Confidence or no confidence it's pretty inexcusable. If he can't muster up enough confidence to take advantage of even situations like that he shouldn't be anywhere near the pitch.

Lloris starting tonite makes me think Vorm is playing sunday :(

Soldado is trying so hard i want it to work for him! All the players know how good a finnisher he is! I want it to work with him. But i fear its just not going to happen :(

Lloris has probably burnt 30 calories. Think he is good.

Why didnt Poch take Soldado off? Guy's done here. Just not gona happen for him. We need to get through this tie. Should have brought on Kane at half.

I wish people would stop quoting £26m and £30m we apparently paid for Soldado. That's bollocks. And you're apparently Spurs fans? £26m 'might' be the final figure if he hits the agreed targets but he's never going to get close to them.

To put it in context Soldado cost £2m more than Fulham paid Leeds for Ross McCormack....

And btw, I don't recall anyone complaining about buying him or the fee when did.

If Bobby had thought about it he would have scored, with Chadli running left the goalie had started to commit himself, Bobby should have taken a step to his right and he would have had an empty goal.

Classic mark of a player without confidence. Fear impedes ingenuity, and you're mentally hung up on making the safe and "right choice."

Plus the glee with which some people are goading anyone who gives the bloke a bit of support. Oh and the hilarious puns on his name. Top notch.

From the guy who invented the acronym 'BSoDL'.

No you're right, better not make light of his ineptitude. He might read this later and cry.

Not unusual for a manager to show some sympathy and give him a "you've got 10-15 minutes to prove your worth" message at HT.

Plus, if he misses you're allowed to add a few million to his transfer fee.

Soldado's movement in the box on crosses is the complete opposite of what i was expecting when we got him.

McCormack cost £11m, right? I know £26m was a total including add-ons, but £13m still doesn't seem quite right.
