Unfortunately 1 point out 9 is a poor return, looks like we have gone flat a bit, people getting too excited about being in a title challenge of which we are not.
Still we have done better than expected so can't complain too much, just hope the team can pick themselves up and go again.

I mentioned in the Bale thread but imo we start him as much as we can over Christmas, if after the next 3/4/5 games he still plays like this then yes, I think we need to move on.

Hmm, there was another club tried that, turns out not to be as simple as it sounds...

Bring back Tom Huddlestone. at least he would test the keeper.

Loved the man.

Focus on League Cup. About our only chance of silverware.

Where is all the celebration gone of our beloved manager and team who were riding high at the top? Come on don’t be fickle you Mourinho fanboys and girls. Get behind your man ‘cos he’s a winner and will bring us glory. 10 goals in our last 9 league games show we can win every match; it’s just those dumb players not playing to the script by keeping clean sheets. Jose is the man to take us back to the great heights of Ramos and Graham when we were winners.

Think our bench was very unbalanced. No need for Moura, Bergwijn and Bale. Alli would have given us another option, particularly when he started Lo Celso and Ndombele

And why is the Transfer Rumour thread still deathly quiet?

I'm definitely still backing him. Find it weird that you're revelling this much in us losing a game. Very odd behaviour.

Man we shat the bed not buying Bruno Fernandes.

how do you get by every day?

And I didn't even notice that a win for Southampton at Fulham on Boxing day and we could be looking at 10th place if Villa win 2 of their 3 games in hand

If city win the game in hand we go sixth, how is it possible to go from 2nd to 6th

Phil-spur99 · Dec 20, 2020

Definitely still a lot of work to do on the squad. I’d be happy to move Winks, Serge, Sissoko, Bale, Moura on, and that’s not just based on today as the list would be longer.

I’d have like to see Ali on the bench and don’t see why he wasn’t as he did on when he came on at Anfield and we need to build his confidence back up. He could have come on for GLC today. I find Moura too frustrating. Also worrying that if Harry or Son don’t score we don’t have too many goals from elsewhere in the team.

I disagree slightly, the problem is the number 8 position, we have no one linking the play

Yet we have two eights in the team ...

Because up until the Liverpool game it was as tight as a nuns knickers between the 4/5 teams at the top

1st to 6th actually.

But if you've been following my festive analysis even 1st to 10th is possible by the time we play Leeds 2nd January

And hadn't you answered that question already? Because he has no capable midfielder hence the choice of putting 6 players across the box. That's the result of limited players.

The only limited midfielder we had out there was Sissoko. He would have done the same if he had prime Scholes and Modric, and it would have failed then too.

He‘s a gooner. Stick him on ignore.

I dont think its about mentality as such. Its tactical.

We ONLY try and play football if we go behind.

We defend and counter and when the counter doesn't work or the attacking players are off form then our game is up.

Its fucking woeful to watch

The issue i have is Jose SAID he's adapted.

He just hasn't and there's no evidence to suggest otherwise. Yes we've had some good performances this season. But there's also been some games where we've flattered to decieve and games like today, Everton and Palace where we've just been plan shit.

Fine of the footballs ok but its not

He still has his moments but getting the first goal is vital the way we are playing atm

Jose has his moment if we win.
