Crab Lungs

That didn’t take long.

It’s not a lack of physical fitness for me, it’s mental fitness. The game swings when our fragile confidence breaks (as soon as we get a setback) and then the legs go. Am I the only one to think this? I don’t think they’re at their fittest but they’re not unfit IMO - just easily breakable, confidence wise.

We will get battered

Women popping up all over the show now in football - and not all of it has to do with being the best candidates for their roles. And now we’re paying off an incredibly rich turd £5m when we’re one of the most impoverished countries for qualified coaches. Makes sense.

Absolutely this. That’s whats been fukking us for a long time now. I suppose this where leaders do or don’t come to the fore...

Rotten.

Great clearance by JWP. Stitched up v Watford again.

Been stitched up against Watford before, please not again

Don't forget, some of the people om here think as highly of Hoedt as he does himself. In these conditions, he's a mistake just waiting to happen.

Hojberg in average footballer shocker. Garry Birtles on the comms? Bellend.

Surely this is Marc Jackson’s time.

A person who doesn’t understand football is in charge of finding someone who knows about football. Jesus.

Yep. The people on here...

Weirdos on here. No doubt les is appreciating himself anyway. He was quite frankly terrible with the exception of Koeman. Ask Guan see if he can give you any snippets. I think Mane was a Paul Mitchell find anyway.

Definitely worthy of that appreciation thread. Definitely.

And not a very accurate one then, as Guido Carillo is on loan at Leganes, not Levante as per his article.

Yes. I’m offsetting it against all the Wenger/Vieira weirdos on here.

The most annoying thing about the scouting/recruitment department is that we’ve got it so wrong, so often that I genuinely believe I could do a better job on my own finding suitable players within our budget. In fact I don’t doubt I could. There a thousands of players out there that we’ve missed out on which cost a fraction of our flops asking prices and do a considerably better job than Carillo, Hoedt, Boufal et al. We genuinely don’t have to spunk 15-20m on players, we really don’t.

Roger Schmidt please... with his high pressing 4-2-4 shoot within 7 seconds of winning the ball back style!

Where is Heisenberg with the Bunsen and Beaker pics?!

Good player, not sure if Prem suited though. Also he’s more of a wideman, not a striker.

I would imagine the review of operations is to ensure that no one person has as much as influence of certain things as dear old Leslie did. I wouldn’t expect Leslie’s replacement will wield as much totalitarian power... this will be a very much revised role with clearly defined parameters.

If Jardim goes to Beijing Guaoan, that frees up Roger Schmidt.

A dispiriting 1-1 or 1-2 reverse.

Very much so... I despise the pr1ck
