Agree pretty much with @Bus-Conductor and his summary, although wouldn't even be as kind to Capoue as he was, he was also garbage, and as the lesser of two evils I would have taken him off instead of Dembele.
The only positive I can bring from the game is that Poch was genuinely angry with the players, there wasn't any bullshit, I hope...HOPE, this means we will at least see some sort of reaction from all concerned, but at least he wasn't hiding behind any long winded jargon to excuse our poor performance. For what it's worth, I've never been a big fan of changing 11 players for games, especially when the regime is so new. The players can't be tired, it's not like they've run themselves into the ground recently. I want a strong team against Forest, get a win then pick another strong team for the Emirates.
And wear a suit Poch, start looking the business, there's a good lad.
I think so too. People go on about Dembele being slow on the ball but at the same time rave about Capoue. Dont get that. I like Capoue, but he is quite one paced and does dawdle on the ball too and technically Dembele's a better footballer for me. The Liverpool game he was slower with and without the ball than i've ever seen Dembele and again on the weekend I don't think there was much to choose between them.
