I couldn't post yesterday due to my anger, and sheer heartbreak.
We were atrocious all over the pitch.
Slow, slow, slow, long balls, miss-controlled passes, everything was terrible.
Simply no positives to take from that game.
5 draws, 1 defeat, with another most likely on the way at Chelsea, our away form is abysmally poor, that is where 3rd has been thrown away.
We need to have a long hard look at ourselves in the proverbial mirror, as that, yesterday was utterly pathetic it was awful.
Villa had a keeper in net who hadn't played for ages, and we didn't test her.
This summer we need a good clear out, we need to be ruthless if we want to have any hope of pushing on up to 3rd, nevermind any higher than that.
We need to sort out the mess that is our scouting department for a start.
What is happening with our goalkeepers?
Will Ramsey or Baggers be number two?
Or will it be Petal, as both of thise two are far too good to just be wasting their respective careers sitting on the bench doing naff all.
With Mannion out for possibly the next season, we need to get serious & bring in a replacement for her.
If Millie is back great, but we should say thanks & goodbye to both Caldwell & Thor, neither are good enough to push us to 3rd place.
Harris is a waste of a wage, Smith can stay as a rotation/back up.
Moore & Staniforth the jury is still very much out on them, I still have no idea why we signed Moore, especially because she was injured when we did, I have no idea how she passed her medical exam.
Then, Thomas, Bruun, & Fuso can all be, & should be let go, as none of them will be missed.
I would rather we had kept Ross or Siggy than have brought in Thomas, & Bruun has been an utter disaster & a huge flop of a move, she has spent more time out injured than playing, I mean where was she yesterday??
Send her straight back to Lyon, no wonder they were so happy to loan her out.
Just another sign of our desperation and panic in the market.....doesn't exactly bode too well for the summer sadly.
With the uncertainties over the futures of Turner, Ona, Zelem, Jackie and Russo, with regards to their contracts, then that just adds to our problems and issues.
The only positive now is the youth side, they have been fantastic/unbelievably good, however even that is slightly tempered by the fact that Marc seems very much against using any of them sadly.
I mean he could have used Karna or Edwards, but no, instead he went out of his way, to distance himself from them, and brought in the flop that has been Bruun.
I just don't belive he is bothered or interested in the youth team players in the slightest sadly.
It is a huge mess right now, we need a huge overhaul, both on the pitch and off of it.
I am not a happy bunny right now.
These last two games now are just pointless and leave me feeling empty, where I should be feeling optimistic.
We have gift wrapped 3rd place to City, and we didn't even put a single bit of effort into trying to prevent them from once again getting CL football.
