Just now, whats happening said:

theres a guy called hudson-odoi. abraham hasnt showed much in the last couple of weeks if not a month for now.

if sarri would manaage the team this way, there would be riots in london tonight calling for his head.

Have you seen Hudson-Odoi recently when he's played? Did you watch his performance today?

And seriously you think dropping Tammy will help things? Giroud and Batshuayi are nowhere near good enough.

The problem Tammy has which he didn't earlier in the season is the players behind him have completely lost form and aren't creating anything.

the squad paid the qualification to last16 in champions league. play without heart today

Get back in time, right after the Sheffield draw. And think from there. Everyone should. We overachieved with the winning run. We have to go back to enjoying football itself and learning as a team. The last month has been an awful period and I don't think any of the player learnt a thing.

We need to sell Willian. On days like this I wish he had gone to Spurs.

[killer1257 3,282]

We really need a world class creative player. We created Zero Chances. I miss Cesc

Asking for Lampard's sack is just as ridiculous as asking for Sarri's sack when you realistically look at who we have at our disposal. 

Like someone else mentioned, we've been fortunate all season on how shit United, Spurs, and Arsenal have been.

Not excusing the recent losses but the funny thing is we exceeded expectations earlier this season - and arguably even raised them - by winning matches, going on that 7-game winning streak etc. Now, we're at the point where most of us had expected us to be in, struggling for performances and results.

[Milan 17,835]

This is similar to last season - after a solid start and some positive football, we just lost the plot and became boring and predictable. Only the solid start and awful opponents' runs gave us the Top 4. That is not going to repeat for sure.

That's it. Gone from such a high to sudden lows. Its not the losses that  bother so much just the way we've lost and how quickly it's all changed. Like our passes. That wasnt that bad now suddenly bam we cant.

What's helped is other sides being poor. To start anyway seeing as Man U are on a roll and Spurs who knows they're a bit over the place.

We were at one point 10 or 12 points above Arse, United, and Spuds just a couple of weeks ago. All 3 may now go above us by Christmas.

And what top player will want to then join a team on the slide in January instead of waiting to see how things pan out until the summer?

Our remaining league fixtures in 2019:

Tottenham (away)

Southampton (home)

Arsenal (away)

 

2 Lost and maybe draw with Southamton ?!?  

[MoroccanBlue 5,194]

Under Mourinho, Conte, Sarri, and now Lampard. We have always struggled against sides that restrict our width. 

Why is that?

We have had a history of starting the season well and then completely falling away from November onward (or a tad later). 2010/11, 2012/13, 2017/18 seasons all come to mind. And this term has been no different either.

Last Season we also had prime Hazard. This Season we have Willian as a starter

mental issue imho 

[Vesper 27,283]

btw

Leicester only drew

today Victimpool basically clinched the title

less than a 3% chance they blow a 10 point lead with 21 games to go, especially as Shiity are now 17 points back (with a game in hand though atm)

Lampard is out of his depth we all know it the job has come to soon for him. I said earlier in the season he needs an experienced number two in such a big job as a novice manager. Lose to the yids next week and Lampard will be in trouble because the way we are playing I can't see any end to this downhill slump. 

Goodwill can only go so far and some of us are near breaking point already other managers have been sacked for less (I'm not advocating Lampard should be sacked) but four out five defeats against teams in terrible form is not acceptable and legend or not you can't overlook how shit we've been and the buck stops with him.

We moved the ball way to slowly. Our passing was woeful. Defenders hoofing long balls across the pitch way too often. Aspi was rubbish today. We really only had one real effort (Emerson header) on goal, oh and a long range from Kovacic. And I've said this before that Mason Mount is way too light weight for this type of game and is scared to get stuck in. Taking off Pulisic was a mistake. He should have taken Mount off, pushed Pulisic into the centre and just brought CHO onto the wing will Willian on the opposite side. Bats never got a smell when he came on.We are just inept at breaking down a well organised 4 4 2. But look, our position in the table is a false one. We are not top 4 material. Top 8 maybe, but not top 4.
