I’m sorry.....but this isn’t a team that looks motivated or if it’s enjoying the tactics that they are being asked to play.

0 creativity.

3 players upfront that are all getting in each other’s way.

Two midfielders that can’t pass fordwards

Lamela again taking way too many touches. Winks slowing down the game as well. And then we persist going through the middle time and time again while there just isn't any space. A painful watch.

No movement from front 4 + no ability to pass from our 2mid players. League 2 team can defend against this.

Put Lo Celso or Eriksen on,and speet up the ball. Basically same issueas against Villa.

Actually hate our football under Poch these days, we keep advancing the ball all the way up to the middle of their half but it’s still the same 5 players on the ball. There’s no room because we’ve got all 10 players in the same 25 square yards

Rarely enjoy watching our football anymore.

Wish we'd actually start the game at 16:30 and not twenty minutes in after passing side to side the whole time. Then defend awfully and be chasing the game, yet wasted a quarter of it. So shit.

Poch is a hero but he's being a prick right now

I really do not want to see Sissoko again. He literally is useless against these teams and we need a true DM against better sides. He’s a utility sub. Nothing more. Get Dier on.
Unfortunately because the side regressed so much last year he looked a world beater. But you are correct. He isn't offering anything at home to a dogshit team. You need technical players on the pitch.

Lol Folks just can't say we're playing bad, or this player isn't having a good game.

Suddenly he's shit, he's not good enough etc

Sorry but I don’t know what people see in Sanchez. He’s just an expensive Younes Kaboul.

I think people have feared this for a while but have been too afraid to say it, mainly due to his expensive price tag.

Hope to god he proves me wrong but I can't see him ever reaching the level of Jan or Toby

Vertonghen for Rose
Lo Celso for Winks
Eriksen for Lamela

If we’re insisting on attacking down the left then we needs Verts crossing ability as Rose is inept going forward.

Winks has zero penetration and Lamela has been shite.

Sissoko just has no place in games like these. His first touch in close is dreadful, and he doesn't offer an option to keep progressing the ball positively. There was a time that KWP had the ball wide and looked inside and Sissoko was just standing there, not giving him an option, and then another when he ran outside him and into the space KWP was moving, again leaving no option centrally. He just slows everything down and makes it hard for the forward players when there's no consistent quality coming between the lines.

What a shit first half.
Poch leaves Eriksen and Jan on the bench.
Sanchex fucks up..again.
Our tactics is to try and tread the ball through 10 man defense.
Created two chances. The penalty(?) situation and the lucas chance.

This doesnt look good at all.

Just come home and fortunately, the first half hasn’t recorded so I don’t have to watch it. Losing 1-0 to Newcastle...nothing good must of happened.

There is something wrong at our club. Has been for some time. The style has gone, the passion has gone.

Big half coming up.
