Yes, all the criticism in this thread is valid, BUT Gary Cahill played a pass with his arse, so it's all good!

Actually that was same for Luis last season. When I said that that is the main reason why he doesn't shift Azpi to the right and play Luis last year people didn't take me seriously. But that IS how Jose genuinely thinks. No matter how silly it seems.

:blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf:

I'm genuinely surprised by how some don't seem to realize how bad the situation really is. This is by far worse than any of the 'bad runs' by any of our previous managers. It's our worst start to a season in 35 years! That's not just some statistic. Think about it for a second! I have never seen any a top team start a season this badly. Closest to it maybe Tottenham or Liverpool under Hodgeson. We are in genuine trouble here. Even if we magically regain our form and start wining matches which there has been zero signs for, it would still be till at least December or January till we even start competing for top 4 again. If we continue with this current terrible form for another month or so it would probably be too late to get 4th place even if we regain top form afterwards. Hence why the couple of weeks after the international break are crucial, imo.

Definitely improves us. If we still had him...we'd probably be in 13th!

The question about Jose's future with the club is not that of sentiment or loyalty. It's a single question: Do you believe he can get us to beat all of Liverpool, Tottenham, Everton, Southampton...etc. to fourth place? That is really all that matters in the league right now. Because not making the UCL would be a disaster for a club like us.

I don't think "Pass" is an option really when a journo is asking him a question

What do people expect Terry to say? Does anyone really think he's gonna come out and say "Yeah, he's completely lost the dressing room, and it's obvious he can't get us out of this mess. The earlier he leaves the better." His words to the press mean very little about what the mood is in the dressing room.

Problem is, that works with the assumption that he can. Nothing in the past 9 months indicates that and it's becoming more and more unlikely with each passing match.

Yes, but mainly because she looks like Susan Boyle in this universe...

Said he can't pass a ball. Also said he's one of the players who are really in trouble. Reporter also said that during the time he was on Jose was screaming at him on several occasions.

I think probably for the first time in his career he's failed. We've on the decline for 9 months and he's failed to come up with an answer.

Still blaming the ref and 'some' players who he won't name except for Matic who apparently "can't pass a ball". He's done here.

Can't see how anyone can have an argument anymore. It's very clear that he needs to go. It's not knee-jerk reaction. He obviously has nothing more to offer the team.

I wasn't praising him per say. Again, I didn't say he was good or effective. I said he put in the effort. 'Effort' doesn't take football skills. I don't know how else you can define it as it literally means to work hard. HOW do you cover 11.4 K m while being lazy? Literally to cover 11.4Km during 90 minutes means his average speed was 2.11 meters per second; that's without taking into consideration the time he is not running during the match. And you're seriously suggesting that he covered all that just by jogging??!!! And not just suggesting, but declaring in any incredibly shitty condescending and provocative attitude. But I guess after all ignorance is a prerequisite for such condescension.

Oh, he was!

Did you even read the post you originally quoted? I was talking about mobility because that is what I think was our biggest issue against Porto: And you can't someone didn't put in the effort when he covered the most distance regardless of tackles and passes. I didn't say he was fantastic, I didn't say he was effective. I said he put in the effort and the most effort any player can make is through constant running and covering of distance.

Seems pretty obvious, doesn't it? Doesn't make him a sexist in my book, just makes that one statement he said sexist.

That's a stupid way to put it, especially that I was talking in particular about MOBILITY.

That made me laugh for some reason!

I love how everyone who was already bombing Syria without permission from anyone, even from the UN, and some actually against the wish of their own people and votes of parliament are all now upset how Russia didn't take their permission to bomb Syria It never ceases to amaze me how some countries see nothing wrong with acting like they fucking own the world.

I know it's not just Asmir but I've heard on a couple of occasions managers saying that is ultimately the keeper's call. For example, Petr always had 2 players on the posts why Thibaut didn't have any even at Atletico.

WTH! How does that even work? Does the one in the middle go in the opposite direction to the others? Who the hell approved that!

Btw, Cuadrado yesterday was a combination of Messi and prime f***ing Maradona! Absolutely destroyed Seville. Where the hell did all that go when he was here I'll never understand... Kevin to have the same issues he had here? I still maintain to this day that the main reason it did not work our for him here is because he was never given a proper chance through the middle.
