For the record Lo Celso is a player I am really excited about for the future. He’s like eriksen but can also run with the ball and that back heel to gedson shows his trickery aswell.

This shit show can only get worse from here I think our confidence now will be well and truly been shot bye, bye Kane. Best team won not even pressing anymore is a sign a new virus in town which brings a souless void to a club which should start refunding those fans there tonight, awful realise no chance with Levy.

Always room for embarrassment with us see enough of it over the years but now its back! Very impressed with Cantwell/Aarons/Lewis for them tonight even if Cantwell has the same effect of someone like Robbie Savage wanker if not in your side. Why is it teams who stare relegation in the face bring it together in the FA Cup oh well the road to mediocrity starts now with our cup finals getting anything off the Spammers and Gooners a bonus.

It’s not what he inherited it’s how he is setting us up to play game in and game out. It’s not a coincidence it’s his strategy and it doesn’t work for us as we are not a soak up the pressure and nick a one goal win kind of team.
Have to agree.

Against Wolves and Chelsea being pragmatic is fine as we don't have the firepower to destroy these teams and can get picked off on the counter attack if we are too high. Therefore I think playing with a lower block is better.

But not tonight, not against the weakest team in terms of defending. Not against a team who have tidy players who play in tight spaces and move the ball well. Not when you are stronger. Not at home. Not when you are 1-0 up. Not when the game is there to be put to bed.

I can't excuse that.

This is all on Levy. Poch needed to go because he had lost the dressing room but he got fucked by the bald one

Jose is about to experience something similar I fear. I think we all know what's needed in the summer. Jose will know what he needs in the summer.

It's all down to Levy to deliver.
Levy has had long enough to learn about player recruitment. When I was starting out I was not an expert in my field but after 20 years I am pretty good at what I do. How fucking long does it take to learn that Levy will never be great when it comes to player recruitment. He is a numbers man, a business man and an infrastructure man. That is fantastic and we have a great set up to show for it .

However a football man he is not despite being in charge for Christ knows how long. When I have an area of my business that I don’t know or have a poor track record in I learn and learn until I get it and if I dont get it I bring an expert in. I can only hope we get Campos in and have some real expertise involved.

Creative hindsight. Poch had signed out already.

What is correct to say is that we failed to support Poch 2/3 years ago, when it mattered. By this stage it was already too late. CL broke what was left of the club.

One hundred percent. The first time Pochettino asked for funds (his third summer if I am not mistaken?) Was when Levy let him down and I think when the relationship started to break down

Not sure where we go from here

Nights like tonight make me be thankful I no longer have a season ticket. Mourinho sitting back against Norwich. Please get rid in the Summer.

True - the CL final was the straw that broke the camel's back. Perhaps he thought that it was his best bet of getting some decent backing in the summer.

The South Stand is like that every week. Most of the supporters in the south stand go to watch the fans sing. Unfortunately the real fans can not afford the prices or they were Last in the seat lottery. All in all we are shit on the field and in the stands. I cannot see the atmosphere changing if it ever does. I blamed Wembley two years ago but it is worse if anything ?
Yes it’s odd. I was in the East Stand and most of the people around me were tourists from France, Russia and the Far East.

Fuck sake some of you. Poch lost to Colchester and everyone was giving him the credit in the bank.

Mourinho is here for three months inherited a rotten structure and there are voices to boot him out.

We are the joke of other clubs is also because of so such self-contribution within us. Ridiculous.

Fuck me when we win a game its "Poch wouldn't of won that" and now it's this nonsense, fucking move on.

We were 1-0 up against bottom of the league and we sat off of them like they were 08 Barca instead of putting them to the sword. Jose needs to take responsibility for that negative approach as well as deciding to play a keeper who hasn't played in ages in what was meant to be the saving grace of our season. We couldn't have had a more fortunate draw going against bottom of the league who have their eyes elsewhere and we fucking blew it by refusing to even attempt to outplay them.
