It's clearly a decision made to protect Starmer. Burnham would be way more popular.

So much for the Labour party putting Country before party.

I'm seriously thinking of voting Green next election, which would be a wasted vote in my Labour area.

It's insulting to compare him to Trump, he's nothing like that clown, however he's certainly not popular.

This is a big mistake imo. In people I know who are tempted by reform, they all really don't like Starmer. Burnham speaks their language and is liked a lot more.

Starmer is toxic to labour, even I don't like him and I'm Labour through and through.

Ali is letting too many goals in, but Slot said he had swelling on his knee after that knock with Gomez. Nothing serious I believe, but perhaps he can be rested Wednesday. Goalkeeper is one area we have depth.

It doesn't help that VVD has no competition. Slot can't bench him because he's now our only CB and we know the drama if you bench Mo.

Mo was good in Marsaille, but yesterday was like a flashback to before he went to Afcon.

I believe Ali had swelling on the Knee after that clash with Gomez.

Probably needed rotation. He Dare not risk injury to either Kerkez or Frimpong. He's caught between a rock and a hard place imo.
January 24, 2026 at 10:02 PM
He has, but I can't be mad at him. He should have cover. Competition to keep him on his toes and to rotate with.

I'm a little bit tired of seeing Virgils casual mistakes, but he's playing every single game with hardly any break and then for most of the game the only CB on the pitch. Endo did ok, but was predictably tiring towards the end

This is clearly not our season.

Agree completely, it's not Slots fault.
January 24, 2026 at 9:12 PM
I didn't want him, I said that from the start. Too rich for me, but I am certain he will bang in a ton of goals next season and we will ask be singing for him.
January 24, 2026 at 8:43 PM
Totally agree!

We did need 2 x No 9s though, so it is the start of a rebuild.

Agree re Guehi, but I wouldn't want us to pay him 300k a week and break our wage structure, but not bringing anyone in this month is negligent, but I'll tell you who will pay the price for that...Slot, not Hughes, whose fault it is.
January 24, 2026 at 8:21 PM
We needed a rebuild and it's nowhere near done. We needed a RB, a LB, we probably had to sell Nunez so we needed 2 x 9s, Diaz wanted to go.

Wait till we have to replace Mo, Virg, Robbo and Ali.
January 24, 2026 at 7:54 PM
They all do.
January 24, 2026 at 7:37 PM
Completely disagree that Slot is the issue. Agree that we should have gotten a another CB and at least a winger. Fair enough we missed out in the summer but that should have been immediately fixed when the window opened.
January 24, 2026 at 7:37 PM
We had 1 CB for most of that game, that doesn't help. I'm more mad at Hughes than I am Slot at this point.
January 24, 2026 at 7:31 PM
Agree re the midfield, they were absolutely shot by 80. It was a quick turn around from Marsaille, but still.
January 24, 2026 at 7:30 PM
Thank you, you too!
