Give us another shot at Real Madrid. We're ready now.

We are the best team in England based on the last 5 minutes of play.

Frank Lampard Masterclass. You all said we couldn't stay up. You all said we were going to the Championship. You all said 42 point in a season couldn't be done. LOOK AT US NOW! WE WILL NOT BE DENIED!

Great sub Frank. Put in Ziyech who can't dribble past anyone and take off our best driving attacker. This should turn out well.

This commentator is an absolute twat. Calling that a stone wall penalty? lol... GTFO. Been spouting shit all game - and he comes out with that bollocks. Really need to be more selective of who they let commentate.

I'm not sure if we have trainings anymore.

Not only do we suck - our team is dumb as hell. Why would you not go for a chip in and at least an attempt. My goodness.

Maduake's directness and driving runs is something I love seeing. Mainly because no other player apart from Kante does it.

It is fun trying to work out what is tactically wrong with us. We clearly have the talent - someone just needs to make these players play together. One thing I find is we never have players play between the lines. Can't link things together.

Come on Vesp. I think we all knew it wasn't going to be easy.

It feels like when you're car is at the service - and they have to keep it longer so they give you a test car to drive around in and its a lot nicer than yours.

Why did he get a yellow? He didn't ask for a penalty...

Sometimes when you're as bad as we are - you can have fun almost as much as when you're crushing it.

Frank's tactics are finally starting to show on the players. Keep him on next year to build on this 1-0 lead.

Okay he scored! Now sell him for 50 million pounds please.

I am once again staying up until midnight in Australia to watch us play some shitty football...

Maduake and Mudryk should start in our 3-1 loss today.

It has been one season... that started like shit and was turbulent on all fronts. People wanted us to turn the ship around overnight. In reality, you put all the pieces in place and give it time. We've attracted some of the top talent in terms of players. There is a reason they are being lured here, and they are being guided by people who know what they're talking about as well. Give it time.

With a squad below: ------------------------- Kepa -------------------------------- Gusto --------Colwill/Badishielle ------ Fofana ------- Chillwell --------- James/Kante -------- ------- Enzo ------------------ Maduake -------------- Havertz ----------------------Mudryk Nkunku We should not be close to relegation and play some pretty nice football. Get a proper number 9 in and even more fun.

Yeah, he is clearly struggling in a room full of stars that are just playing phenomenal. How he is not shining bright like the rest of our squad is astounding. Like DDA said above, he'll probably end up being our best player down the line and make all of you look well stupid. Sitting here and trying to assess players at this point is downright pointless. This team, for as much as people want to belt on about, isn't too far removed in time or personnel from the one that won us the CL final. Clearly it isn't just a player problem, but a mentality, motivation and all round club culture problem at the moment. These players aren't dogshit, nor is Mudryk. It is blatantly obvious from his previous performances pre Cheslea, and even his snippets of brilliance that he is a very, very good player. The club needs to remove the poison. Whatever that may be. A few bad eggs, a lacklustre leader, etc, and things will probably fix themselves a lot quicker than we think.

You can put in a sneaky $1000 bet which will get you $400k back if we get relegated. Might as well get some good out of the bad if it does actually occur... lol

Can we cut the shit with "money used to buy mediocre players"? Everyone on here was gagging for the players we got post Tuchel, and now apparently they suck. Ridiculous really. We made great signings. Clearly - the talent level of the players isn't the issue.

I didn't watch the game, partly due to the fact it was at 4:30am here in Australia, but also due to the lack of respect the club and players show for the badge at this point. Frank himself can sit and look at himself with that team selection. You'd think we were playing prime Barca with the way he setup the team. Conor should never play a minute for this team, yet he is a nailed on starter. Kante on the wings. Brilliant tactics. Just hope we get enough draws from this season that we don't get relegated.

I think Poch is perfect given what we need as a club. A structure, tactics, style of play, and someone the players will listen to. Not only that - he makes younger players better and despite what anyone here will tell you - he wins games. People act as if he doesn't make us a winner, but for the last 5 or 6 years we have been a cup team - who were unlikely winners of the CL. Not saying we didn't deserve it, but no one would have picked us - kinda like how Poch got Tottenham there in 2019. No one would have picked it. He is a lot better than everyone here lets on. He had a worse side at Tottenham, and he averaged the same amount of points in the league as we did during his time with them over his time there. Reality is - every potential pick is a risk at this point. That is due to the fact there has been so much change. Poch knows football, he knows how to manage big personalities, and he knows how to win games. That can't be denied. Get him in, stick with him, and let him make something even if we go through more pain. Tuchel looked horrid, Potter looked horrid, Lamps looks super horrid. If Poch looks horrid for a while, clearly it is the make up of the team - as we can't just keep chopping and changing with no continuity.

Poch did better than Mou and Conte at Spurs. He came closer to winning trophies than they did. Over his time there - they averaged the same amount of points domestically that we did... This team - once we get a number 9 - will be better than any team he has managed at Tottenham. Poch has proven to be able to play attacking football and develop young talent. He has some of the best young talent in the world at his disposal here. I think he can do plenty here - and win trophies.
