Odear

Perez is anonymous. Really want to see Mitro and Joselu as a pairing.

Joselu looks better

Well said Dave.

Good stuff. I've some sort of respect for the lad, he's stolen a living as a professional footballer and made more money in a week than some of us will in a year. The mind boggles, it really does

Stefano Sturaro linked. Exactly what we need so it's probably bollocks

We've reverted to the mentality of a club in free fall. The start of last season was poor but there wasn't a bad atmosphere around the club, we knew it was a matter of time before the new signings would click. Not the case this year..

Stop, just stop. Isn't he doing a parody? Surely? No! We're shite and everything is terrible! Rafa out, Beardsley in. And free pies for everyone.

Stop, just stop. You're right, everything is fine.

Who's saying the players hate Rafa? We've got pretty the bunch of players as last season.. except we are much worse this year. A shambles at the back. So what is it? Is the manager not coaching or motivating them? Unlikely. Has all the negativity written in the press gotten to them? Probable.. So who's reposnsible for sorting all of this out?

You on the f***ing wind up mate? A wind up, yes that's what it is.

Aye this is the first time I've honestly thought the end is near.. it doesn't matter who you are as a manager, when the players stop making an effort that's the beginning of the end. I've seen nothing from our players this season so far (the ones that have been here at least a year I mean) to suggest that they are giving their all for this manager or club.

This is poor stuff. Even from Rafa too. We're worse than we were last season. How has that happened?

Spot on. He broke up a few moves in midfield but I suspect the deep midfield role is not his best.. he looked great when picking the ball up and running with it further up the pitch. I think he has a place in this team but it's going to be at the expense of Richie, Atsu or Ayoze.

learning process? f***ing bullshit. Anyone in the first team squad who needs to learn shouldn't be there. Ridiculous comment as per. Surely we should have learned last season how to beat championship teams away from home. We haven't improved, they have. They're much less of a championship team than we are at the moment. The Aldi Klopp must know what he's doing then. They've improved by spending money on new players, if it wasn't already obvious from what I said. Weve only spent £10m less and they had more work to do. Only £10m Disagree about them needing to buy more as well. I'd have replaced everyone bar Ritchie, Shelvey, and Gayle and even then they wouldn't have been guaranteed starts. If you were a Huddersfield town fan you'd be asking for the whole team to be replaced, or did they have a better squad than ours last year? Huddersfield are still s*** as well despite their opening two wins. Let's see where they are by Christmas. 30 odd points is probably enough to be safe so they're well set.

Perhaps with the shit squad that we have, doing a Stoke and having two big lumps up front is the thing to do.

If your billions are all tied up in shares, take a fucking loan out you fucking twat. Wake the fuck up and watch what is happening.

Aye, if we had spent like we should have, the moral it brings is so good for the team. Does that fat idiot think, holding back the money and trying to justify it through a interview of bullshit helps the team in any way. 100% Think the media have played their part too.. they've been far too eager to make negative headlines. It's meant the season has started on a bummer. With the manager being asked negative questions.. total focus on the players we haven't signed.. instead of the strengths of the ones that got us here. You'd like to think that players have the mental wherewithal to not pay attention to this.. but we all know they do. Again this is all at Mike Ashley's door. He's let the press do this by not fully backing Rafa. This needs to change very quickly or we'll sleepwalk into December with fuck all to show for it.

Total shit today. Huddersfield were there for the taking and any sort of decent team would have gotten something from this. We started badly last season too so not gonna have a meltdown. DM is the biggest problem. We can't keep any sort of possession there so our play consists of playing out to the wings straight from defence. It's just a general lack of quality. Pretty much hit and hope any forwards can pick up on scraps. To be honest I'm surprised at Rafa, if anything the team should be well organised, we are not.

Joselu is a glory hunting cunt

And West Ham about to sign William Carvalho.... West Ham....

Diame needs to be sent to donkey heaven

Merino going forward is great. Hayden has been shite. We've gotta give Murphy a chance, why bother spending 12m on a bench warmer???

Richie almost always checks back before crossing so makes no sense to have him on the left.

The man is such a class act.

Intelligence is not something you associate footballers with.
