I am more able to accept if it means the board is patient enough to build on the manager attacking philosophy and wisely back him up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZanSnake 1,211 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 When Bravo shows more confidence with the ball at his feet then most of our 11, that shows how bad this performance has been. Not writing off us for the season, not blaming Sarri - but certain players should've turned up more. Rudiger, Luiz, not tracking back quicker and become spectators at times. We should have got rid of Conte alot sooner, introduce Sarri sooner and sorted out business with Tibo, Hazard, Willian sooner. We are now one week away from PL Start, four from window closing, this isn't how the club should've been run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Caballero has really prevented an embarrassment here. I hope Sarri figures out Alonso is a fraud ASAP. All he ever does is put aimless crosses in the box when he gets in the final 3rd.He cant defend and is slow as hell as well. The man is and will always be a midtable level footballer. I hope Emerson is something special. Cant wait to see the back of Alonso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman60 1,343 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 The good thing about this defeat is that it has shown up many frailties that hadn't shown up in the previous pre-season fixtures. Plenty of work ahaead for the Boss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be great if we could produce some world class talent from the academy- that is actually given a chance... previous managers haven't had the balls to do it. Maybe this time we have a manager that may realise we have no other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valdo 583 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Forget about sarriball against top 6 teams (besides United maybe) we lack way to many good players to be able to play the way sarri wants us to play. To much deadwood in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwork 1,794 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 LOL at the people who didn't think we needed Golovin. Cesc has no legs, Barkley is completely useless all he can do is run with the ball in open space. Amazing reading this thread not one criticism of him.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 How many times did you hear a wc commentator saying "Abra cannot miss this player" ? How many times did you hear "Eden Hazard is surely already packing for Madrid" ? We are an ex empire these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alabama 1,992 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 In Sarriball the ffg are crimes punishable by subjecting the individual to long bench terms even that may last throughout the season .. 1. Playing Alonso as a left back 2. Playing Morata as striker or without quality right wing player capable of putting decent amount of goals for the season.. 3. Playing Fabregas and Luiz against high quality opposition teams that presses high ala Spurs/City/Pool... 4. Expecting any quality delivery from Pedro is a huge crime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably also going to have to be Emerson for Alosno. Sarri still needs to learn his players. He will soon realize what is clear to some of us. Luiz and Alonso cant get it done in a back four. The former will never have the required discipline and positional sense and the latter is just an ordinary player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some think we have plenty of midfielders. Well, we do, true. But the quality is shocking. Getting Jorginho SHOULD NOT have meant Golovin is no longer needed ffs.

Starman60 1,343 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Just say we had won this game with this side. A lot of people would have been saying we are unbeatable, going to win the league etc.etc.etc. Our problems stem way back into last season we all see them, so dont think that the manager doesn't. But we cannot go out and purchase a ready-made side, it will take time. So relax, give Sarri time and enjoy the ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
