Winks said we don’t practice penalties in training after the Chelsea defeat. I mean wtf kind of coaching is that from the management team?!?!

Also to pick out one that goes under the radar, Davinson Sanchez has gone backwards at a rate of knots this season (no doubt not helped by going in and out of the team in recent times).

Can’t see a way back into this.

Might go for a long walk off a short cliff.

Its a long walk off a short pier.

Long walk off a short cliff, and you probably don't even miss a step...now, a short walk off a tall cliff - that would be bad.

To be honest Llorente is a striker ffs, how is a RB wanting to take a spot kick more than him. I guess he just doesn't have the confidence.

Again though we have Llorente on the pitch and are so reluctant to cross the ball in.

There's no defending what KWP did, it was a woeful decision to make.

Changes needed are Lamela for Sanchez and Dier for Winks.

Now we know why N'koudou never plays, please can we just play some long ball into Llorente

Click to expand...

Just so amazing how he managed that cross although thinking about it he over hit the cross and was lucky winks made that run

What a useless player

What is this "our entire season could be unravelling" bollocks the commentators keep pushing?

It's as you called it, bollocks. Got to have a story to talk about - it's whether you choose to listen to it.

Poch with this lineup is letting everyone know we need players. Skip and diaper in midfield especially.

He’s the best right back in Europe. Let’s not be ridiculous here.

Is that why he doesn’t start for City any more? Let's not be ridiculous here.

For all the grief Tripps is getting I'm pretty sure nearly all his free kicks on the edge of the area end up in either a goal or a golden chance. He has an incredible conversion rate.

As for the pen, I would have chosen him from our starting XI to take it.

Only 3 that weren't utter shit before the handball were Skipp, Jan and KWP. That's down to just Jan and Skipp now.

I think that might be the worst half I've seen under Poch and that's not hyperbole.

The penalty was little to do with his position. All he had to do was show basic intelligence and/or sportsmanship to not punch the ball. I do wonder if our refusal to loan players out OR play them in the U23s, insisting they just train with the seniors with near-zero gametimes, contributes to them crumbling under pressure like that.
