I bet you're still glad we didn't sign Townsend.

Pitiful. The absolute shit in this league and we're genuinely not even a top 6 side at SJP.

Why'd you have to talk so much rubbish all the time?

It's hardly a question of effort. It's just a combination of a passive approach and players collectively unsuited to breaking teams down.

Our last loss was 6 days before the six nations started

Getting Colback off and adding another attacking threat will create chances though that's just common sense Well, yeah I'd put Perez on at this point. I wouldn't bring on Murphy yet, though.

Not sure how playing another striker is going to remedy the fact that we aren't creating chances, like. We need a different approach. By the sounds of it moving up and compressing the game a bit.

Have we even worked their keeper once? It's pretty abject, like. We had the 7th best home record in the league before today. Doesn't work.

Problem is in certain positions everything we have available is of pretty poor quality.

And plenty on here defended it, too.

You're an idiot, like.

It's a mentality problem from some of the players, IMO. That's why we have 23% possession at home? Aye, OK.

There's no denying that's fucking ridiculous at home, like.

Any need? I thought Gayle's hamstring had fallen off in the tunnel or somat.

You say that but what you really mean is. "That cunt Gouffran isn't starting, get in!" We're playing 10 from our best 11 and it's the first time in months (if ever, this season) that's happened. That's what I mean, cocker.

Great lineup.

3 seasons, before Souness came and fucked it up.

Should be ashamed of yourself for this guff.

It always is.

It's a shame Kluivert and Shearer, especially, were both past their best when they played together. Would've been lethal even just 3 years earlier. Kluivert was such an unselfish player for someone of his stature and ability in front of goal.

80 points before the middle of March would be nice, got to be said.

Pretty sure I asked you to give me an example of a bad game he had last season and you couldn't, mind. He's a good defender in both leagues. Problem is when we're in the Prem we'll need a bit more about us going forward at home so an upgrade would be welcomed.

The internet needs a scapegoat, even when we're smashing a division to pieces. I dinnah, like. Him and Colback are easy to single out when the result influences your opinion for obvious reasons. The reason with Dummett being that he's defensively sound, but atrocious with the ball at his feet. Not Mike Williamson bad, but definitely one that needlessly hoofs it fairly often. He's cut down on it recently tbf though, maybe Rafa's had a word with him about it. Whatever he intentionally does on the pitch will be pretty much exactly what Rafa's told him to do. It he hoofs it it's because that's what Rafa's told him to do in that situation. He's not a very good passer so it doesn't make sense him trying to play it along the floor forward to the midfield or across to the other defenders. Doing that is obviously needlessly dangerous.

What the fuck were Derby thinking bringing back McClaren? Club that size could surely do much, much better.

Both in April.
