Yeah, this slump is worrying. Virtually a full strength squad, and we’ve gone properly to shit. And Emery seems completely unable to get things sorted.

I really hope we haven't broken another one.

There was no outlet ball tonight.  Defenders literally had minutes on the ball, but the midfield and forward provided no outlet.

I think failing to get the Joao Felix deal over the line has done us hard. He's not even playing at Chelsea. We're desperate for that killer ball

The problem is that we haven’t played that well, bar the odd game, since January. The start of this season our results in the league were fine, but we’ve had benign fixtures. We’ve had some good night’s in the Champions League but our poor performances are starting to drag us down. We’re defensively sloppy - tonight another prime example and we’ve lost our spark in attack.

We’ve also got far too many players out of form. I think Doug and Diaby are really big losses from our squad.

I don’t agree about Diaby, Paul. He was mostly shite.

Diaby had pace and a decent shot on him but I don't think he would have been much use tonight.

Bruges were physical fuckers which Diaby was so crap against, weak as piss. And they didn't allow much space for us to play passes into space which was when Diaby was mainly effective.

Emerys can piss off once a better opportunity comes if the players dont get their fucking act together

He offered a different option and was involved in 19 goals (scored or assisted). Regardless of whether he didn’t hit the heights we wanted that gave us some output. Philogene might not be a direct replacement, but has proximate to it and he’s giving us nothing. I don’t particularly blame him, he’s a kid who’s had a good season in the Championship it’s quite the gamble.

I think mentality is the issue. The players are talented and fit. I think now we've got into a position where results are expected, we struggle.

Quite simply, this slow pace shite is killing us. We look far better with quick pass and move. That tonight was as bad as anything Steve Bruce/Steve Gerrard produced. Utterly clueless

So yes, I'm worried.
