Is there a debate that only one of yaya,kdb and Silva should be starting games? Does shoehorning the three of them into our setup hinder our play?
I wouldn't play all 3 but don't think we only have to play one of them. We did fine at the start of the season with both Yaya and Silva playing.

I felt very disillusioned and let down listening to MP in the post match interview. He Seemed very robotic and almost disinterested.
Genuinely believe we would be better off without him. I think whatever he achieves this season could basically be achieved by anyone, I think the team goes out and does what it wants. The only influence he has is to put the names he fancies on the teamsheet.... If he's going in May then he should go now. No point in keeping him.
You certainly can't see any evidence of what he does on the training pitch.
Same old shit tactics month after month.

I have to agree with you 100% on that matey.I felt very disillusioned and let down listening to MP in the post match interview. He Seemed very robotic and almost disinterested.

I think we are all missing the point the new TVs money has allowed all teams to catch up in quality there is no easy games now. If we want to replace a player who do we get that's better than aguero, or silva, but the likes of Leicester can find players of decent quality to add to there squad the same with the rest. I still think our squad depth may see us through . If not top fours a must. We need to beat everton Wednesday and give everybody a massive boost. Ctid
I don't disagree with that at all, and I think the Premier League is probably one of the most competitive in the world. However, as you say other clubs can find decent quality but not world class players. To me this is down to two things the manager and the players appetite. I thought another poster tonight made an excellent point, can't remember who it was. The post claimed the league is becoming more about players being athletes with the pressing game and less about skill. I think that is a worrying trend.

becouse silver is getting older and we need to think about the future ,
So is Yaya but nothing addressed to replace him. For the record Dave has at least another two seasons at his best yet for us.
Under a manager who knows what he's doing of course.
Xavi was still pulling the strings at Barca aged 32-33.

Someone mention throw ins?
Truly dreadful, I know it's only a throw in but it shows we have so little ideas.
I do actually wonder what they do in training, run around smiling for chuffing photos!!
Learning to defend them would be a start!
Yet another mediocre performance leaving me shaking my head at the end wondering how we are second. If we do win the league in May I actually think it will be embarrassing ........feels a bit like when Chelsea won the champs League
I obviously won't be complaining though
Hoping midweek will give us the opportunity to show a bit of desire to actually win something this year

Worrying thing is played all top 4 battered by spuds, beat at arsenal and drew with leicester, eveyone will say yes but these were away from home, dippers twatted us at home west ham have took 4 points off us, i personally think we havent got enough to win the league this season (loved to be proved wrong) apart from start of season when everyone was guessing when we would win the league by and by how many points, when is the last time we put a decent run together?
He said when questioned about plans for Lukaku we haven't any. He's so tactically naive it's unreal at this level. When you compare the level of detail of Pep or indeed other top managers it really is shocking.
Martinez would've been watching, imagine what he's gonna say to lukaku come mid week....

same old shit rotation, silva here silva there, left right defense muck around. midfield this that and the other.
defense change it.
engineeer is engineering, playing out of place, only when players play in their positions and their style can they bloom.
Chumps Winner, who knew really, the start of this season, who knew?
we all did ;)
Its not supporting your club though is it? To think everything is fine and dandy is just silly, fans post their frustrations out of genuine support for the club because we don't want to see us playing like this. To suggest everything is great actually does the club harm.i support my football club , give it a try .

Yaya is at a stage where he can only be relied upon going forward. Any team we pick needs to be able to defend on this basis. For me Delph and Fernandinho in front of the back four with Delph told he is a DM. From there who you play from Silva, Sterling, KDB, Yaya, Fernando, Nasri should depend on the opposition. Up front again, depending on the opposition we should have Sergio of Sergio and one other.Is there a debate that only one of yaya,kdb and Silva should be starting games? Does shoehorning the three of them into our setup hinder our play?
We must start playing a regular back four and having the same protection in front of them week in, week out for the rest of this season. Surely MP knows this?

Yaya had to play he won virtually every header from there set plays! The man we missed was Fernando a class act in front of the back 4 who shown how to deal with a fast counter attack in injury time! Really happy with point as we were shit!

Eh? They were obviously in our last third and penalty box, they brought on Jelavic who is a centre-forward.......sounds like they were TRYING to do something....
Well spotted , they took a centre forward off , and replaced with another centre forward , we replaced a midfield player for a centre forward , it looks like we were trying a bit harder.
I think Pellegrini got his eye on another job and not 100% on our team at the moment his post match interview to me seems he's not interested. Club needs to do something if we don't get to the final on Wednesday it could be a big turning point either way.
Not a great performance, but played against a very stubborn side who deserved the point. What bemuses me is the number of people on here who think it is the end of the world when we get an away point at a side who are currently in the top six, and have sat at home and watched it. Let the people who have shelled out best part of £150 to go down there have their say, they have a right to be upset that we didn't come back with 3 points. But they will be there again on Wednesday offering their support in the SEMI FINAL OF THE CAPITAL ONE CUP, and same again in the next round of THE FA CUP, and again in the knockout ages of THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE. I have no doubt we will go on and win the league, hopefully,!, Shankly saw the benefits of away draws, onwards and upwards!,,,
