Time for your nap Joey x

Baines was a liability before injury defensively and barely went over the half way line good pen taker though!

Sams tactics are no different to Koemans tbh, both defensive af - the difference being Sam can pull it off and is honest

Bed.

he's not wrong tbh

Baines was poor

Wow, though not pretty still unbeaten. If the likes of Chelsea and Liverpool cant figure out a way to win, I like our chances.

I though Pickford was fantastic, Keane looked much improved, and wow, the old Schneiderlin showed up. He figured out how to run and care again, showing that when he does, hes really hard to get past. DCL was terrible, and sadly spurned our one great chance of the game, but I guess that happens every now and then. Overall, a draw in a game we are expected to lose is always nice.

How long will the steadying of the ship period be i wonder and when will the "let's start playing football" start.

Let's be honest a defensive 0-0 to Chelsea is better than a blood and thunder 0-1 defeat I guess.

It's already started

We were just poor on the ball today - and Sam said that needs to be addressed and they will work on it

But yes, a draw is better than a defeat

Also Sam doesn't deliberately fall out with players and blame individuals publicly. He's very good at man management.

We should have won it, quite honestly. Was just a woeful effort from Keane at the end, should have and, most likely, would have won the match completely against the run.

Great defensive effort, decent match.

Sam is performing miracles with the same players Koeman had.

Unsy did well to introduce Beni to the first team, but Sam hasn't had any of the injured players back.

What he has done for the confidence of our back 4 is unbelievable.

helped that they had no threat in the air upfront, could have been a different game if moratta had played, but ok.

They had Williams who had a decent chance

 

[kenada_blue]

Once sams effect doesn’t work and the boring football takes full swing he will then be sacked

Like Koeman.

Have a look at some of the stuff that`s been posted since the game has finished and you`ll see why
