Fans will show discontent and he will be sacked

Discontent? At no being beaten every week? At not conceding goals?

Mate, we haven't got the players to play like Man City or Barcelona.

We haven't got the players to go out and play Chelsea or Swansea off the field.

5 weeks ago we were in the bottom 3 and playing like it.

Now we are 9th and playing like it.

We all want fast attacking football with millions of goals scored every week and none conceded, but it will take a lot more money than Moshiri's got and it ain't gonna happen in the near future either.

If you don't like what you see, my advice would be to support a team you enjoy watching.

I’m not asking for any of those things we have a manager that only knows one way and it seems showing. You happy for this for a few years? Bet your not.
 
I saw him hold the ball up much more than he has recently, long hopeful punts from the back and he was holding them. Surely you aren't expecting a kid who made his debut 12 months ago to singlehandedly smash the champions' backline? He held the ball up and gave the defence a little respite. Was it perfect, no of course not but for the first 80 minutes he allowed the defence to have a breather. Compare him to Sandro who didnt offer that.
That’s the worst I’ve seen him for hold up play and his reaction time is abysmal. We all see differently anyway. Merry Xmas Arch
 
Most pleasing aspect was changing the shape of the team at half time and realising we hadn't a hope of winning. Draw was the very best we could achieve and we did. It beats getting battered every week, we have added quality coming back soon should improve things further up the field.

Sandro needs new boots, slipping all over the place.
 
our game:-

Passing could be lot better.
DCL upfront has no chances to show if he can actually score, so wait and see.
We do need though a Striker.
Sandro cannot see him making the grade TBH.
Davies needs to find his football skills and stop trying to be the one man match winner.
Gana going to be a heck of loss for upto 6 weeks if it is the hammy.
Good deputy in Bangthemin.

At the end of the day a deserved point thought Chelsea would do us. Overall nearly player for player they are better than us, great passing, no hoofball!!!
 
I just wish we could have better counter attacks, build up was bloody poor today. If we had better passing between players we could have turned a decent point into three awesome points. But we're not there yet. One point will do fine today.

What are you asking for then?

After 5 games of Sam's tenure, i'm satisfied that we are no longer flirting with the bottom 3.

Im satisfied that he has done what he says on the tin and sorted our defence out.

Who knows what the next few years hold, nobody does, but i'd like to think that as supports, we acknowledge the work he is doing at the moment ie, making us hard to beat.

Look across the park mate, you can have as many attacking players as you like, but if you can't defend you ain't winning nothing.
