When Torres in 2011 went for 50m, Mendy now 60m, Morata 70m, Van Dijk 75m, Pogba 90m, then Kante is 100m+ easily. Those same fuckers paid world record fee over 200m for the most overrated wanker in history, "valuation too high" for a genuine quality player lmao

That would hopefully force the club to buy a better midfielder.

Let's cut that young player crap, he's 25 and still searching for his feet so to speak. He needs to do something with his career fast or he'll forever be just a potential.

A new Salah whose departure we will curse perhaps? Such clubs circling around him should be a red flag to the board, they know their shit, we don't.

When was the last time he made a great pass? I genuinely can't remember.

There is nothing to win in the premier league anymore. FA Cup? Yes, play the strongest team, but if you didn't notice this isn't a cup game.

Dream on with Conte. It will be Molonso every game with a touch of Cesc doing nothing. The team I would like to see: Courtois Dave - Christensen - Rüdiger - Emerson Drinkwater - Kante Willian - Hazard - Hudson-Odoi Morata But we all know what the team is gonna be don't we? So does Mark Hughes.

I find it quite impossible to support and wish Mourinho well in anything after he destroyed our squad, reputation and went to our rivals and started spitting venom at Chelsea and Conte every chance he got instead of staying respectfully silent. Whatever feeling of affection I had towards him he made sure to destroy it, it was not my conscious decision to start despising him. My desire is for him to get close to winning things, just so his team of mercenaries could choke and fail in the end and for him to buttfuck United during his meltdowns the same way he did to us.

Who would've thought he's actually an attacker not a left-back eh? We are horrible with our prospects.

No doubt about it.

Yeah, 15-16 was much worse. Can't believe people don't remember how bad we were, like twice as bad as now. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk

It's laughable really that we play 5 defenders against weaker opponents. Not once have we started with a back 4 since the change to 3-4-3 last season. That's just lack of courage, fear and mental weakness.

It's just for show i guess, to say that "hey i tried to change things". The fuck he did. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk

Emerson is the new Michy for him. Just embarrassing and stripping him of any sort of confidence and momentum by giving 69 seconds to play. Pathetic.

Yes.

I said it before and I'll say it again - if he makes no changes to the team that has embarrassed us all 2018 long, then he deserves all the shit he gets. Well, it was same old against West Ham again and of course the result was expected, how do you expect anything else from these same piss weak players who have proven themselves to be choke artists? Conte is fucking stupid. Get rid.

Useless bunch, fucking useless. Shit piss poor choke artists.

Useless fuck.

Yeah man. I would pick either one of Milner or Henderson over Fab. At least they have the physicality and energy to press and get around the pitch. Those two were key to nullifying City that night. Fabregas is key to slowing down our tempo, and like you said, without his passing (that has been missing this season) he offers shit. Kante is the only top 4 team midfield material we have. All the other midfield combos the top 4 can field shits on ours.

It was a necessary evil this time.

Nobody thrives in a slow tempo game. Football is a game of exploiting and closing down spaces, you don't get space by allowing the opponent to close you down all the time. We should be aiming to change that and make this team a platform where those kind of players can shine, including Hazard and everybody really.

Yeah, normally you wouldn't miss the sale of an average player like Matic for such money, but compared to the dross we replaced him with we get the illusion of him being nigh world class. That's only because we are masters of regression and self-sabotage.

They have probably been drilled and trained day and night to adapt to this style. I don't believe they came with the understanding and attributes out of box to play such a style, it's mainly a team effort anyway so the individual is not that important, understanding and cohesion with team is more important and Liverpool have proven that. This is also a reason why they have gotten over Coutinho so well., another individual with understanding what he has to do to keep the machine flowing takes his place. Last season we also did pressing and quite effectively, but this season we haven't seen any of that, but we know they are capable of this. What I think is holding us back is that we are missing an extra body higher up field to do high pressing consistently against strong opponents, the opponent can easily pass out of the pressing because of the space vacated to accomodate a 3rd CB. I am quite sure the likes of Robertson and Trent-whatever would be disasters at us, because we put far too much emphasis on individuals rather than team understanding.

Woah what the fuck? Wilkins and now him... he worked wonders with our youth. Unfortunately understand the struggle of wanting to take own life, don't wish that on anybody. Rest in peace.

Thinking about it, such a line-up could actually work well. Willian doing aggressive pressing and quick transition in midfield, Kante doing what he does while being the ultimate pressing player and a solid jack of all trades supporting. This midfield 3 has energy and penetration, our usual midfield two is balls. We need to get rid of 3-4-3, literally no top team plays that.
