[gonetomorrow]

He should have been on from the start.

It's almost as if taking "the best players"from teams who are utter dirge might not equal success?

 

[Joey66]

It's still not Walter smith levels mate

It's ruddy awful!

I HATE 3 AT THE BACK

 

[kenada_blue]

Think Besic has been tidy in the middle.

 

[Mozza1987]

Seriously need a CB before Thursday, Williams is utter garbage

 

[Aar_the_Toffees]

Well on the bright side this is an improvement on last season.

 

[Gladystweet]

Who's he stuck with lately?

Pies and donuts usually

 

[ExpatinBangkok]

Oh well. Looks like the title might not be going to Manchester after all.

It's not that Chelsea are playing amazing, it's us playing poorly.

 

[carolinablue232]

Can someone give me any reason why we're still playing a back 3 instead of bringing a winger on? What is the point of persisting with this?

Has it ever worked with Williams and Jagielka?

 

[Tubey]

All this criticism but.. we've played twice since they hopped up to Wembley on Sunday afternoon last week - and had all week to prepare for this - we've had a couple of hours training yesterday. There are tired legs, players missing and some on the pitch are probably not 100% fit (Gueye, Sandro) or match fit (Gylfi, Mo) - so quit the moaning, we've dropped one point and you can put that down to the schedule and the quality of the oppos.

I agree - very much so - but you'd still expect the bare minimum of a bit of commitment.

There's several players here who are not doing the basics in any way, shape or form.

Yearh but I've seen worse

 

[Gerbs]

I'll give siggy time bc he didn't have a preseason and has played in a side that looks resigned to hoofing it up top instead of playing football.


Saying that, it looks like I'm better defensively than him

 

[Huyton Layne]

Seriously need a CB before Thursday, Williams is utter garbage

We could just play 1 less.
