I've lost patience,hopefully he has too,I would like five new signings at least in January,to go straight in,not that we'll get them obviously,so much "dead wood"hanging around this squad,Goalkeeper,Centre Back,Left Back,Playmaker and centre Forward for starters please Mosh!!

i agree mate but the heat is on. january window will be interesting when traditionally the big money isnt spent. transition is about improvement rather than same old. At least we dont have Graeme Jones and Lennie Lawrence sat on the bench each game

Jones and Lawrence. Bloody hell!

I don't think the heat is on. Yeah we are playing a bit crap. But realistically are we any better than 7th in the league?

It's a big job, you could argue they all need binning given the pressing game he wants to play, because they seemingly do not want to press.

I couldn't agree more. I said in the barkley thread I'd be surprised if he's here next year unless he ups that part of his game. Lukaku, cracking goal scorer but just doesn't press
 

lack of pitch coverage, intensity and all round creativity aint good. koeman has a big job on his hands and at mo he aint impressed. if they were 70pc fit when he took over over what are they now 45pc? he needs to sort it
 
Pleased to hear that interview where he was saying that he was asking the players why they didn't start the game like they did in the second half. The mentality and attitude of this squad is poor and now we've got Moshiri and a manager who is being paid a fortune to get results, I hope we see some ruthless action with some of these players now.

A lot of them just aren't good enough.

6th is the best we can hope for this season. May overtake Man United with a couple of better players joining the team in Jan.

Barkley is entering his final year, he will only be given a new deal to preserve his value, it can't be for his performances.

We had Barkley, Baines, Deulofeu and maybe someone else taking corners in that game. They just can't do it.

The later it got the only option was lobbing all the forwards on. And it worked.

I do understand what you mean. It's hard though. The squad is miles away from where some people seem to want us to be right now. So so far away.

I don't disagree but 3 times today their goalie caught the ball just short of the penalty spot I.e outside his 6 yard box we made him come out & the corners were not flighted they had decent pace on them. Zero desire to get on the end Zero desire to get in the keepers path they were good corners.
