Absolutely no need to be 3-2 down. All our own doing.

Every one of their goals was us being sloppy.

They need a fucking rocket up them.
We are so fucking casual…..it’s leeching into every aspect of our play.
The determination to play out from the back, constantly, under ALL circumstances is what is fucking us over

And the insistence on a high line when up 2-0 is madness. That is on Emery.

Our away form has been mostly shit. If it wasn’t for two red cards we’d probably be on two away wins now.

We have and I don't understand it. Is the grass at VP different, or something?

We shouldn't be losing this. We've got enough to beat these. Gutted.

I know you like to be grumpy on the match threads but this is a new low, willing away games we've already won so you can moan a bit more, get a fucking grip.

Carlos is shite.

Played v well against Citeh and quite well against Arsenal.

Apart from that I don't see it with him. Don't know if his injury has affected his timing and balance to this extent. Or whether he's always been this casual.

It's the classic isn't it though. 2-0 up, do we stick or twist? We seemed to get lost between the two...
