Not really, not one of them is a player that makes us better. Individually they look good enough but I wasn't too surprised by their performance as a team. It looked very early on that we were seeing the same sort of display as the conference league. Trouble is they don't show the desire to win games and Sheff Utd play it like their cup final. We looked very casual from the start like we thought we were too good for them. We just didn't have the likes of Kane and Romero to pull their level up. We need more players like that who make a difference so when we rest 1 or 2 we still have a few out there. Romero, Bentancur, Kulusevski and Kane are the only ones who on their game lifts the performance of the team. Start with none of them and it's asking for trouble.That 11 out there today should beat Sheff United second 11.
We’ve lost 6 or 7 of those on the bounce, so every cloud and all that…This one will sting for a while, beat a championship team away and then one at home then you’re at Wembley for a fa cup semi final. It was a golden chance
Yeah and Romero at the back with Bentancur. Still much work to be done and far off what Poch was blessed with.Stadium atmosphere for two of our biggest games (atmosphere-wise) was absolutely dire.
Our technical ability is so so low save for Kane and last season Son and last season Deki.
Personally i thought Porro was decent and bailed out Sanchez a number of times. Considering it’s only his second start it’s way way to soon to criticise him. Personally think he will be an excellent player for us whoever is in charge.Maybe he can get more of "his" players, like Porro, Perisic and Richarlison. They were all great tonight.
True. How quickly I’ve forgotten the heady days of Bentancur in the middle.Yeah and Romero at the back with Bentancur. Still much work to be done and far off what Poch was blessed with.
Please explain then why Conte was pretty much the only manager from the entire Premier League to not fully rotate their team during 3rd round of Carabao Cup when we lost against 2nd team of Nottingham Forest.He is willingly following Levy's philosophy focusing on top 4 in stead of winning titles.
Same with Pochettino. They have no desire to win domestic cups or minor UEFA tournaments.
What is left? Champions League and Premier League which we're unlikely to never win.
There won't be any trophies going forward neither.
Let me get that for you
This is fair - he wasn't noticeably bad, but he's put him in twice in two away games next to Sanchez. Seems like a very unfair way to use him.Personally i thought Porro was decent and bailed out Sanchez a number of times. Considering it’s only his second start it’s way way to soon to criticise him. Personally think he will be an excellent player for us whoever is in charge.
And when he gets the chance to play next to Romero, let alone a decent CB, rather than Tanganga and SanchezPersonally i thought Porro was decent and bailed out Sanchez a number of times. Considering it’s only his second start it’s way way to soon to criticise him. Personally think he will be an excellent player for us whoever is in charge.
Probably, however its a prime example of a bias being in play.Holy mother of God, is that fucking real?
Honestly should have brought him on as soon Sanchez randomly fell over with nobody on him. I said he would cost us it was so very clear. For that we do have to criticise the coaches.Why didn’t we play Romero?
Its jarring. It’s one thing to rotate and not select him from the start, but he should’ve been subbed on by half time.Why didn’t we play Romero?
Counting down the days until he & this formation fuck off
Feel sick at the thought of Conte sat at home prioritising trying to get top 4 over a realistic chance of a trophy, get him gone
Not a dig but this obsession with his wages confuses me. Would it be OK if he was on £10M? £5M?I would like Conte to leave because I dislike the football - it’s just dreadful to watch. He’s on £15m and I haven’t seen him improve any player, whilst he is wedded to a single system. We cannot even change it up when chasing a game.
However, this can’t mask the fact the players aren’t good enough. How many cups have we exited with Dier, Davies and Sanchez playing together? Must be in double digits easily.
