Watched every league game of the season and Sandro hasn't been up to much whenever he has played, while most want to put all the blame on Harry (and there is a lot to blame there), he hasn't been on pitch giving performances of amateur footballer like Sandro. Though Mr Spineless of spring award goes to Modric by country mile.

Dissapointed as I am with our meltdown and Harry, I'm not going to give him stick for shouting at any player after that 1st half performance.

Good Lord, get a grip young fella!!!!! Open thine eyes!!!! I will start a new three to explain why...

Sandro wasn't great at all, his passing was very limited, he barely made a single interception I can remember and I'm pretty sure he was supposed to do a job on Taraabt which he didn't appear to do too well. The limitations in his passing stood out for me, rarely looked for a progressive option and overall I had the feeling he just couldn't have been bothered.

Who do you take off chasing a game out of Scotty, Modric and Sandro? That's pretty obvious to me, especially considering the level of performance. If you say anything in support of the manager or against one of the darlings of the forums it's disagree City. And yes it is fucking fickle, oh no the manager told off a player. Our options were so limited going forward on Saturday that even Gio got on.

We should have stronger options than we do, we have been punching above our weight, 5th last season could be 5th this season. It's pretty much a very similar squad, maybe even weaker. Saha as the other hold up man as we fannied about for fuck knows how long, Saha sicknote. It was said when we only had Ade that we could be in trouble if he got injured and look what happened? We'd all the ball, no hold-up and a team looking like they're severely lacking in bollocks.

You think another manager would win that game which we were pretty unfortunate to lose IMO? I still don't think it was a foul for the fk and we have no divine right to beat all the teams below us as shown by recent results for teams like Wigan, QPR, Norwich and Swansea against big teams.

It's not looking good for the run in, to be honest I'd expect a lot more from players like Bale and Lennon, you all get tore into Defoe, forced into playing the lone role, what more can he do? Where was the service on the deck? The quality crosses? A sniffer needs a sniff to score, but no, fuck him he was shite, rating of 2 or something else fucking ridiculous. I see it as fickle and I called it so.

I can't wait to see what this next new wonder manager will do and how the change will affect the squad. Jol can't take us to the next level, we need someone with more tactical nous. Step up Juande, seen this before. The only thing that can get us to the next level is significant investment in the squad, which funnily enough most of the teams above and around us have done when we haven't. It shows.

Oh look we're top of a league, any wonder we're short on options?

You talk a lot of sense there my friend, although I am no fan of Redknapp, you bang a lot of nails on their little naily heads.

If Defoe had any kind of penalty box movement instead of standing around watching, you would have a point here. But he doesn't. So you don't.

I agree with what you say with regards to that article; but Sandro is more progressive than Parker. Yes Parker does run with the ball forward but he often loses possession at the end of every run. His passing slows down the teams play as he cannot pass forward so playmakers have to drop deep to get the ball of him. Sandro was constantly looking for the give and go with Walker down the right hand side and played some good forward passes. Perhaps your fondness for "Scotty" gives you a bit of a bias against a player that is in direct competition for his place. Its a shame Sandro has been mismanaged this season as he was looking like a quality player at the tail end of last season.
