Holy fuck stick we are shit

Cisse is brain dead today

Krul takes ages to get rid of the ball and when he does, it's a fucking hoof. Throw it out you moron.

Wtf cisse

Noble is having a fucking picnic in our half. Frontfoot football, my arse.

Why do we drop so deep when we defend?

For what it's worth, Twitter has turned against him, which I didn't see last year.

Yup. That's my feeling too.

Hatem shit but he's been active and involved, Sissoko has been quiet, Cisse invisible, Anita our best player, Debuchy sucks, the other three at the back okay and that leaves Shola is who an abomination.

Uninspiring dog shit

That was marginally better

Absolutely no movement in our team

Robert it, hatem

Shola is pathetic

Just because a guy is good at tactics and motivation doesn't mean he's good at spotting good players. That's the fallacy that these clubs make, they believe that managers who are good at one thing are good at everything. It's a completely different skill set and it should be treated differently and the persons in charge should be analysed and scrutinised as much as the manager. Football comprises of so many different issues that require specialised knowledge and experience. One guy is very rarely good enough to do more than one thing, whether that be spotting and signing players or creating a team and shaping it tactically.

then theres the other side of the equation where the DOF is all powerful and the manager has 0 say meaning he's getting players me might not want or need and might not rate in the slightest Then you sack the manager and get a new one. It's certainly easier than buying ten new players each year like some of these clubs do. disagree, the manager should always have the final say yes or no to someone since he's the guy actually working with them and expected to stitch them together into a cohesive unit, not some guy in a suit sitting in the directors box Nah, you pick a manager that has a style that suits the players. Then you listen to him on individual players if there's a problem but the general style has to be followed from the first team down to the youth teams. It's foolish to change managers and have to change philosophies.

People like Jol, Pardew and O'Neill are the best arguments for why every club needs a DoF/Head Scout to sign players, so that there is continuity in the team and the long term interests of the club are looked after. These managers don't care about the age of the players they sign or the length of the contracts given because they're 90% not going to be there when the contracts finish. Their job is to win now which is why they have no problem throwing money at old players which leaves the clubs in trouble in the long run.

I don't understand why Shola would start. Honestly. Why not Gouffran?

Soldado captain. This week is looking like it's going to be shit.

Shola is starting? Holy fucking shit, this is nearly 2014.

No Tiote and no Jonas? Wow, we're winning for sure.

6 points or else I'll be very disappointed.

How does this shit not have a proper, functioning mobile app, man? Fucking annoying. The mobile site is useless and apps that exist in the playstore all access the mobile site. Bloody useless.

I've had bad experiences transferring players early in the week so I make it a rule not to do anything before Thursday.
