Delap playing well and as usual the same crowd over analysing everything to shit on him.

lol you overreact so hard. Get a diary and write in it. Binning off JP after a solid start and for most games great build up and all around game is hilarious.

Yeah we should have signed Isak for 125 mil - he is really working out. Some of you act like it was all rainbows and butterflies with previous ownership and strikers. Aside from Costa, we haven't had a striker banging in goals. That was largely due to being carried by Hazard who is one of the best to ever touch a football and underrated. Drogba wasn't banging in goals for fun. Link up play by JP is apparently glossed over when you aren't looking at things with rose tinted glasses. Our attack is fine and we score - but we look like shit when we have players out of position at the back and generally shit players like Tosin which results in shit build up play from the back. Strikers can't score when the build up is dog shit to begin with.

Yeah pure profit. Then buy a defender that fits the build of the team.

Drogba was never some prolific goal scorer either. JP has had his bad games but we are scoring goals and he is great in the build up for the most part. Delap is finding his feet after being injured. Our defence is the problem.

Literally use like for like replacements. Ach is a perfect step in for Wes. They are high motor CBs who can drive forward. Badi isn't even that bad a selection IMO. But you've lost our best back to goal player in Caicedo who receives the ball in our own half, and you've insisted to play Santos (who has bad recovery pace) and Tosin who is even worse in terms of recovery together. It isn't rocket science. If you want consistency then use the right players to promote consistency in style of play.

You guys are overreacting pansies. The problem is on the defensive end and building up from the back.

We do. Its almost entirely predicated on who this knob picks in his defense. Like you said - Tosin - and you'll have a hard day.

Absolute nonsense blaming Sanchez there.

Wharton is amazing.

Been tremendous this season outside the Man United game - but haven't heard a hint of praise for it. I was one who wanted him out as a first choice keeper but you're lying to yourself if you think he hasn't proven you wrong if you had the same opinion.

Yep - was one of our best players in the Barcelona game. Aside from the mistake for the goal was again one of our best. Like Sanchez, if he wins us points, everyone skates over it. No one wants to even talk about how good Sanchez has been this season. One of the best keepers in the league.

Sanchez has been great aside from the Man United game this season.

Who cares about political affiliations. It’s sport.

Fofana… just stay healthy. What a half from him and Caicedo.

Santos put in a good defensive shift but I thought we had no control in the midfield. Similar to Connor - he puts up nice stats for, but it wasn't what I wanted to see from that role.

As soon as we get some control, what do you know - Delap and JP both look better. Not their fault at all.

Haaland would score about 40% of the goals he does on our team. You could put anyone up front and they'd look incompetent with the way this team creates and builds up play.

I'd sell Santos for the first bid that comes in.

We look a lot worse when he doesn't play. We just need a proper number 6 so Moi can also play his best role - 8.

Good thing we didn't get Xavi - absolute dross.

The guy draws the attention of entire teams and is pulling them away from their position. He is responsible for so many hockey type assists or close moments.

He has been okay. The goal and assist contributions are nice, but I think he is a passenger for a lot of the game - kind of like Alonso was back in the day for us.

When did we Americanize football? I'll just sit here and pretend Bruno Fernandes is in a class above Iniesta and Zidane because of stats.

Nope. He has been the best winger in the EPL. His end product and finishing are absolutely fine - this isn't the same player from a season and a bit ago.
