Does anyone else believe that the team is just tired due to lack of rotation?.. Like everyone has been looking very lethargic in recent weeks and due to this our results have suffered.. Jose needs to change things up in the next few league games play a few youngsters rest some of the stars give them a weekend off.. I feel the game accumulation is getting to us.. and I know a lot will say they are professionals and should be able to deal with the demands but our style of play will lead to extreme fatigue at the end of every season if we continue to play the high pressing game.. Even in recent weeks we haven't pressed as much as we did at the beginning of the season when we were very successful probably say since the newcastle game our pressing has been very hit and miss.. Here's to some fringe players playing against Hull and getting a result

The fake shot on the first goal completely fooled the keeper .. what a classy striker hope he gets a shot next season

Which has kinda happened no? I dunno the kid has class and if we can through a CB in our midfield and get overrun I'm sure by him in it wouldn't change the way this game was played

I thought I was the only one seeing this

That's on Jose cause Zouma has been a passenger this game Fabregas has been playing in there by himself our back four hold the ball longer when he presents himself as a passing option that's no good

Actually it does not but he's not the scapegoat for our performance today but hey its the cool thing to do so have a go

I think Zouma in midfield is hurting us.. He's good in the air but can't play with the ball at his feet for a CM we should have played RLC in the middle has the potential to influence a game

How are you really blaming Oscar for our failure to convert chances come off it

Take him off before someone kills him..

No shield in front of back four to be honest

anyone with MOTD commentary on the game?

tidy finish by him as well ... Happy for Thorgan

Man of the match Willian with Cech second

How sweet was it that Naismith got the deflection haha

good shout! hes back with the team now

Good shout ivanovic ball watching

Good shout

It's fine bench the player you are right Skipper he's a shit player

two of hazards giveaways have lead to Villa counters had Villa not been as dire as us a better team would have made us pay.. Give me a break.. Oscar's plays safe passes he gets slated for not making the Hollywood ball he tries to play that kinda pass he's getting slated for poor passing his strength and vision set up the goal or does that not count at all because he didn't finish the play like our best player did... He buy your koke and your pogba and see if they don't misplace passes too.. You guys need to get a grip

Is everyone ignoring Hazards giveaways because he scored.. Is that what it will take for everyone to get off Oscar's back.. I don't get it with some people here

Too many careless giveaways.. And playing with drugs today feels like playing a man down.. If the ball is hit straight at him he's OK anything else been poor even making simple passes from him.. Would like to see Remy

Different clubs have different rules on squad numbers that is simple I was explaining the difference in Serie A and PL if you can't see that then you really are just a wind up merchant

What tweet I can't find it lol

With squad numbers in Serie A in particular due to squad sizes players are numbered 1 to like 200 with first team members getting numbers 1-99 .. it has nothing to do with diva behaviours its just the nature of the league if you are assigned a number in academy it only can change if you request it and number becomes available but most times players become attached to that number so decide not to change it to a traditional 1-30 squad number.. if you are going to make outlandish statements at least do some research first

Carzola is at the end of his development at 30 years old Oscar is 23 and when Santi was that age no one here knew of him.. Younger players need time and patience to develop .. We have the same members that want Oscar replaced also want Jose to bring players like baker boga rlc and solanke into the team.. If we were to do that and they show inconsistencies we'll be looking to buy a prospect from another team.. you can't ask for patience for certain players and completely right off others that hypocritical.. and by you I don't mean you in particular its a general YOU to the usual suspects that wait for a poor Oscar performance to come in his thread to suit their agenda
