We play vs a side bottom side fielding their reserve defense and other than a couple set pieces we create nothing. We're such a horrible side when a few key players are missing.

The quicker Levy and Enic pack their bags the better imo. It's so clear every penny gets pocketed or put into infrastructure fattening us up for a sale... ?
Absolutely spot in pal, great to see someone else out there who can see also what that little bald twat is doing to our club. Fuck ENIC

He needs to be in areas where he's going one v one with the opponent - either wide or right up against the line. Floating about dropping deep getting on the ball is not his thing, but for some reason we insist on using him this way.
I don't think 3 at the back is helping with that. We need someone in those pockets unless we're intent on hoofing it more. You're not going to get that with Skipp and Dier so Lucas is having to compensate. I'd bring one of the CBs off for Lamela to have somebody playing 10 so Lucas and GKN can get in behind more. It will hopefully create more space out wide for crosses too.

Winks for Dier also. Dier is redundant now we're two down and Winks will keep it moving.

The problem the World Cup has gone to Trippier’s head and he has too much balls and think’s he is better than he is.

That's harsh. He is actually good with set pieces. It's not as if Eriksen scores with every free kick and Harry Kane hasn't missed a penalty.

Tripps is actually our best player out there right now. Concerning. But remember he is one of our best crossers at the club. He just needs the ball coming to him quicker and people attacking the space in front of goal.

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).
No point analysing him this season, he's been injured and we've had about as many different line ups as mathematically possible it seems

Remember now why I always avoid the match day threads ?

Childish tantrums doesn’t do it justice.

I'm normally calm but this is a shit show. Skip is doing his bit but dier llorente N'Koudou fuck they are shit. Nkoudous only attribute is he is quick but he doesn't run. Raziak is better then llorente

Harsh. He isn't even playing in his best position. You don't need to be tall to be a fullback.
He’s not only too small height wise but he’s just so small generally he not strong enough and his technique and decision making make it even worse. Sorry for me he’s really no good.

What is this "our entire season could be unravelling" bollocks the commentators keep pushing?
Well to be fair in the last couple of weeks we have fallen further behind in the title race got knocked out the League cup and are 2-0 down and based on the first half going out of the FA cup. I'd say it's very much unraveling in all honesty.
