They look proper half arsed tonight. Get fucking Tino on for a bit of pace.

Look sluggish tonight. 
 

first and second ball seems to be a problem.

Sense an AG masterclass coming today. All the momentum in the world behind him. Let’s fuckin go. 

That post game interview then. What a great personality. Really well spoken and engaging, very humble too. 
 

We’ve got such a gem here. Everton must rue the day they hounded this lad out.

Off he pops to pastures new now. Thanks for your service and all that but that was fucking stupidity tonight.

Not just given away a stupid penalty but probably seriously knocked the momentum out of us as well. Stupid cunt. Ciaran Clarke the cunt and banish him for all eternity now.

Fuckin hell Dummett you dumb cunt

Already mentally on the beach these cunts. Shambolic. Turning it off.

Yeah, not so much fun this when we’re playing against the refs, the league and the entire fuckin footballing system. They looked at every which way to try and not give us a that penalty and then the ref doesn’t stop the game for a head injury and let’s then take a quick free kick knowing we weren’t ready. Fuckin cunts. 

If Eddie thinks he’s one of the core group then move him to center half ffs. The lad isn’t a left back/wing back whilst he’s got a hole in his arse. 

Pardon us for voicing frustration for going backwards.

Dan Burn - leave now and never come back.

This is pretty much where I am. Ultimately the other clubs are also pushing to increase revenue which is why during the Ashley years the a chasm opened between us and the big 6. So in order to progress we have to close the gap which is difficult because we are limited by FFP. We are not allowed to invest into the business because of the rules    I know it’s repeated a lot but I truly can’t get over this. 
 

So basically we are left hoping for miracles, or we have to become the best traders in football to open up headroom, so when we sell a Bruno we need to find two more. 

This is really bang on the money. Also don’t forget that when a club does start making headway in unearthing gems and getting a bit of a momentum going on a player production conveyer belt - the top 6 circle around like vultures and start picking up the back room staff responsible, plucking them root and stem from said club and transferring them over to their own. So then the process has to start all over again. It’s absolutely fucking minging.

Forcing clubs to take in less revenue to make them more sustainable. Ya couldn’t fuckin make it up. Not even trying to hide it. Legal challenge now please and lay bare all that spicy spicy evidence that never saw the light of day in the CAT case.

We don’t need a striker imo.  We just need a fit Isak. 

I think we all know that’s a big ask.

Think we just need 2 or 3 players at the right level.

 

 

RW, LB, CB.

I agree with other sentiments that we probably need a striker and CM to add to that list as well. That’s 5 players. That’s at least two more summer windows imo to get the right players in and that’s fighting against FFP ans whatever other new rule the league want to try and hamstring us with. We’re still a way off from competing consistently. 

Pizza Rob is making noises on twitter inferring he’s signed the contract. Good news if true.

Even the commentators jumping on the fact that nothing has changed for us. 
 

I’m really starting to think that Howe is just a Southgate clone. Too conservative, not reactionary enough, guilty of sticking with underperforming favourites. Starting to run out of patience with him.

Here we fuckin go - Isak is dead for another month now.

Well that was fucking shite. Nothing else to say really.

Oh fuck off with that Trippier. 

Bruno’s touch and passing has been awful so far.

Ornsteins reporting he’s been placed on gardening leave. For 2 years😂

For me, he’s earned a bit of leeway this year. Last year was immense but this year there’s definitely some legitimate questions about his selection policy and in game management. We don’t see the inner goings on on the training pitch but we do see what happens on a Saturday - and it’s happening time and time and time again. I love Eddie but I can’t shake the feeling that there’s something of “Southgate” about him where he picks his mates and is far too slow or afraid to change things when it’s clearly not working.

Summer will be interesting, we obviously need a striker, a proper left back and a backup center half. If he gets them then there’s zero excuses to persevere with the same mediocre players - Burn and Almiron being chief suspects. I hope it clicks for him and he proves mine and others doubts to be false but I’m slightly worried, not gunna lie.

Let em have it for me. Any club that still wants this after the fan protest is just putting its head above the parapet.
