Why was not baba starting ahead of iva who last time I watched before this game was made to sit on his ass by romelu while he scored a goal. I won't say traore because remy does deserve a shot, maybe. Gutless thinks that we can still make a "European spot". I don't know what stuff he is having, but I won't try it.

Where you here when we played Shrewsbury? Christensen, Ake and Zouma (who was " youth" at the time) got selected, in the threads after instead of being happy three teenagers got their chance it was "Jose hates youth, how dare he not play Baker and Brown".

Exactly - I can't be arsed with this forum anymore so many fucking haters and negativity on EVERYTHING it is ridiculous - West Ham are an in-form team and flying high, there is no God given right to beat them, playing RLC wouldn't have altered that in my opinion. I can't wait to see the meltdown if a new manager comes in and doesn't pick the youngsters. The thing is the manager sees these players every single day in training - he is clearly seeing something we are not, so whatever it is, the youngsters need to sort it out.

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 What exactly was the point of starting Remy instead of Traore when Loic is almost certainly gone at the end of the seasons? Why was Oscar played instead of RLC who has gotten much less playing time this season than promised? Why not start Mizaga (is that his name?!) when the match result has very little significance? Don't know about everyone else, but I would have gladly taken zero points yesterday instead of (an undeserved/lucky) one to see those three start. Also, since result wise our season is basically over, why not have a couple of players from the academy on the bench just for motivation and maybe a cameo? I'm genuinely beginning to believe that Guus is more worried about his unbeaten league record more than the future of this club... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having watched the replay this morning, I thought Remy's and certainly Oscar's market values probably went down after that match... Hopefully we get to see a bit different approach to matches after the break, then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I think I have reach to the point that whoever we played, old or youth, we will still get the same results. So in my opinion Guus could play anyone he wants. Just finished the season, and if we could, on the process, we will help Leicester to win it. Have a little break and start a new era under Conte.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Considering we dont have anything to play for, I want to see something positive in the remaining matches. Either give RLC, Baba, Kenedy, Traore a proper run at least to test them where they are before picking squad for next season. Dont care if we lose in that case because at least some young players will develop. Or play safe, play Mikel and win the fucking game. Im sick to death that Mikel, Oscar and others play week in week out, no improvement whatsoever and meanwhile all Guus does is keep selecting them so we can nick a fucking draw after draw in boring games. At least tell players to go all out, give them freedom to express themselves etc. I dont know, but what we are doing now is leading nowhere. Selecting same team, same tactics, no changes, no improvement. I would expect the board to have still some goals till end season like develop a youth player or sth. Instead our goal is what,; make another 6 draws in next 6 games? Its this mentality and thinking that got the club in situation we are right now. Sadly different manager same story because all they are are yes men. I hope Conte of whoever will be independent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see how things go after the break. One thing I've said is that, if we avoid defeat between now and the end of the season, we could end the season on a 22-game unbeaten streak. Looking at our fixtures, that is going to be very difficult, especially with Spurs, City, and Leicester all at the Bridge, and Liverpool away. Villa away is never easy for us (bogey ground) and Sunderland is going to be a tough game for us, too, given their predicament. In fact, Bournemouth and Swansea, though both safe, will be tough trips as well. Thinking about it, that's a fucking horrendous run-in But if we avoid defeat in that period, going 22 games unbeaten is a phenomenal achievement, even if (at our current rate) about 15 of them will be draws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get why you'd want an unbeaten spell inside a season to help morale and gain momentum, but what's the point of it in a run-in, particularly when we have nothing to play for anymore..

Precisely. Something for Conte to work with. We're scraping the very bottom of the barrel, I know, but something positive to cling onto over the summer is better than nothing. We're fortunate for the Euros this summer, otherwise it would be a very long and painful wait for the new season. 4 hours ago, Tomo said: Villa away bring a bogey ground is truly a thing if the past. 10 points in 5 games there in recent times has put pay to that, still saying Villa Park is a bogey ground is the equivalent off us still regarding White Hart Lane as a routine three points. 5 games doesn't consign something to the past... people ignore the importance of history in football.

MichaelDance 552 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 The issue here is if we keep on winning 1 point per game all the other teams need to do is win 3 points to drag us down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is certainly enough time to alter the complex of the fixture, yes pre 2009 I saw Villa Park as a bogey stadium but four wins since has altered my views on that regard. Look at Spurs vs Arsenal for example,ten years Tottenham went without beating Arsenal in the league, they finally do it and now Spurs go into it thinking they can beat them and often do. In fact look at our own record against Arsenal in prem era, a lucky richochet off Drogbas knee is all It took to almost swap who had the inferiority complex in that particular head to head.

Fair enough if this happen, but just because a couple of internet warriors wanted a team of U-21s to play, does not mean that should stop the current manager to do the "right" thing. Why is not RLC playing ahead of oscar? Why is not Baba playing? Remy has been said to be leaving us for 2 windows and I am quite certain that he surely will leave now, why not start with traore. This is not a knockout competition, we are not in a position where we would lose something even if these 4 perform poorly like baba did against soton. We literally have nothing to lose. and infact playing RLC over oscar would make us better imo. So why not give these kids the oppurtunity? Why just start with the best FIFA rated players?

I agree with your two examples, especially the Chelsea-Arsenal one, as that is something that has resulted in more than a decade of dominance... the Villa Park hoodoo has only been "dead" for five seasons (though let's not forget the 13/14 defeat, with Delph's worldie and Willian's red card), so let's not get carried away... even in their shittest of shit seasons, I expect Villa to go out all guns blazing against us, because, just like Newcastle, they are shitcunts of the highest order and like to raise their game against us.
