ball came off a city player. not offside.

That's not how offside works

It is. Once the ball is played by an opponent, even if it's just the slightest nick, then you are onside. Unless they've changed the rules since I played.

midfield lads have vanished....

Yaya is playing forward and jogging back... Lampard doesn't have the legs to track back and defend consistently.

As Tolmie predicted, utter bobbins in the last 15 minutes.

ball came off a city player. not offside.

he is offside in the secondary stage which covers things like ricochets, rebounding off the post and goal keeper saves

Last season we would have powered forward and got at least one more. Things are just not right at the moment, we need a good summer to sort this squad out.

Lampard has been absolutely shit...

I would replace Yaya/Lampard with Dinho tbh at HT.

Yaya was great those first 15 min but his defensive ability is once again not there.

what a tit Kolarov, give them a stupid foul and a chance to lump it in the box again

 

[G-Star Medium Rare]

Getting over-run in midfield ( again!)
Time to swap Lamps for Dino

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

Navas, Demichelis, Mangala, Kolarov and Fernando are Europa League players at best.


Can't even hack it against a Tim Sherwood side.
