Looking at MOTD, Chadli was the only one who put in a shift and actually looked like he had any quality about him. Painful, painful watch just like the performances we saw against Liverpool, West Brom and Newcastle. I'm never going to forgive some of these players because its happening week in week out. Kaboul is pathetic!

Can't do it.

Can I ask if your still backing capoue and naughton ? Not a dig just wondering if you still think they are fit to wear the shirt ?
Capoue should be dropped for Stambouli.

Naughton was stupid for the first goal (was the fault of the whole defence) and the sending off was retarded as well (although I can see why he did it as Moses was certain to score anyway). Apart from that he was one of our better players, but that's not saying much.

Thankfully, Walker should be back soon after the international break, which I hope will improve us a lot.

="Indisguise, post: 4323681, member: 22465"]You'd like to hope not considerwing how much experience Levy has at interviewing people for such a senior position.
We're talking about the same guy who sacked Jol and appointed Ramos. The guy who thought it was a good idea to sack Harry after finishing 4, 5 and 4 and replace him with AVB.
Sorry if I dont share your confidence in Levys track record.

Genuinely don't understand it with Stambouli, every time I have seen him he has been impressive and more importantly at the moment busy and getting stuck in, especially considering how poor Capoue has been the last few games.

This. Can't work it out !!?? Stambouli puts himself about and can pass the ball and shows good energy. Capoue has none of these, he's awful! What has benji done wrong ? What's gone on in training !? Time to go back to basics. Paulinho may even have to be brought back in the fold !

Capoue has had some stand-out games and was a MoM on SC a couple of times this season iirc. And had a good pre-season.

It's not like he's been a disaster zone thus far but his form has gone to tripe so he needs the bench and stambo given a chance.

There are a few players who pretend to press and run after things and capoue can be one of them with his unusual gait and his flailing limbs...what an odd fucking run, ay.

Anyway, bench time for poo-poo.

Oh, and if he's sold I wouldn't be distraught.

MOTD were pretty scathing of our team at the moment and, as much as it pains me, i kind of agree with everything they said.

Yep the same as Gary Neville's comments 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately this is what fellow pros and managers think of us but they are spot on with there assessment

Reminds me, I need to pick up some sainsburys merch when I next go to the lane.

You won't find many bargains in there if the chairman has anything to do with it.

I've heard he'd rather throw the food away than reduce the prices before they go out of date.

Read it again Slarti. You've got the wrong end of the stick. SS implied that Poch might have pulled the wool over Levy's eyes but I'm saying that someone with Levy's experience shouldn't be that gullible, i.e. the buck stops with Levy, not Poch. ;)

I know I keep saying this but Sherwood tried and tried and tried to tell the club and the fans everything that is coming to pass now. Why didn't they listen? Because he had a cockney accent so everyone thinks he's not bright? He knows more about football in his little finger than the people running the club.

Who is he, fucking Moses?? lol

I tell you what, if the guy wasn't such a self-serving, undignified dick'ed, people might have had more time for his spoutage.

Imagine seeing that team on the sheet a few months ago - we would have been outraged with Naughton, Rose, Kaboul, Townsend, Kane in the side. Get a team out there who can pass and do the unexpected - Lamela, Soldado, Dyer, Stambouli, Outrageously bad today!
