Oh well, previous deals are going to fuck us. 
 

 

how do you even agree 'fair market value'?  Utter farce

Getting through this month will need some sort of new thinking with regards to personel and positions since it's clear that the current CM partnership/s will see us absolutely fucking botted for the foreseeable.

 

I'm all for considering Joelinton as a makeshift if it means Willock/Shelvey fucked off and Fraser coming in on the wing.

We need a miracle

Zero fluidity. Out of the teams going down, we look the worst (maybe Burnley) at developing any sort of flow moving forward. No positional awareness at all.

I struggled to see what our tactics are - we just don't seem to play as a team.  It's either lump it forward to Wilson or give it to ASM in the hope he does something.  I struggle to see what he has changed, other than give JL some confidence.

I agree but I'm saying if we ditch VAR like some want then we lose out in that situation 

Fair enough but I still think it's ruined the game.  Takes away far more than it gives - Championships and Relegations are now being decided by some dude in front of a TV screen.

But on the flip side we don't get that penalty against Norwich without VAR getting involved

 

 

But in that case it was the right decision to give it

We have to remember this was a Leicester side low in confidence, missing arguably their best defender - they were there for the taking.  There was no cohesion in our play, barely put any passes together.

It did to the fans Howe ?

If you look at Mourinho, a manager who has won more than Rafa, currently 8th in Serie A and still don't think some of these managers are not what they once were then I am not sure what to say

 

Rafa is a case of what could have been that people are still romantic about. I love the guy but its clear the game now has fresher managers with fresher ideas.

tbf to Rafa he's inherit a squad with many questionable buys and has been given zero cash to make it his own.  The odd player that he has been able to bring in arguably have been their best Gray, Townsend.  The whole squad needs a total re-haul.

The thing is getting rid of VAR doesn't change that decision, the refs given that so we'd still be rightly pissed off

 

Why VAR didn't overturn it is beyond me 

Having VAR though just makes it worse - I can understand ref's being conned in realtime but when they have the ability to watch it in slow motion and still come to the same conclusion it just makes a farce of it all.  

Back down to reality

I wasn't sold on the idea of him getting the job, still ain't.

 

5 games in, I think the only player that has looked better under him is Joelinton. Defensively I could argue we look even worse than before.

 

We're not staying up with this guy at the helm.

 

 

 

My sentiments exactly

We've been absolutely battered by a team low on confidence and who are barely out of first gear. Total rubbish. 

Liverpool next 

Zero marking

TBF though they were gifted the lead by the Ref

We gift so many easy goals, it's a recipe for relegation. I don't know if Howe is the right man to address that issue either.

He was never the right man - it was more the fact that he wanted the job and could talk the talk.

Just now, worthy said:

I feel like our "defenders" dont understand football at all. Truly amazing.

Howe isn't exactly known for having his team defend well.

The ref will be happy now - job done.

So everyone BAR VAR and the ref didn't think it was a pen......hmmmmm Suspicious 

It's why I hate VAR - so inconsistent.  Make the rules up as they go along.
