Oh yeah, I'd hate to have Moyes here. Some thick weirdos on this board, like.

Of course we did.

All the options are just as bad as each other, so it's a moot point really. It's not, really. Mbabu looks the best all round based on limited appearances, Haidara gives away goals and generally contributes nothing in the final third in spite of his ability to carry the ball. Dummett's a CB and generally marks well and doesn't give goals away but obviously isn't good with the ball.

Homesick :lol: What's the joke?

As if there's anyone still wanting Haidara in the side.

It is absolutely atrocious, mind.

They took 4 points off us that season and we consequently got relegated instead of them, mind.

Didn't he move in the general direction of the ball and it hit his leg and bounced away? He played well but people afford far too much praise to keepers for really basic actions.

Agree with Spaceman, mind. £7m or whatever for a tidy/average footballer totally out of his depth in Premier League football. Stupid, stupid scouting.

We've needed a CB like Shawcross for over a decade. Unfortunately he'd cost more money than this lot would ever consider spending.

I don't think I've seen a significant lack of strength, mind. He's very decent at marking, tackling and heading so there's no reason he won't become a good option for CB.

Protecting. An another day we'd have conceded 5 against fucking Bournemouth.

Mourinho/Chelsea are just getting trolled by everyone this season.

Haters.

What the hell's he doing in the Championship, though? He's nowhere near good enough for that standard.

Coloccini played well today. You're still a shit poster, mind.

He's average. He shouldn't really be starting PL games. Better than Tiote and Colback though.

Thauvin? Do you want us relegated? No. I just want to see us creating the odd chance given that our two best players arguably are our forwards and that might help us win games.

Before anyone bites at this garbage it's worth taking into account that this poster rates Tiote.

It's weird. He has games where he looks like an utterly terrible, fucking atrocious defender.

1 fairly lucky goal in 3 games against 2 terrible defences doesn't bode well, mind. We've got to stop playing 4 CMs and just hoping for the 2 lads up front to feed off scraps and come up with something. Thauvin and/or de Jong need game time.

That's not how I remember it. We were shit that night obviously. Not this bad, though.

Nah, we looked like Barca circa 2010 at Ewood Park that night compared to this.

Move one of Sissoko or Wijnaldum central instead of Tiote to accommodate him, definitely.

Awful performance but a very welcome 3 points.
