans just isn't very good, but to be fair we have a bunch of injuriesA top team starting with a 35 year old defender is a shambles
Where did I say waiting for the ball to come to him was a good thing?Eh? You’re taught from about 10 years old to go up and then you win a freekick almost guaranteed there when they come through the back of you.
We were told by some on here Pavard wouldn't be a proper upgradeWe were linked with Kim Min Jae, Pavard and Todibo and we end up with a geriatric statue who wasn't good enough 10 years ago.
Part of me thinks "if I get sacked, they have to pay me off, if I walk they don't" could be swimming around his head.I can’t see ETH lasting until Christmas. Something is massively wrong. Has he lost the dressing room?
I’d see just how many we could sell to Saudi Arabia in January before the money dries upIf someone comes in with 50m for Rashford I'm taking it.
Burnley are no mugs. We'll do well to grab a draw with this line upSo far we are being visibly outplayed by Burnley.
At what point does it become clear that it has nothing to do with the manager? We can't keep sacking one after another every couple of years when the same problem has persisted across every post-SAF manager, and will persist with the next as well, and the next. All we get out of sacking managers is a never-ending state of transition. It's like constantly sacking your chauffeurs because the car is fecked up.I can’t see ETH lasting until Christmas. Something is massively wrong. Has he lost the dressing room?
Perhaps none of the academy prospects have shown what is needed to make the step up.We have something called an academy. We used to use it to fill in on the odd occasion. Instead we continue to use the same players that put in zero effort and have failed several previous Managers because... and yet we expect a different result due to magic?
These players need a kick up the arse, they need to be embarrassed and benched by an academy player that will actually play for the team instead of sulking.
How big? Leffe has had me pissed after a few beforeI've got a huuuuge bottle of Leffe in the fridge. Either I'm opening it to enjoy this game if we take control of it, or I'm having it to drown my sorrows.
