Blame The Players Thread 2019/2020

Digne's first time cross unlocked Spurs. He's a cut above what we have.
He’s excellent going forward, a liability defensively. La Liga is a terrible league to bring in a defensive player, especially one from Barca who neglect defending (they are largely attacking).

Overall though, him, Gomes and Richarilson (when his head is right) are the three players who would be labelled quality. Gylfi has flashes of quality, but he’s a tad one dimensional.

The rest, I think there’s no question the team Joe Royle inherited was far more talented. The team he took over was in a false position, this group are not. Holgate in for Keane, Tom Davies in midfield, Tosun or DCL upfront, this lot wouldn’t get promoted from the Championship.

There has been some serious money wasted.
 
Players I like and want to stay:

Mina
Digne
Iwobi
Richarlison
Gomes

The rest of them I either hate with a passion (Tosun, Schneiderlin) or could care less (Pickford, Davies, Keane, Sigurdsson)

Amazing that not a single player from that disastrous summer of 2017 has become and out and out success. Pickford is hit and miss at best.

Unlike Utd, Spurs, Arse and the RS of the original big 5 we went cheap buying journeyman during the Prem era perhaps Kanchelskis and Lukaku being the only top quality players recruited in the era. The galling thing is wasting big money on Siggi, Snides etc appears to have blown our load making our one and only shot at breaking out of mid table vanish.

The reason we have been uncompetitive and getting worse is down to reaping what you sow our recruitment has been dreadful for decades.
 
Quite right there's a thread for this shower.

IMO, the best any decent manager could get out of this lot is 9th/10th.

They are really not that good. Leave out their price tags and just use your judgement on their performances.

£500M wasted on players in 3 seasons.

They simply haven't been scouted with character and blend factored in.
 
Look at the team Moyes got us 4th place with. Good managers make good players, not the other way around. Get rid of Silva
 

The atmosphere, the wind, the weather or anything, just not Silva’s fault.

strange opinion for you hk

a lot is Silva’s fault. I’m surprised you don’t think any of it is his

Very supportive of you

On topic, the players are blerts and we should hold up banners at the games to indicate which boo is for which culprit.....”This is for the players” BOOOOOOOOOOO

“This is for Silva” BOOOOOOOOOOOO

“This ones for Bill” BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

wasting money and ending up with new players putting in similar spineless performances as seen since Martinez second season. Incredible really. They deserve to be kicked up and down county road
