Not sure what Amorim can do. This is on the players. Playing scared again.Watching the Brighton game during the break and they’re going to tear us apart on Sunday too. What a time to be alive.Well…..that was absolutely fecking dreadful.
Get Maguire on to start showing them how to actually put in a shit, and - I can’t actually believe I’m saying that. But, here we are.
I almost bitAntony !The players are just bad. Simple as that.
Look at how they receive the ball, how often their second touch is chasing the ball rather than comfortable possession. They are just sloppy technically poor players.
The worst team is Premier League history looks far more comfortable on the ball. It isn't a fluke.What are we actually doing?
Slow build up again, not taking any initiative.
Classic for us - TNT commentator "Southampton haven't score from a corner yet this season...."Shocking first half, we should have had a penalty but other than that our attavkers have been a joke and our defenders havent been much better.
Southampton have been the better side by a wide margin and if not for Onana they would be 3 up at least.
Zirkzee won't give us control in midfield.
True. That would be mad.
Meh. There’s nobody available anyway.
He should be finding solutions on how to improve our game play and making us more efficient in attack. Can see us conceding again straight after halve time as we will be going all out attackWhat a shitshow. When I talk about our squad being bottom tier in the PL, this is what I mean. Lack of pace in the backline, Mainoo getting nowhere near their midfielders, Garnacho can't hit a barn door, Hojlund can't hold up a ball to save his life and Mazraoui being crap in general-it's all too much. Too many weaknesses for one team to carry.
And now that luck has abandoned us and given them the lead, it'll be even tougher to break them down. If Garnacho had scored, this game would be over already. But nope, we can never score the first chance, can we? FFS.
Onana has made some good saves, Ugarte is the only one who can win a ball and Bruno is the only one with any idea in attack. I doubt it will be enough to turn it around. I'd sub Mainoo and Hojlund for Collyer and Zirkzee right now and hope they fare better.
You seem to think of relegation as just respawning in a game.Antony is coming onAll of this talk of relegation: the players don't give a shit. They're expensive and every single one of them would be sold in that eventuality. Relegation hurts the club and it hurts the fans more. The players are the last to care.Mainoo offers nothing in midfield. Another overrated English player as usual. Hype, bla3.ETH didn’t leave us in 15th.What's Maz Role today?
He has been behind our back three for a lot of the game.Anyone got big Sam's number, call him up were in a relegation battle.
What next?Martinez lack of height and pace completely exposed, has to be among the worst halves for a CB this season.There’s no athleticism or explosiveness, it’s like we have a team full of mid 30 year olds.
Maz comes inside a lot when he plays on the right too. It’s a weird tendency he has, doesn’t stretch the field and doesn’t make wide runs.
But today is different. Everyone is walking. I assume the Arsenal game has something to do with it.poor feckers who bought a ticket and went to the gameWe are set up cowardly. We’re not pressing as a team, but seem content to sit deep at home against Southampton. And when we have the ball, we either pass it around the back line or hoof it aimlessly at a poor striker. Bizarre tactics. Very disappointing from Amorim.
Yeah I'm not convinced they're ever coming back to be honest
Rookie coach? What are you on about? He’s not a rookie. Also, no other coach is going to get anymore of a tune out of this team because it’s the players.also Garnachos movement when Mainoo put the ball across the box was fecking embarrassing
Yup. Our players are a bunch of fecking tools downing mercenaries.
I think he'd just pick 5 defenders across like he has been and have the team sit back even more. Try to scratch out results that way.We’ve not improved even a tiny bit in these types of games. It’s beyond worrying how crap this attack is when it needs to be on the front foot and go at times who want to sit back.feck sake, be braver.
It would be our end. We're not a team like Southampton or Sheffield that can go up and down, we'd be financially dead
Hojlund needs to come of first. Absolutely useless player.
He tried his best though bless him
Me neither. Not for another 20 to 30 years at least.Zirkzee at half time please.
Technically they didn’t we did
