As a Kilkenny person, I can honestly say I've never heard of or witnessed such filth.

Oh I have no doubt, Eamonn. We were a pair of plastic paddies, and I think his jealousy of my name motivated him to make all sorts of ridiculous claims to 'prove' his Irishness.

Slightly better in the second half, but it's difficult to see what we are trying to do and we look so disjointed when we have the ball. 

 Confidence has completely drained from a lot of them (Cash, Konsa, Digne in particular) and we look that dreaded mix of vulnerable at the back and toothless in attack.

I'm absolutely sick of Gerrard.

Sack him yesterday and get Pochettino in.

You have to cast your mind back but remember when Konsa and Mings led a very decent defense, solid they were,  Konsa was being touted for an England spot. Ramsey forced his way into the side through sheer talent, his driving runs
had us all on our feet, Watkins was actually scoring quite regularly and even McGinn had a spark about him. It does well to look back because they all were, at some time quality players, so the talent is there. The defence started to faulter once Terry's influence had gone. Ramsey has had too much asked of him, still say in a better coached side he would be brilliant, Watkins has no service whatsoever and McGinn is not a midfielder full stop. To me it's all in the coaching, players are confused, the full backs are being asked to do the impossible and the club have failed to strengthen in midfield. Gerrard has tried to fit square pegs in to round holes to play to his preferred format, whatever that may be. We are confused, the players are confused and Gerrard needs to go quickly.

What a complete shambles. Gerrard has made terrible decisions with this squad and new signings. This could easily turnout as bad as 2015/16. Get rid of Gerrard asap.

I think the performance was far better than against West Ham so we should  cling to that at least.
We need to think that we wont be playing sides as good as that every week.
The passion, experience and tactics of Gerrard will filter through in the end.
We should also remember
Arsenal are top of the league - FACT. Jesus is a world class striker who can tie you up in knots - FACT.

Its unlikely we'll get much out of our next home game so we should treat it as experience only and not get too concerned. Its the games after that where you'll see Gerrards true colours, he'll come good, mark my words....hes a winner - FACT!

I usually write BOLLOCKS. Perhaps I should handily indicate it for other posters.

Gerrard just needs time to find his best eleven. BOLLOCKS!

He has to go - we need a change in Management.

It was surprising that we were not losing 3-0 at half time

If we don't change manager by the weekend -  I would imagine if we go a goal down early it could turn really nasty from the crowd towards Gerrard

I think it’ll be a caretaker for the weekend and an appointment for after that game.

There is no”if” about it. We will be a goal down within 10 mins. Haaland will not be as wasteful as the Arsenal players.
