In every case we had almost as many shots on target (1 or 2 less) as last year. That to me says the problem is missed chances. Oh, and we're still the 2nd highest scorers in the league currently. Creatively bankrupt indeed.
You have actually watched us play, have you? The stats can tell you only so much and you can see just by watching us that we are not playing as well as last season, irrespective of how many shots we are having or goals being scored. We just are not.

If we want to do well in Europe as well as domestically get Mourinho.
It's that simple really

FFS the cry babies need to get a grip.
Forza Mancini
Yeah but we're the champions of England Pam. A league that is recognised for being the best in the world.
I'm afraid that argument doesn't wash with me. There are loads of managers that would have at least got us 1 win in that group.

This must be why Mouriniho's current team are pulling up stumps domestically this season.

Meaninglessly simplistic. So do we need a convoluted, quantum mechanical equation to assess if our manager's tenure at the club has been a success or a failure?Chippy_boy said:strongbowholic said:So:

Your choices are meaninglessly simplistic.

That's the problem with our media, they have you thinking Englands league is the best, it isn't by a long shot and you'll see that when Manure and Arsenal go out at 1/4 final stage when they meet a Spanish or German team.
