Fair enough. When you said 'wankers the lot of them' and called them 'yes men', you must've just meant me. Don't bother responding to this post or ever addressing me again because I don't think it's going to be of any benefit to anyone.

If you read the post properly you clown, my comments were aimed at the board.

Dear me

Board out. Bring in sensible football men who know the game and will run the club like it's supposed to be run, like a football club and not a business.

Exactly...And a board who understand football more than the average supporter. Know about how to build a squad rather that just going "oh my god, did you see his youtube skillz video, let's go and buy him!!"

When people say 'board out', who specifically do they want out?

To me, these problems started 5 years ago when we didn't focus on producing our own youngsters or bringing in youngsters from other teams but tried to win with established players like Ballack and Shevchenko. Are the current board (who have focused on young talent and the academy) to blame for that?

Today was a shit result.

So was Swansea away.

So was West Brom away.

This problem didn't start with Rafa Benitez, but I don't know if he's capable of solving it.

against swansea and west brom we dint get outplayed for 45 mins. we lost against wba because of one man's brilliant display - SHANE LONG. today whu made us their bitches in the 2nd half and we had no answers. thats the main problem..

Give Benitez time,but the problem is that he won´t bench Torres and that is our problem.We always play with ten men and this makes me really sad,because last season we had Drogba,who scored some fantastic goals.We have to give Benitez time to be succesful.The funny thing is no one is capable of making Torres better.The manager,who realizes that,will be succesful at our club,because then we will finally start playing with 11 men.He only has to sell him.

Against West Brom we lost because Clarkey is a great manager and the strikers missed sitters.

Against Swansea we dropped points because the defensive midfield (Ramires in this case) fucked up.

We need a presence in midfield (instead of Mikel) who works hard for 90 minutes, communicates well and organises the team and gets stuck in. It's probably the most important position in our team because they're the link between defence and attack.

And then send them on loan never to be seen again...

And the ole 'omg he will sell lots of shirts'!He's shite at the moment but who cares biggggggg name!Then lets make the manager play him because he's a big name and cost lots of money.Doesnt matter he's shite! Must play!

The mods should merge this into Benitez topic and do the same with any kind of topic that pretend to discuss the same subject, otherwise this forum will become a circus.

The mods are way too lenient in recent days, since we are now full of reduntant topics. Tomorrow will be this "should Terry replace Benitez?".

We won under Mourinho/Ancelotti/RDM without basically any help from the academy. The problem is that our transfers have been awful and our policy for them have been terrible. We have chased players that don't fit into the system bjust because they are big names or are exciting or whatever. We are spending massive amounts of money to buy players that are highly skilled with no idea how to fit them into the squad. We've spent 80M pounds in the last 2 seasons on 3 offensively-minded #10 players. Why do we need three different players who play the same position? And then leaving the centre of the midfield and our depth at striker completely bare. How can you go into the season with 1 striker even if he were in great form (which he certainly never was). We have a board and owner that's so obsessed with buying skilled offensive players , that that's basically the only thing we ever look for-even in defenders. We don't have a team, we have a collection of players.

our midfield is good enough dude. if our striker can make use of his chances our midfielders wont be overrun so often. they wont come under so much pressure. i remember in the first 10 mins when rambo almost went thru. he was our first man for fucksake. we expect rambo n mikel to be an awesome shield to the defense, provide those incisive passes to the striker, and also take th onus of scoring or try to do so when our 3 cams are getting bullied. they are dms for a reason. and busquet is a perfect example. he has a role and follows it. the only problem with this team is the striker to take the pressure off other guys.

what is the fucking point of sacking RDM if we are not looking for wins? isn't that what RB was hired to do? win games, get top 4 and get torres scoring.

torres aint scoring, and we are losing matches

That was the problem with Liverpool under Rafa to many draws and losses.Could beat the big times but when it came everyone else they were pretty crap..Torres scoring at the moment needs a miracle espically keeping him scoring.

Mate, we had a dip in form, every club goes through it through a season.

We were flying at the start of the season.

Now everything is fucked up.

Good points, thats why I dont really see the reason for this topic, since everything we are discussing here, are being discussed in similar topics. where are the mods?
