We will spend £30This reminds me of peps first season. But in his 2nd season he spent 300m on defenders
We were not at the races in the 2nd half. We just seem to just lose momentum when on top. It's really annoying to watch. West Ham were shocking, but a lucky ricochet gets them back in the game.Was disappointed they didn't come out in the second half looking like they had the bollocking I thought they deserved but at some point they have to stop being carried by Ange and do the hard work themselves.

Or Klopps first 2 until he signed Allison & VVD.This reminds me of peps first season. But in his 2nd season he spent 300m on defenders
I doubt he has many regrets.I bet Ange will be regretting his “I’ll let the fans judge whether we’ve been successful or not at the end of the season” comment soon enough.
I doubt he has many regrets.
And fans will judge him, rightly or wrongly, even if he never said it.
As much as the results pain me - the club is moving in the right direction. We knew since last season, that this would be a process that was not solved overnight. We are still a full summer's worth of transfers away from having the players in place to play the style that Ange wants, and that we enjoy, on a consistent basis. It may be harsh, but its true.
We have seen glimpses of what we can do - we don't abandon ship because of a few setbacks.
I really think it's gone under the radar how big of a blow the injury to Perisic was and how that ripped up Ange's pan for our forward line.
After the loan to buy option.In installments
For me missing Maddison is only one part of the issue. The big one for me is the front line. Don’t get me wrong Maddison is a big loss but his excellence has papered over a lot of the cracks, the primary one is how lacking our front line is especially our WF. This isn’t a slight on Kulu or Johnson or even Solomon. They are solid players who have potential but they just haven’t put up the goals/assist that are required for our attack to be effective. We shouldn’t be a team that relies on a superstar to get us out of jail.I think it's pretty obvious a lot of our early dominance was down to Maddison being the best chance creator in the league. Now that he's out, Lo Celso is OK, but he's not anywhere near the level Maddison was playing at.
We're struggling to find new methods of creating chances without Maddison, which is very worrying.
Came in here to post the same with some evidence to back that up.This reminds me of peps first season. But in his 2nd season he spent 300m on defenders
Or do you prefer the Conte stats of having not shots on targets in the first half?Losing the lead 5 games in the row
He has to take some responsibility, not this 'we are what we are'" mantra that he keep spouting
I really rather Ange starts Donley and perhaps another youngster forward already. Both Gil and Hojbjerg bring very limited effect to the team set up. Not to mention Skipp. Hope Ange has evaluate enough of the fringe players and truly give the minutes to the youngsters now.He got the selection wrong, he shouldn't have started Hojberg, he should have gone with Gil. There was no quick play in the middle with Bissouma and Hojberg
Also I maintain the front 3 including Son haven't played well all season and don't know what they're supposed to do yet. With a low block, Son, Johnson(majority of the time), Richarlison and Kulusevski, All look lost when they are hugging the touchline and run in to bodies
They work hard and play well because they are great players but I don't think any of these players suit the system
