JJK
Player Valuation: £5m
As soon as that goal went in we all knew what was coming.
The inevitable limp, half arsed performance that peters out into nothing. It always comes around just when you think they've turned a corner, but they always save it for that game that turns into a must win for us to progress.
People say "you can't write this", but you can. It's like watching the same season of your favourite tele programme for 20 years on repeat so that you know every line of dialogue in every episode.
Gary Neville got it spot on through the game when sky lashed up a graphic showing we had not turned around a game that we had been losing for 5 years.
It's boring. It's pathetic. The squad has evolved and changed in those 20 years, players come and go but this weak, loser mentality always remains. It's baffling.
How Ancelotti goes about changing it is how he'll earn his money. If he does, it'll be up there with his greatest achievements in football.
