I said it a week ago but it's a fucking disgrace, like. Middle of August and still excuses being made about needing 2 or 3 more players. It's a fucking joke. We've made something like £50m on player sales.

The money would just disappear anyway. What's the point?

We've just deservedly lost to two poor Championship sides playing absolutely dreadful negative football. Wigan Athletic scored more goals today than we've managed shots on target in 180 minutes. Effectively this is the club's lowest point for over 24 years. I think folk have a right to be concerned, like. We should still get promoted but big changes need to be made that frankly shouldn't be being made 2 games into the season.

This Yeah, you were still defending McClaren in March, though. My only worries are he's obviously not stressed the need for new players to the two cunts in charge. That and the fact his way of playing football won't see us finish top 2. He'll have to change it, hopefully he isn't too stubborn. What the fuck does that have to do with anything? You've had shit opinions before, the only differences is that I can admit when I'm wrong, whereas you get precious and can't accept that your godlike opinion isn't fact. No, it's just far more credible than yours. I'm 100% right in this instance, though.

We saw that with Pardew, though. We looked most fragile defensively when we had the most defensive players on the field. You don't get anywhere in English football by setting up not to lose.

We need new players and a new approach to games at this level. The traditional Benitez way won't work.

I don't see what good a 'wake up call' is for the players. It's not their fault some of them aren't good enough and it's not them picking 2 defensive midfielders and 1 striker at home to fucking Huddersfield Town.

No, we need to buy players fit for purpose for once.

And now we bring Adam fucking Armstrong on and start hoofing it. Pathetic. Garbage.

Us and Leeds bottom of the league.

Every time Anita's been mentioned he's given the ball away. Inspired stuff to play him RW.

In reality Rafa should just switch him and Anita really. Its easier to attack from right back. He should sub Anita and put on someone who can play someway attacking but that's not going to happen That's the thing. Don't think Rafa will play an attacking player on that side with Janmaat, which is frustrating, but it's who he is. Madness would've been a better word.

In reality Rafa should just switch him and Anita really. His best quality is overlapping the winger. Rafa should put Ritchie infront of him and bring Perez on for Anita. It's really not rocket science, like.

Lowes: Keeper should have done so much better. Sky: Great save from the keeper.

A fucking goal from open play. Who knew?

Dummett to take it.

Anita still on the wing, man. This is atrocious.

There's not two defensive midfielders though 3 last week, 2 this week. Count. Who are the two defensive midfielders? Unless Anita isn't playing on the wing as per the team sheet then there's only Hayden. And Anita. He's a DM, not a winger. He's about as much a winger as Colback's a striker. I agree that Anita shouldn't be playing and get your point that he'll offer nothing, but we're not setup playing a formation with 2 defensive midfielders. This was my point given that people are saying the formation is setup negative. It's not, we just have a shit player on the wing that we don't want there (because Ritchie had a knock). We've got Anita on the wing, another DM in the centre and 1 striker on the field at home to Huddersfield and that's not a negative setup? Fuck off, man.

This is it like. Even under Rafa this has never changed. We never play fucking football, just ponderous crap followed by crosses into the box. Only times we ever look decent is now and again when a game is open and stretched and we do some shit on the break. And we can forget about that happening too much this season.

Problem is we'll probably play long balls to him.
