Deuce

What would you have done differently? Tiote came on for our worst player and we went 3 at the back for the last 10 minutes.

Don't get it either.... none of their chances came down his side and he was never beaten 1 v 1.... he did zero wrong. All the goals came from Debuchy being utterly inept and letting the rest of his team down. I don't usually blame individuals but today its clear as f*cking day that Debuchy is to blame for this defeat. No, he's clearly fucking not the only player at blame today. Graham, up against Colo and MYM, should've scored two, we let Hull run right through central midfield all day, and none of our attacking players save Remy did anything of note.

We also need to consider that Hull played alright today. Brady and Aluko are fairly good players and they've got a decent midfield with Huddlestone and Livermore. They defended well and played hard for 90 minutes.

Not really sure how Pardew gets much blame for today's performance. He started our strongest XI, brought on two attacking players, and went 3 at the back for the last 10 minutes. That's the kind of intent we've been clamoring for for a year.

That's fair.

A slow bleed might've seen Di Canio stick around a bit longer. Now that they're the worst team by far in the league, he *should* be out the door relatively soon.

IMO, this is a one-off poor performance from what is undoubtedly our strongest XI (Gouff for Cisse the only question mark). What we don't want to do is overreact and blow-up the XI by re-introducing Tiote, Taylor, or Jonas.

Wouldn't put it past them to kill the guy. Wouldn't blame them either. Miserable shithead and awful manager.

He should've had at least one, maybe two.

Seriously i don't think the rest were that bad.... but Debuchy was f*cking horrific. He's the main reason we lost today and i'm in a vile mood, thanks a lot you french t***. MYM and Colo were terrible too. I really don't think they were..... neither were to blame for any of the goals.... there were all Debuchy's fault.... the first two were due to his awful positioning and they both should have been picked up by him and even the third he was awful for and the midfield not picking up Aluko if he wasn't playing we win today IMO. I honestly couldn't blame Colo or MYM for any of the goals. They were terrible.

Aye, he's mental like. What was it?

Seriously i don't think the rest were that bad.... but Debuchy was f*cking horrific. He's the main reason we lost today and i'm in a vile mood, thanks a lot you french twat. MYM and Colo were terrible too.

Criminal that we weren't in for Lukaku.

It's so Makes watching a loss bearable.

7 points from Sturridge, MYM, Coleman, Sakho, and McGregor. With Boruc and Barkley (7 points each) on the bench.

Who cares? Me. I have money on them winning. Brave choice. Real wildcard decision.

Who cares?

Good call earlier on that switch, Ikon.

We're really lucky that Graham is utter dogshit.

Fucking hell, son. We deserve to lose this one. Terrible performance by everyone on the pitch bar Remy.

I might have negative points after this first round of matches.

Cabaye's set piece deliveries remain terrible.

I expect to see Tiote introduced in the next 15-20 minutes.

All of them.

Dipshit defending today.
