Hes kicked off and called him/them a disgrace because of some 10 year old being let down when they wouldn't take a photo with the kid. Supposedly got nothing to do with the result.

And his strengths are? Seriously, his hold up play is shocking, he can't head a ball, he does not know how to run the channels and his movement in the box is non existent. Never in a million years is this bloke a striker! I don't think hes a striker either. However, he shows flashes of decent play on the wings now and again. Having said that, I do feel for him because there is usually fuck all for him to pass to most of the time he has the ball with him in the final third and/or when its hoofed up to him. He's shit, but I feel he could look somewhat decent if we had something of a well drilled attacking plan. Still, not a 40m player and most certainly not a striker/player you rely on for regular goals at this level - which just makes the transfer all the more baffling.

I also thought he played alright today. Honestly, I am starting to feel for this guy. He's no way a 40m player but I have no doubt he would be much better if the team actually played to his strengths and had an actual well trained attacking plan.

Occasionally tidy but too casual for the most part. Not involved enough and loses the ball in key plays/areas. Bit weird letting Ki go only to be served up what hes serving up. Early days but signs aren't really indicating much to be excited about.

Its hard to see where our goal would have come from even if they haven't scored their 2 It is so painful how much we need a midfielder than gets into goal scoring positions or a striker thats half clinical at this level.

Red for Choudhary. Filthy cunt.

Assuming Longstaff (Sean) gets somewhat back to the form we saw last season at some point (if that even happens with us again) then this will have been the right decision Which just comes to show how much of a stinker in form Longstaff is having right now to even consider this guy leaving being a mistake. He had the odd decent game but was mostly timid and not upto pace.

SSN: Giroud turning us down a second time Feels good man.

Don't really see the issue of him using us as a stepping stone and being honest about it from the off. It is a loan after all, hes not our player As long as he does his job he can fuck back off with blessings if they want him back

To be fair??? Why the fuck should any-one be fair to an areshole like Bruce??? Or are you making excuses for a shite performance against a poor team? Is it the fault of the players or the manager? Who trains, motivates, pushes the players? Oh, our useless idiot of a dinosaur manger. Fair to him? Never in my lifetime will I be fair to him. I've already replied to this. And I've already said I've demonstrated what I really think in the wrong manner. You make it sound like I don't already know he is out of depth and shouldn't be here.

You do realise they also missed chances yes? Or does that not come into your equation? Of course not, but the point of being a Premier league player in comparison to a League 1 player is to be more clinical overall. Especially against lower opposition. Anyway, of course I'd rather have anyone half competent as a manager at this level than him. I tried making a point demonstrating the players also share a big responsibility for today in the wrong manner.

I'm in no way shape or form saying hes not faultless because for his one quality that anyone rates him for here (motivation/man-management) he clearly failed to get that to work in this game given how dire it was But what I am saying is - Lascelles and Almiron's chances are down to them and them alone, that is what lead to us not winning more than any shithousery from Bruce and his incompetence. They were clear cut chances right in front of goal that they are players of the quality to be able to finish that.

Football isn't simply about picking your best 11. :lol: Nor is it solely the manager's fault for the stinkers of an effort in front of goal the likes of Almiron, Lascelles and Joelinton presented today. All of them them are of the calibre of quality to finish any of that. Its strange that its luck when we win and then its down to him when we don't.

That's a Premier league 11 playing against a League 1 side They should have the quality to win regardless, the same quality to win regardless of who the manager is just like you were all saying when we were winning Premier league games this year despite of Bruce.

ASM and Almiron with stinkers Lascelles should have buried that. Very very poor from everyone today, lucky that Oxford did not have the quality to be clinical.

To be fair, that team he put out tonight should have won the game. I don't think this result is on him.

Hahaha fuck you Everton. Cunts

HAHAHAH

Getting 2m for him now would be a good deal. Man, this is unfortunate. You folks are really prepared to just throw this guy away now. I hear you Kaka, but he has been shocking - regardless of off-field circumstances. Throw him away? He's been shit, pathetic, hopeless, no spark, no creativity, no sign of anything remotely positive. Gives the ball away again and again and offers sweet fuck all. All Bruce's fault then?

Not really a spectacular player, does his job at a decent level but doesn't really offer much and is injured quite a lot. Wouldn't mind seeing the back of him soon.

Didn't think he looked that bad today but still not someone who should be anywhere near our team

Although unlucky for the header, he had time to compose himself for a proper shot on target the one he fluffed late in the game Having said that, contributed to making our winning goal so fair play.

Imagine these fucks turning up in the second half at theirs to play like this here

Hope we don't get any injuries now

Nice to see his goal against Palace wasn't a one off and that the goals are starting to come for him now. He will score a few more before the end of the season, very much needed.
