The effort was there, the quality, especially in the final third was nowhere near good enough. Wasn't as awful as I was expecting if I'm honest. We really really need to keep our heads after we score.

"Accountability starts at the top.

The owners were responsible for identifying the CEO, who they left responsible to pick out a manager. Looks like they got both wrong. Lange's team was brought in under the guise that they would use analytics and find diamonds in the rough throughout Europe. That pipeline has amounted to exactly nothing at this level.

That 100m stadium renovation is going to be great when we're hosting Hull City mid-week.

This is another plate of lies we've been served. Totally and completely unqualified personal leading the club that will cost tens of millions of dollars to get rid of. This isn't politics, its fuckin football. Put a decent product on the pitch instead of worrying about the commercial aspect and vanity hires, Purslow.

The players aren't blameless, but they also aren't the ones forcing a poorly constructed 4-3-3 down our throats. Wrong players in the wrong places, hot and cold starting xi's and a mish mash of crap throughout the midfield. NO TACTICS, no style, no system. I can't blame a car that doesn't run if the person put coolant in their engine oil."

SPOT ON - WE NOW NEED A WIRE BRUSH JOB - CEO/MANAGER/COACH/SCOUT

The scoreline flattened us

Lots of fight and some great emergency defending

The narrow setup makes it so easy to play against us, I think that is a big part of it and has been all along

I cant see him getting beyond the end of sept

I hope he doesn't get beyond the end of August.

I didn't see it. I was writing some web content about how house building firms could make the most out of Instagram, despite having never looked at Instagram and (technically, though through choice, being homeless). I bet I had a better time than those of you who did.

Why oh why oh why can't we shut up shop for 5-10 minutes after scoring?

IT'S
BASIC
FUCKING
COACHING

GET
IT
SORTED
Gerrard pointed that out in his post match interview. He called it "details" in our emergency area. So is it lack of coaching or is it that the players just aren't listening? I thought Martin Keown made some excellent points about our set up. Especially about our being narrow and predictable in attack and how much responsibility and workload our wide players are being given.

What the actual fuck has happened to Digne, Cash, Ramsey ?
They are not even a shadow of the players they were 15 games ago.

Emi was really poor tonight, should have done much better for both goals.

"I think we are being mugged off" - same as with stuff outside of VP - some fuckers in suits saying it's all great when the reality is totally it's shot and having your eyes ripped out for paying for it!

Absolute horse shit from 1-11.

Martinez - wank
Mings - fucking sub Titus Bramble shit
McGinn - fat useless knacker
McGinn - less ability than my labrador chasing a balloon
Buendia - would struggle in the U11s

Gerrard - fuck off, and when you’ve got there, fuck off some more.

Bag of shite, shit fucking bastards.

Fat knacker  ;D

Gerrard is getting an incredibly easy ride by ex-players. Dublin and James Collins basically defending him on the basis that he's young and is gonna make a great manager. No worries, then!

It's the old boys club they think unless you were a pro footballer you can't manage, coach or referee!
