midds

Crying out for a 4-1-4-1 tbh. Tiote sitting. Cabaye and Sissoko in the middle, Ben Arfa one side, Gouffran the other with Cisse on the last man. Just move the midfield 10 yards forward and get on the front foot.

Same squad + Same manager = Same performances. Why the fuck did anyone expect anything different? We're a complete shambles at every level and 12/1 to go down looks pretty generous atm. I know it's only a friendly and the results should be treated with a certain degree of caution but the alarm bells should be ringing like fuck.

Bad business this like.

Couldn't give the first fuck.

100% this. Fuck them.

Just waiting for Wise now. Kerazy Gang reunites.

ding ding ding ding ding... The players aren't the weakest link in the chain by a fucking mile.

This is it in a nutshell. No. Don't care, no. Just no.

I fucking hate this club.

He's now, pretty much, their main striker. He does well, they do well... You need to wash your hands of him until he moves on to a different club tbh chap.

A line in the sand HAS to be drawn. You in the red corner or the blue, Mike?

Bet it clicks like fuck then.

They've signed 'Jackereenie' apparently marra.

"Hope he does well." is a betrayal? Of course it is. Confucius say “Man who walk down middle of road get hit by truck going both ways”. Make your mind up chap.

He'll start to regain some credit if he manages to solve the problems rather than just identify them. Any fucking retard could see where we're short, doing something about it is a different matter entirely. He's genuinely lucky he still has the opportunity to manage us imho.

Yeah Perch, for all his limitations, actually contributed last season. Gosling gave/gives you nothing at all.

No axe to grind but he's shown precisely fuck all to make me believe he belongs in this league. Glad to see him moved on, he's just not good enough.

Would much rather see players come in first before we move a few on. Harper, Simpson and Perch made 73 appearances between them last season and they need to be replaced. I can see the logic for moving all 3 on but for a club/manager who whinged like a girl about lack of squad depth it's a bit of a pisstake to shift them on before looking at replacements.

After these posh cunts have bought their new fucking mansion I assume?

In many ways it doesn't really matter who comes out who goes, the bloke in charge of the team is useless and I've got zero faith in him. He simply can't get the best out of his squad and he is the replacement we need. You can buy him as many good players as you want he's still going to under achieve with them.

Was only a matter of time... http://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/soccer/transfer-news/sunderland-prepare-7million-bid-beat-2011857

It's simply an awful football shirt, far too busy and contrived. Constantly surprised at how they manage to ruin it on an annual basis.

Good job the Uruguayans have a track record of accepting defeat gracefully.

I just don't see what gathering people together to raise concerns to club officials is going to achieve. Ashley simply doesn't give a fuck and he'll do as he pleases regardless of the discontent it creates. He owns us lock, stock and barrel and I genuinely don't believe our concerns even register on his fuckometer. The only choice we have is to turn out backs on the club or continue to support them. Each to their own but protests, boycotts, rallies and talk-ins will amount to nothing imo. If he was someone who listened and was prepared to adapt things then I'd be all for it but he's not. He'll do as he wants.
