two problems tonight: 1) poch started a god awful lineup, due to only reasons he can fathom. 2) the players he has selected are letting themselves and the fans down. they are shockingly disinterested and uninvolved. i would have thought, that at least Kane would put some effort in. I don't mind if he's missing chances, but to just stroll around the field like he could care less, is not excusable.

Son is not even 25% of the player he was a few months ago.
Alli looks like he wants to be on vacation.
Only Eriksen looks like he cares. Which means, if we fuck this up entirely, he will leave this summer. Can you blame him?

We’ve got no engine in midfield making the machine move.

Poch should take Sissoko or Wanyama off, ideally Wanyama, drop Eriksen back into a Modric-style role and shove Lucas on to add some pace to the front 4.

In reality he’ll do nothing and we’ll be 1-0 down by 50 minutes.

If Huddersfield's goal doesn't give our boys a rocket up the arse, nothing will.

COME ON!

How is it a younger, more inexperienced Poch knew to bring off Townsend away at United in 14/15 after 30 minutes but Poch now persists with his core 5 no matter what? Anyone could've told you playing Wanyama and Sissoko in a pivot was begging for trouble, but somehow that info has escaped not only Poch but all his backroom staff

No. Wish we could. We're doomed to eternal misery.

Huddersfield throwing us a lifeline! Get Sissoko off, drop Eriksen or dele deeper and release Moura!

It actually hurts watching this performance. What the hell is going on in the camp? I don’t believe it’s all tired legs!
Theres a big lack of confidence going on in the squad

probably stemming from the cup final.
