  1. Get JDT gone. Yeg another no show away from home where we make no effort to actually win the game. The fact we are where we are in the league is criminal and purely on luck rather than judgement.
  2. At least Chris Brown could bring others into the game. Hirst might genuinely be the most ineffective player at the club.
  3. You actually play the ball quickly rather than plodding around the back.
  4. The football we play is pure entertainment thievery. We create nothing and either grind out a fluke and sit on the lead or we get smacked about without a hope. It's amazing they even show us tbh.
  5. I thought it was more of a penalty than France's first. You ever tried to keep running when someone kicks one leg into the other?
  6. You try running when someone kicks your legs into each other
  7. At least the first was an actual trip... that's just a full on dive
  8. So if they win today that's one defeat in 43? Bad team though apparently.
  9. Stuff like this is why England won't win anything. Southgate is far too one-dimensional.
  10. A Dutch side that people were raving about coming out of the group stage and a Croatia side that put out Brazil? I think both could beat France. Croatia in particular deserve a lot more praise.
  11. All tournament you could see Messi wanted this badly, and despite their average squad you can see how every player buys into the cause. France should never have made it past England or Morocco so no surprise they haven't shown up. Not over yet though.
  12. Good man, awful manager. Just an international Tony Mowbray - came in giving it all this about how he'd pick people on form and then in our hour of need throws on the likes of Mount and Sterling who have offered nothing this season for club or country. Most "big" nations make a change after failure - we're about to let him have a 4th. Wouldn't get anywhere near a top division side. My Scottish and Welsh friends will be loving this news.
  13. Maybe I'm missing something as I'm unable to watch it and just popped in to check the score, but everyone seems to be incredible positive despite the fact from the outside it looks like we're offering nothing and fluked a goal? Anyone got a quick summary?
  14. 3 or 4-0 to Norwich for me. We're awful away from home and they have a manager with brain cells. Another game where we have about 2 shots off target all game but it will be hailed as positive because we're a "young team".
  15. The problem is when we lose, we don't just lose, we get slaughtered. Every, single. time. It's all well and good having a way of playing but if that isn't working you have to be able to revert to a style that wins games. The fact that he dismisses the last two games as just another game after absolute hammerings screams that he doesn't know (or care) how important those games are, so needs to go.
  16. Preston have struggled to score all season and we let in FOUR and counting? Get him gone NOW.
  17. In an even more false position than last season. This team loses easily with alarming regularity and will plummet.
  18. ZERO shots on target again in two of the biggest games of the season. That would get any manager at any other club in England fired on the spot. I swear to god if he has that grin on his face afterwards I'm going to explode.
  19. Homestly if this is what a full month's training camp does get rid of him at half time. The performance against Burnley was unforgivable and to get worse after implementing your vision? Abysmal
  20. I agree with the issues in midfield, but I also think it's a tempo and aggression thing. This England squad is far, far more potent when pushing teams back into their own boxes, but Gareth is obsessed with sitting back and protecting one goal lead or even draws when it isn't necessary. In the Euros final we started off aggressively and dominated the first 5 minutes or so, pushing the wing backs high - got the goal and then sat back and offered no attacking threat for the rest of the game. I'm not saying you can keep that level of football up for 90 minutes but you use it to get at least another before you start game managment. Again against Germany in the Nation's League - let Germany dictate the game. Suddenly we throw everything at them and score 3 times in 10 or so minutes, because we don't allow teams out when we're pressing them back. Even against Iran, we looked ordinary until the first goal, but then we went for the jugular. I just don't get why we didn't even bother trying last night. He leaves some of our most creative players on the bench and starts people like Sterling and Mount who have had awful seasons and performances for club and country. Like Mogga, he's a dinosaur and needs potting regardless of the tournament, with someone coming in who can take advantage of the talent that's there.
  21. Not sure how accurate it was but I saw a couple of things that suggested it was the worst attacking display by any team in the Championship this season. It would be appalling jn any game but in that game? He's taken me from quietly optimistic to last chance saloon with that, especially with the cheery persona afterwards.
  22. The way I see it we have had a few games where we have been lucky to win, but how many have we been unlucky to lose? The performances when we lose make us look 2 divisions lower than the opposition and I don't see that changing, but I do see teams we beat watching that Burnley game and seeing how unbelievably easy it is to press us. In addition on the "Burnley are better and have a more expensive squad" points I keep seeing - who cares? In 2005 and 2009/10 we were in a far superior position, but they made us fight for every single game. We were pathetic on Sunday and if that's how up for it we are in the second biggest game of the season then that is a massive concern for me.
  23. I can't believe there isn't even a proper apology, JDT doesn't even look bothered in his post match interview. Not only that but basically shrugs his shoulders and says "we play like this every other game and will continue to". That he's no longer saying we will be more consistent after the WC is a major red flag.
  24. A team in third in a game against a local rival should be competing on some level. I think most of us could deal with losing, but we didn't even compete. By the sounds of things this was the single worst performance put in by a Championship team this season, and in that particular game it is unforgivable. Stop bigging Burnley up to be Man City or something, even Rotherham made them sweat at Turf Moor fgs.
