Spurs playing poorly too. Fernandes,however,is just so unlikeable.

Personally think talk of firing the manager is ludicrous. Let's tackle the root of the problem. Firing a manager every 3 months resolves nothing . It just perpetuates the situation.

You think we'll score. I like your optimism. Our squad is a mess. Would have loved to see aluko start. Not sure why ayew is on the wing/pitch over mavadidi or monga.

We have loads of "experience" which is why we are doing so badly. Experience of failure is not a good thing. Just look at coady for proof. We could do with an experienced goal scorer who can score. Ayew, daka,Reid are all very experienced but a load of rubbish.

I really hope so. Everyone over 22 can go.

I guess your team lost and are heading down to the relegation zone. Shall we leave it there for a few months?

If you ever make it to Europe again you could become us.

No. You were "big" in the early 70's and you gave it the big one 2 years ago when you crumbled from 1st to fail at the end of the season.

This is what pisses me off about the winks praise. He's a DM who can't defend , he can't attack, but people think he's great because he passes well - until he doesn't and then we're in the shit.

This is the problem when you think you can make 100 passes for each shot. It only takes 1 bad pass to set up the opposition.

And yet you were even worse than us every year for the last decade plus. Looking forward to your tears soon.

It's not cifuentes fault. The players are not very good and he's had no preseason nor incoming players. Our dof is the guy who we need firing

Our team has been mismanaged since vichai died. But you bought coady from us. That makes you even more stupid.

I felt sorry for them today. They tried, they were a little unlucky but the truth is they aren't good.

We tried hard, we just aren't good anywhere on the pitch.

True. Yet we should've been 1 up in 6 minutes if mavadidi wasn't greedy. The players tried they just aren't very good. We should've heard rudkin out for every second after the match.

Don't think it was a penalty. We've played pretty well that half but we are toothless. Got to do better.

Sort of sums up soumare and our defence.
