standup

And if you had bothered reading the rest of the post you would have read that I said the defence is too vulnerable! Torres missed chances in the last 2 games where had he scored it could have been game over. The fact is we can't keep relying on our midfielders and defenders to keep scoring. But I do agree that we need to get our defence in order.

We're not going to win anything with the strikers we have and the defence is too vulnerable at set pieces. Torres after his injury has gone back to his woeful early form and Ba and Eto'o aren't up to it. Too casual in first half when we were in control. The title is there for the taking but sadly I don't think it will be us. We can't seem to put a run together. Just hope the Goons don't win it. Anyone but them!!!

What? You can't compare Hazard with Kagawa?

Why are people panicking? It's November and we're 4 points behind, still in the Capital One Cup and on verge of qualifying for knockout stages of Champions League. Do I think Jose has made mistakes? Yes, of course he has. Am I happy with the way we've played and the results? Not completely. Can we challenge for title? Yes. It's a poor league this season where there isn't an outstanding team. We need to be patient and give Jose time to build a new dynasty. JT, Lamps, Ashley Cole are nearing the end of their careers and need to be replaced.

To those who thought Jose walked out of press conference because he was really pissed off, well he's mugged you off as well as the journalists who thought he was cracking up. Takes pressure off the players and there's the result! Well done Jose.

Well said. Luckily the people who sit around me and that I meet before the game are all behind Jose. It's very important to get behind the team as last season the atmosphere was very toxic with Benitez in charge. I was very anti Benitez myself but never during the game where you have to get behind the team.

Great idea. So if Mourinho decided to do that then what authority would he have over the team? And if he doesn't then you'd have the problem of hiring yet another manager. Mourinho's a proven winner and some people on here should have more faith.

Well said mate. We'd be an even bigger laughing stock if we sacked Jose. Who top manager would seriously join us? In Jose we trust. Get behind him!

So who would you bring in to replace Jose?

We've waited so long to get Jose and some tits on this site are already calling for his head. It's a disgrace. Yes, he's made mistakes, haven't all managers? Fergie never made any mistakes? It's how you react and how you finish the season NOT HOW YOU START???? Some idiot was slating Willian saying he's a waste if money after 1 game! Get a grip! I only hope that those moaners don't go to the Bridge! Bushman, I'm still waiting for your answer to my question?

You're judging Willian after 1 game?

So what would you do? Sack him?

It hasn't been a good start but there's no need to panic. We need stability and even if we don't win anything this season we must still keep Jose. He will get it right. Have faith.

Totally agree mate. We'll play worse than that this season and win! Do some people on here want us to sack Jose?

Are you for real? How many games have we played this season? Get real.
