  1. I am sorry they are bottlers plain and simple. It was there to be taken but they didn't have it in them at all. I thought the J. Pedro incident was a pen but other than that, we were just playing a teasing game of almost being dangerous without actually being dangerous. Wonderful goal from City and deserved winners, overall no complaints from me. Happy that it was only 1-0 and we didn't embarrass ourselves. Much change needed next year.
  2. Lack of quality / confidence, we are the new bottlers of the PL, amazing how we've almost fully become the Arsenal of 10 years ago, while they've almost fully become the Chelsea of 10 years ago.
  3. Checked and cleared... in real time didn't look a pen to me but not seen a replay
  4. No real surprise for me, the team with a wide variety of consistent, clinical and calm goal scorers scores against team without a single one. Hopefully we can find a way to sneak one, but it has never really looked that likely unless we can win a pen.
  5. Trafford looks nervy af but we're putting him under no pressure
  6. An obvious pen, guy on the bbc saying its shoulder to shoulder, who are these idiots? It doesn't matter if you're shoulder to shoulder if you wipe a player out using your legs and without getting the ball. Its a clear foul that any unbiased person can see immediately. Otherwise its literally impossible to play football and we'll just spend 90 minutes kicking the shit out of each others shins.
  7. Yes in some ways true. Thursday night football is also the worst possible schedule and Europa is just about hard enough that we can't send out a literal B team all the time either. That said I imagine most managers (of the calibre we're targeting) also want a shot at winning a Europa league and would fancy themselves favourite to win it with us if we get in which could be a nice pull too (plus it is a very convenient backdoor to CL if you bottle the league)
  8. Villas Boas was hot for a minute as well, including going undefeated in the league and winning a treble. He was fucking shit though and Xabi might be as well. But I'm happy to give it a go. I'd rather hang my hat on someone who's done a bit more over more seasons (e.g. Emery) but we are where we are. I have no idea what happened with him & Real as don't follow it but on blind faith willing to assume mad house situation that wasn't his fault.
  9. Can't cope with another summer of a manager telling us they need time to look at the players and that Rob Sanchez is a great goalie, that we have an excellent squad that should be fighting for all major honours, that they will need time to get their ideas across but that if we're patient the team will stop leaking easy goals and going on endless losing runs. Just give me a straight talking manager that will be clear about what he needs to deliver immediately, give him that, and then hold him accountable if he fails to have us comfortably top 4.
  10. That's what they've been saying since Potter. Same old shit. They've all got to go, had their chance and blown it (repeatedly). I don't mind giving a guy that has fucked up a second chance, but when they've bottled their 2nd, 3rd and 4th chance you've gone way past the moment where it is beyond question they should be moved on and we are easily there with the sporting directors now.
  11. A big pivot into sacking the sporting directors and giving someone like Emery a bunch of control is exactly the kind of change we need if we are going to progress. Never happen tho. That kind of move would indeed be the kind of thing that could get me excited again, but it’s just not going to happen.
  12. Can't even think of a manager that would excite me. The project is dead. We need new owners and new sporting directors to see any real change. Calum may as well run things until then for all the difference it will make.
  13. How have the directors not been sacked? They appointed him.
  14. I am watching at this point purely because of the relevancy for FPL
  15. Has there ever been money wasted in football in quite the way it has been wasted at Chelsea under Blueco? Can't imagine anyone else has fully blown a war chest like this.
