I am not taking that away from you 😄 don't play the victim card here while all you do is moan here and tell everyone how wrong they are.

How am I moaning? I'm stating my opinion.

I don't feel like a victim.

I have never said SFL should stay? Show me where I said that?

SFL lost the dressing room and we stopped playing and he ran out of ideas.

We needed a temporary manager until the summer.

We all know you're a Lampard fanboy mate, stop it.

Judging someone that has been here for three weeks is simply idiotic and braindead.

You're showing that your IQ is incredibly low. How can you like someone that was statiscally the worst manager in our history under Abramovich, but hate someone that won 5 out of his first 7 matches in his start as a manager in the middle of a season?!

Answer my post coherently with some good arguments please, if you are capable of giving those.

Lampard fanboys like you make me sick, and it hurts my brain when I read your posts. 

Dude shut up.

I respect SFL 

I agreed it was time for him to go

I don't like the appointment of TT 

What else do you need?

Mount improved in the second half and was definitely the only one out of all our attackers to create something...I did not understand the persistence to play with 3 CBs when we had less than 20 minutes to play and we weren't getting the ball into dangerous positions like  we did in the first 55-60 minutes. Our final pass was lacking the whole game but we lost a bit of control after the penalty and it was painful to watch. Southampton did their homework and overcrowded the middle and made us rely heavily on our WBs but they lack the pace  to go 1on1. CHO in for Reece would have been the better sub IMO. Poor performance and shit result but we didn't lose so I can live with that. 

We have 3 massive games ahead of us which will demand better performances and I really hope we deliver.

The first time TT was mentioned after he was sacked I said "no fucking way".

I respect SFL and always will. 

Trying to put words into my mouth is fine, but I ain't swallowing them.

I got on board the SFL out train. I can't even be arsed to dig up the posts. He lost it. It was a shame.

I thought he played well, he was driving and opening up chances

I have a feeling that Tuchel has sort of taken CHO 'under his wing'. Basically he expects a lot more from him, and is trying to hold him to a higher standard. 

Granted, his decision to bring on Ziyech instead did no favors, but its simply a case of Tuchel being strict with his pupil I think.

Subbing a sub is the ultimate kick in the knackers though. 

Ziyech did zero after coming on.

It was a big mistake IMHO

Ziyech is a donkey , weak ass set piece merchant , why bring him on 

[ZAPHOD2319 4,801]

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. CHO was not doing what Tuchel was telling him to do so he pulled him off the pitch.

 

sounds like a manager to me

This is the problem

A team on the back of 6 defeats, and we have a massive defensive line up. That ironically couldn't even defend.

Azpi and James is overkill one or the other.

We know Kante and Kova don't work.

Tammy wasn't the right man - should have been Giroud. 

Zero diagonal balls and we looked awful when trying to break the press we all knew would happen in the first half.

I'm genuinely concerned for the Atleti game - but as an optimist, I'm hoping we win it.

He was still an incredible buy though- what £40ish million. The guy has single handedly transformed that team.

Had hoped one of our signings could have done that, but no sign of it so far, still could happen next season though.

You're still judging someone that has been here for 3 weeks! He took over a team that has been in one of the worst forms in the league, and he won 5 out of 7 and lost none ffs.

Give him some time and judge him next season. This is a manager that actually has a CV to back up his credentials as a manager.
