We said the same thing about Rudiger and Christensen in 2020 and people throwing the idea of selling Kante and Kovacic because they were pointless under Lampard.

He's going to be 22 next month with hardly any first team appearances nor any youth international appearances.

Did we watch the same final? Last 10-15 minutes before the full time whistle during regular time, we were all over Liverpool. Momentum was heavily on our side and 99% of the world were suggesting we'd win it in extra time if we kept pushing. We didn't. Liverpool 'smelled blood', because Poch allowed them to. He then had the gull to say the players were tired (yet we only have 1 game a week) and implied he wanted to play for penalties because, in vintage Poch fashion, he shat the bed when he needed to be assertive. This isn't just a one off scenario either. Poch's game management is among the worst in the league. We are 18th as far as league table goes in minute 45-90. You will never convince me that we have players worse than the likes of Wolves, West Ham, Villa, and Brighton. Never. Poch can keep banging on about the underlying numbers are in his favour, how we ‘should’ be higher in the table but part of your job as a manager is extracting performance in all areas so you can only bemoan poor finishing for so long before you have to start looking at your training methods/man management. And it is a results business at the end of the day. 39% win rate just isn’t good enough. No where near.

They genuinely had the chance to win their first trophy together before Poch decided to play counter attacking football in extra time against a depleted Liverpool team with three 18-20 year olds on the pitch straight from the academy. He's a reactive dinosaur and the premier league has past him by. I'd be fuming too if I were asked to sit back and play for pens.

On course to have our worst defensive season in the Premier League era. Just need to concede 8 more goals, which is incredibly likely we will.

He'd be a Musiala type player imo. Think he and Lavia would've helped us tremendously if fit.

Alonso staying at Bayer. Amorim the favorite to replace Klopp at Liverpool.

I'm assuming you are referring to the cultural differences for south Americans and the term "negrito"?

The playing the victim I agree was bad taste, but my point still stands. I find his statements bemusing when he goes about how he does on the pitch. Holds no bounds him, even instigating fights with 16-17 year olds. I find JT a despicable human being. I hated Costa's antics when he should've just focused on his football.

Cool. I still think he's a bellend. 🤷‍♂️ I find him a detestable footballer with his actions on the pitch and is one of the most instigating footballers on the planet. The whole "all i want to do is play football" whilst acting like like a complete dickhead 90% of time trying to invoke a fight with every player that walks past him, is in my humble opinion, bollocks worthy.

Think in the big games it should be that midfield 3, but against the majority of clubs id want a CAM.

Ricky Lambert speaking against Poch when he was managing at Southampton. All they did was run full intensity on training days after a match.

Yet another person speaking out against Poch’s training methods. You have to think this has something to do with the injuries we are seeing. https://x.com/cfcdaily/status/1772996985538191522?s=46&t=IADWMMDWtMYMPFeimX1NoQ

I don't condone racisim in the slightest but this whole victim mentality and his "all I want to do is play football" is bollocks when he is arguably the biggest instigator and shitehouse in world football.

Wish there was someone that did an investigation for all these injuries. PL Games started this season. Reece James - 5 Lesly Ugochukwu - 3 Christopher Nkunku - 2 Carney Chukwuemeka - 2 Romeo Lavia - 0 Wesley Fofana - 0

Out for the season.

Fofana ideally would need another PL loan. If he continues this trajectory, I can see him being a part of the squad with Paez in 2025.

Fabrizio Roman may have revealed our cards stating he knows nothing about Chelsea stalling over new deal with regards to Gallagher's wage demands. All he knows is that Chelsea need to sell him for PSR.

Makes no sense. From watching all of our CBs, its obvious Disasi, Colwill, and Badiashile need someone imposing next to them.

You and I both haven't seen nearly enough of him to make that conclusion.

Lesly has 2 full seasons of Ligue 1. Why would we send him on loan over Santos?

It's Enzo I am worried about. Not Caicedo. Having only 1 good game in 5 under Poch.

Oh without a doubt. He's being groomed at Girona to replace Pep.

Same with Silva.

I've seen better defending in the MLS compared to the Dutch league.
