I don't care for your opinion one bit, you've wanted us to sell Eriksen, Dele, Onomah you constantly call our players pricks, cowards and shit. You are absolutely the worst kind of childish fan I cannot stand.

Calm down fella. I'm just not one of the happy clappy brigade.

Perhaps when I was younger I might of been the same, nowadays I am less tolerant of shite performances and a whole lot more grumpier.

Tonight I have said Aurier is shite. I stand by that. I think Sissoko is a coward with and without the ball making him completely ineffective. I stand by that.

With regard to Dele, yes if a stupid offer came in I'd take it. Sometimes you get players that change their style because of a good season and the hype around them, Dele in my book this season has been one of those. I like him when he moves the ball quickly but he irritates the fuck out of me when he constantly falls over, cheats and slows our play down. I do though think when he is on it he is a quality player.

Harry Kane has scored two goals in the last three league games two of which were away, which equates to around 25 league goals in a season, I put it to you that that is a very good return from a striker.

Again, with the high and mighty I'm a better supporter than you bollocks. All because you won't criticise the way the team played tonight?

How does that make you a good supporter compared to someone who supports the club but wants to be better than a semi final appearance and a 4th place finish?

Sure we've taken huge strides in recent seasons under Poch and expectation has risen massively. It's great that we have come so far but we want to go far and beyond where we are now. Not stand still.
When did I say it makes me a “good supporter”?

Maybe you’re the better supporter. Maybe constant negativity without constructive criticism is what makes clubs great? I don’t know. This is just the way I’ve always supported and sporting teams I follow.

You seem very defensive about it.

We need three wins and a draw to finish 4th, IF Chelsea win out.

Watford H
West Brom A
Newcastle H
Leicester H

Assuming Chelsea win at Burnley, if we cant win three and draw one from that lot then we certainly do not deserve to get CL footie next season.

Chelsea have:

Burnely A
Swansea A
Liverpool H
Huddersfield H
Newcastle A
Don't you mean two wins and two draws? If Chelsea win on Thursday they cut the gap to 5. That affords us two draws or possibly one defeat if Chelsea win out. Goal difference is in our favour at the moment but that could swing before the season is out.

Ideally win the next two as Newcastle is the trickiest fixture of all those for me.

We really do look lost when he has an off game like today.

Yep, as devoid of ideas when he's not playing. We just got nothing from the middle. A poor Eriksen, Wanyama who has defensive duties, Sissoko who didn't have a bad game but you're not gonna rely on him to take a game by the scruff of the neck in any way. Kane was very sluggish, Son crowded out on the middle, Lucas not getting anywhere on one side and forward moves being broken down out wide with Aurier and Davies. Just too many bad ingredients to the game on our part.

You telling someone to support the way they want to and you'll stick to the way you support strikes me as someone who believes they are better than the other.

I'm not defensive. I'm not constantly negative and I'm not constantly critical of our club. I'm quite positive on the whole about our club and the direction we are headed.

It still doesn't mean that I can't be disappointed or say that a performance wasn't good enough tonight and we should expect more.

Tell me, are you pleased with a point tonight?

They have some real momentum. And traditionally they have been a bit of banana skin for us

Just a little reminder. Arsenal lost against Newcastle and United lost against WBA this past weekend. It's not an excuse for our result tonight but it might put things in perspective.

And yet more people are seeing what I'm seeing, and your club is shrinking. I want him to play well, but he isn't. And don't talk Stoke, come on...
What do I want?
Why is just 6 assists this season when he should be into double digits? He is too selfish. When the going was good, no one cared. But the going has been getting worryingly worse.
Liverpool - really lucky with the second penalty. He missed sitters both at Palace and Arsenal - real sitters. Stoke is a joke and you know it - a really cringy moment and that could have affected team spirit. Kane bigger than everyone else, etc. Invisible against Juve at home.
We beat Chelsea without him, struggled against Stoke, ineffective against City, and rubbish tonight (overall play).
He is meant to be our inspiration and yet he seems to be very self-focused at the moment. No inspiration and dejected body language.


You need to hop over to the Citeh forum with your mate Walker.

Tomorrow I'll be singing "Come on you Cherries" and the day after I'll be singing "Come on you Clarets".

On a less happy note, we have to play both of those teams.

They'll have to go some to make up an eleven goal difference, if we win two and draw one our goal difference will increase and I can't see any one of the four teams we have to play putting that many past us.

Yeah it says they're capable of beating the big boys and 4th place for us is definitely now a worry?

I'm happy right here. Again, no real answer, just insults. No surprise there.
I hope I'm proven wrong, rather than right by the end of the season.
