Hopefully playing our first game at the new stadium will give the whole club the huge boost it needs for the rest of the season
I’m not going to pretend to be a financial expert, but getting back in the CL with a pretty hefty stadium debt seems an absolute must from a business POV.
Otherwise it’s goodbye Eriksen, Alderweireld, for all the money we can get
The game changed, they did well, took control of it and won. It happens. Heck, the frequency of upsets is probably the key reason as to why football is so popular. It wouldn't be fun if all we had to do was turn up and put in some effort to guarentee three points. If you don't have the lows you can't have the highs.
Right, everybody on their knees and pray that Wolves beat Chelsea and Utd and Arsenal draw tomorrow
2 draws would be fine and really not that surprising.Right, everybody on their knees and pray that Wolves beat Chelsea and Utd and Arsenal draw tomorrow
What the fuck happened? Fairly comfortable at half time. I nod off in the armchair for a quick nap and we've lost 2-1!
I didn't see any of them just strolling around. I saw a Southampton side who changed their game, took advantage of the weaker points in our squad - wide play and crosses - and player their hearts out to turn the game around and give themselves a chance of survival. I just don't think Harry Kane (probably the most driven footballer I've ever seen), Walker-Peters (fighting for his place in the first team), Rose (similar, as well as for his England spot), Dele (just back from injury) etc turned up and thought - I can't be arsed. I don't really want Champions League football, or my bonuses, or a national place. I'm just going to let us lose. It doesn't add up and I didn't see it.

I think whoever we play first game in the new stadium we will win but man we are doing our best to lose top four was lucky not to lose last week as well really poor from the team.Hopefully playing our first game at the new stadium will give the whole club the huge boost it needs for the rest of the season
Would you be happy if this is what Poch was thinking about that game? This is not the mindset that wins game (though I see from your other posts you aren’t that bothered about us winning games, it seems).
Why did you let that ball run Danny, Why....................................?
Probably would have still lost
Why can’t we play like Fergie’s teams did?
They never took their foot off the pedal even when leading by a few goals.
Yes, it would be exactly that. That's what winning teams do.
I would hope he would express his disapproval of the performance to the players, analyse how it could be better, and work with them on that. His ability to do that is why he's manager and we're internet randos.
