bushman 2,043 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Screw this game & play reserves only. If Chelsea are not part of CL next year, it will be far tougher to persuade managers & players to join the club by cash alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Can we please stop the pessimistic nonsense. We played utd twice this season and dominated them in both games. We won one and got robbed in the other by the most absurd refereeing you'll see.Besides, we should really focus on Boro first, don't you think? You forgot to mention that those 2 games were at home and we were then under RDM, who played attacking football. Now under Benitez, he's more concern of not losing first than trying to go out and win games from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just doesn't instill confidence whatsoever when it comes to matches like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would be doomed, it is pathetic actually.Think everyone would want to be optimistic for games like this but there is always a need to be realistic in situations like this. More than happy to be proven wrong here but better to lower expectations and be surprised. Has worked well in the past. And it's not like you haven't been negative before certain games too. Moreover, getting KOed by Boro could well be blessing in disguise in terms of allowing the team more rest and time to prepare for other games especially the league ones.

This (along some other behaviours) that prevents us from being bigger than we are. It is one thing to aproach the game like we did with ManCity (with caution and knowing we might lose), this is realistic (or whatever you want to call it). However, some are being complete pussies about Manure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This (along some other behaviours) that prevents us from being bigger than we are.Like I said, it's just a case of being realistic. If we are playing well and getting the results under Benitez now, we wouldn't even be pessimistic one bit. Some are just reacting based on the circumstance that we're in right now.It is one thing to aproach the game like we did with ManCity (with caution and knowing we might lose), this is realistic (or whatever you want to call it). However, some are being complete pussies about Manure...Can you really blame them? Man United are doing so much better than us right now. Lethal in attack, good in defence (lately) and playing much more cohesively as a team. And we are lacking in those aspects right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are automatically counting us out....Did you seriously just say we would be optimistic if we were playing well? What is the point of being optimistic when things are already going well? The point of being optimistic is exactly for when things arent the way they are supposed to be.Can you really blame them? Man United are doing so much better than us right now. Lethal in attack, good in defence (lately) and playing much more cohesively as a team. And we are lacking in those aspects right now.Yes, I can totally blame them. I am not saying they dont have the right to think we are going out (because we most probably are), but they dont have the right to say they dont care about it because Manure is a better team and we are fucked.How would they support a team like Boro (for instance).
