Lamela, Dombele and Son should feature second half so there is options. It's all very flat and lack of intensity. It reminds me a tiny bit of the AVB days.

The sooner Lo Celso and Sess come back from injury the better. We need a bit of excitement going forwards

I think we will net 5 in the second half.
Please don't play sissoko and winks together in the middle...

Our style of play is so woefully ineffective. Slow, boring. Kane getting no service whatsoever. It's awful.

That's on Poch. He ran out of ideas. So tactically inept.

Anyone else the camera focus on Levy while he was on his phone and then his daughter gave him a nudge to put it away?

We need to re-build from the back. Get rid of Verts and Toby who are getting slower each game and get Mings in, some aerial presence, strength and pace. I'd be happy with Mings, Sanchez, Foyth, Dier and Tangana.

Get Sess at full back and Atal in. We are so poor from full back. Lack of tracking back and offer zero going forward.

Once we have sorted this out then we can work on the other parts of the team. We are so easy to score against, it's really disappointing.

Winks and vertonghen off for Ndombele and lamela. We'll win this game if pocha villas boas make these changes but he looks like a beaten man to me.

Whoever scouted Aurier is mentally subhuman.

They are no longer playing for the man that made them what they are, and they the players should shoulder the blame, these players were nothing pre Poch and I would be happy for most of them to go before Him.

We don't want to turn into Chelsea where the players just think "oh this running is a bit much for me today, time for a new manager that'll let me do what i want"

The attacking possession play is non-existent, beyond everyone drifting towards the flanks and then a hopeful cross... some players are just going through the motions... but once again we get a basically inexplicable goal that we concede in the softest fashion that puts us on the back foot immediately.

I think Sissoko and winks are a trash combination. Worse duo we've had since Tim Sherwood was in charge .

After 10 minutes i just watched those 2 .

Slowing down play

hiding in areas where they know they can't safely be passed to.

No ability by either to break the line with a forward pass
No ability to dribble through the line to create space as dembele would
No forward runs without the ball

Sissoko monster athlete
Winks steady safe passer
It's a combo that offers next to nothing in defence or attack.
I can't but Start to think the decline is these 2 mostly, it did start when dembele left after all

So Poch does have a plan B after all. It was get Aurier and Toby to launch balls into the box from the right wing over and over again.

It’s unbelievable just how incredibly shit the quality of our play is. Wolves and a Norwich team with 15 injuries play better football than we do. It’s completely sickening.
