I largely agree, but as I've said in Silva's performance thread, he runs games for Spain, and has been made captain recently, now that's in a pretty decent side, but here as you say, when its not going well, he is peripheral.

The problems today were started by the wrong team selection, compounded by players either not good enough, or not doing their job, and further compounded by players like DS and KdB giving the ball away too cheaply, with our defensive players out of position.

People keep saying its not the system, so what the f**k is it ? Because it seriously out of kilter at the moment, and has been for some time in the PL.

the simple fact is we have to many players that are way past there best, and we have fuck all at the back in reserve, to many are cruising along and probably know they are out on their arse at the end of the season, just look at the barca performance compared to this one. Yes pep could have put out a different team, but he put out players that should be able to deal with a long ball and they cant, until we change that defence and get cover for Dinho we are going to see plenty of results like this, Im prepared to give the manager time, some on here aren't clearly> Its easy to say play the kids, but what happens if they get battered, they have their confidence shot to shit and the tossers that are coasting throw a bigger strop and what is a patchy season turns into a bigger cluster fuck. Lets see what happens when the deadwood is gone.

We will no doubt beat Watford and have the fucking whoopee doo brigade creaming their pants that all is cool again.

This fucker has no idea about this league, and it's being proven week in week out by AVERAGE teams.

Dogshit 3 at the back week in week out, average lightweight midfielders week in week out.

Play well v Chelsea and its cigars out, they will be 7 points clear FFS, bollocks.

Nah , fucking bollocks .

Unfortunately there is plenty of doubt. We might win but I wouldn't have the confidence to put a penny on us doing so against any team in the Prem just at the moment.

Its all that plus more but the biggest issue is personnel and their ability and mentality.

Our back 3/4 , goal keeper and support in midfield are not up scratch pure and simple and have little upside in my opinion to come.

Ability without smarts , steel , work rate etc doesn't cut in the premier league.

You can argue about it being the best league however you define that ( 4 Chumps League titles I think since inception is a fair return I guess ) but its the hardest to dominate now and the sides go a lot deeper in terms of attitude and work rate.

The way we play if we lapse in concentration a couple of times in a game we are pretty much done for and would struggle against any side in the league.

Or it might just point to an emerging footballing FACT i.e. possession football is no longer winning football. Pep's recent lack of success in Europe with Munich and the growing shambles at City might just point to that. Oh and if the manager thinks that tackling is not important that won't help much.

Over the last few years we have dominated possession (let's say 65% plus) in a lot of games and we have probably won 90% of those matches, as we should be doing. Occasionally we might concede to a sucker punch and lose 1-0 (Sunderland spring to mind) but generally I would say possession football 'is winning football'. Today the possession meant fuck all as we looked unbalanced, with too many dogshit performances up front and at the back. As I said, has a team EVER scored four with such little time on the ball? Pep should be watching videos of that match all day tomorrow.

Fuck it lets spend another £300m , our squad is shit , Nowhere near as good as Chelsea, Middlesbrough, Everton , Celtic , Southampton s squads - we are just unlucky robbed by injustice and penalties.

Our manager is relying on shit bought by his best mate -or the fucking shit bought by marwood and cook, it's not his fault he's a revolutionary-in his fucking dreams .

Complete dogshit , fucking wake up with your gung ho fuck it tactics - you **** .

Sagna who like the whole side for much of the game was poor at least called it as it was and said that the side didn't give anywhere near 100 per cent effort.

The positioning when we don't have the ball is embarrassing and most sides have little trouble closing in on goal too often with no defensive pressure on them at all.

Joke it is but no one is laughing and it has to change before it becomes a train wreck which it soon will be if we persist with our schoolboy approach to games.

The joke for me was seeing kalorav one of the back 3 bombing on in the first half and to play Kevin asleft wing back was ridiculous
