34 minutes together last night though, didn't really improve much.Alvarez & Haaland v Forest. 6-0
Then never seen them start together since
Baffling
Also this squad myth.. ...we do carry a lot of players really ...I’m not sure about that. I actually think rhythm is a mystery.
Seriously though generally, I know it hurt whilst it was on, but I’m happy to let it go. They didn’t play like a bottom of the league team, and anyway, we’ve got much bigger fish to fry this season. Now if we get rolled over on Saturday, that will be worth getting concerned and grumpy about.
At least tonight showed up the myth about our squad, and talk on here pre-match of the club being able to field two XI’s capable of competing for all trophies.
It’s one spouted regularly in the wider media too, about our superior “squad depth”
We are a million miles off CL in reality..rested players or notNow I have calmed down and can think more clearly, Peps over rotation saw us dumped out of the Carabau last season ditto the dipper FA cup semi, choked big time from relative comfort in the CL, same in the PL bar a season saving 15 minute cameo by Gundo. Now this total bin fire, not consistent enough for the PL. Drawn against the best team in the country in the FA cup and the CL is our kryptonite. A win at Ragworld is a must.
Gordon Ramsey and Olly Murs would have been an upgrade tonightWas bizarre second half, its like only Rodri knew were were two nil down. The rest looked like they were in soccer aid.
No. The World Cup can’t be blamed for the performances. Easy excuse.So you don’t think the WC has made any difference to our rhythm pre and post WC? The Brentford game was THE game that pissed on our short term chips.Our biggest cock up was sellling Zin IMO , what a balls up that was !

Couldn't agree more this 2 x team thing is shite. Half of our team in his first half genuinely wouldn't be starters in most teams incl Southampton..you cant beat a prem side with Phillips, Palmer Gomez, and Cancello in his formmm that's a third of the team FFSI’m not sure about that.
