Face it your a supporter of the Catalan fraud and hide behind 'stop chatting bubbles' statements in an attempt to stop people raising pertinent points about the mans negligence in managing the team.

If you did actually stop chatting bubbles then maybe a decent thread would appear.

Instead it's nothing more than the post defeat rage therapy group.

You can call me Doc, Kevin.

No mate, I'm just a visionary.

But we never seem to turn that corner and when our better players leave in the summer, what do we do then?

Stones will leave.

That's it.

And, yeah, he's boss etc.. But we will get over him very quickly.

Our best players have always left. All the way back to Alan Ball. It's what we do.

You don't think we'll change, I do. Let's wait and see, I know you want us to succeed, at least you have that, some on here don't.

That's why I'm so frustrated, we could be something special with the players we have.
Our best players have always left but I bet not as many in one go tho.

I've not read the last few pages but his subs today were badly stupid.

The optimistic side of me says we are so close and he's building a great side, but those subs today having me thinking WTF was he thinking?

His obsession to get Kone on the pitch at any opportunity baffles me, Kone is not good enough, he needs to admit to himself he dropped a bollock signing him and start playing other players with greater ability, Mirallas offers much more.

Barry or McCarthy should have been off today, we did not need 2 DM's in that 2nd half chasing the game, and Del, Lennon and Mirallas should all have been on the pitch, those 3 are players that can unlock the parked bus working on the pitch together.

We can all see these things, why can't he.

The subs weren't the ones I would have made like.

They were breaking well and as a result there's no way I would have took a DM off as we would have been at risk of conceding further and our full backs would have to drop back and we'd lose width.

Isn't it more worrying that we're playing well and losing rather than playing crap and winning?

I think he's saying we're not playing crap and losing,to be fair we played well today for the most part but it didn't happen

If the system worked the previous three games then wasn't it worth persevering with?

Unless I'm missing something. Hindsight is a wonderful beast.

F..k hindsight. I said exactly the same thing to my son at half time. The game was crying out for a different approach, unfortunately Roberto could not see it

Again all ifs and maybes for sure. Trust me, I'm just as frustrated as you!

You don't think Lukaku will go? or Barkley if a mad offer comes in from someone?

At half time? We were laying siege to their goal mate. We didn't need to change anything at that point.

Lukaku was going to leave even if we finished 5th though. He wants Champions League. We've thought this the day we bought him, these results are insignificant on that point (although perhaps we could have gone for the CL this year if we'd got it right).
