Exactly

If we finish 10th or above and have been to a cup final , it is shameful to sack the manager. I understand fans frustrations sitting through 0-0 draws but overall Puel should be allowed to develop the team with his squad. We need a cutting edge and we perhaps will be a very decent side next season. As Souness said the other night, it is the board who sold the players but they wont hold their hands up.

so were we

you just cant help but criticise everything. I didn't think before tonight but I now wonder if you really are a Skate afterall

if we had won you would have said it was against a weak side. You show no balance, just try to unsettle everyone with your intention to destabilise things

I don't think hes going to sack himself

2 penalty misses, so really we should have seen two more wins

blame puel by all means but the board are the ones who have let the players go and not replace the goals lost. Go back to the preseason threads and see the posters on here warning about the lack of firepower.

awa on business and alking to fans from other clubs and they are in disbelievement that we are sitting 8th and thinking of getting rid of the manger. 'What do we expect; was the comment

football cannot be scintillating unless you have that style of player. Romeau JWP and Davis do not know how to play that way

the reason fans have not taken to him is that he doesn't juggle and crack jokes during interviews. If he told the fans how great they are that would help him as well. His English was poor but is improving, Ian surprised the club didn't use Black to do the interviews a bit more

apparently we have a quality 25 man PL squad lol

and if he does you cannot complain about who comes in

I understand your sarcasm, no doubt valid but if such things are being dished out what else that should not be given out also is on the lists. If we are to pay more tax, then at least don't waste it. Hence my point earlier, it is not about giving more tax it is trusting those who dish the taxes out. How about a consultant who knew that an op should not be on the NHS but told the person not to worry that they would slip it through (fact not hearsay)

I read (I cant recall if it was on here) that we give out nit combs and suncream on the NHS!!!! Perhaps the staff need to be a little less keen to dish these things out.

Does Diane Abbot do your economical calculations? That's it borrow borrow borrow, we did it before and we know what that brings us. The nation is at a crucial stage in its life, we are about to go into the unknown regarding our financial future and what Global companies want to stay and then you advocate taxing those companies more!!! We needto encourage them to stay to employ our people not make our goods even more expensive to our markets abroad

VAT is not on food clothes books and essentials, it is on take away food, cars, TV's ,mobile phones etc that are not essentials to life I do concede that rentsetc are too high, but of course some of that is due to Gordon Brown raiding the pensions and so people then invested in rental property to supplement what they lost. I personally would not be a good landlord as I couldn't take high rents off young struggling families but there are many who have/want to, t have a secure retirement

no doubt those top 100 have always been there. They have the money and power to move to wherever they are welcomed. The Corbyn way is hit the people who will generate wealth for jobs and the nations financial health. Now I think you would find that most wealthy would be happy to pay more if they could trust who is spending it. Personally I want the people who deserve it to get it, but ill be buggered if it is to help people who don't want to work have a bit more spending money to laugh at the working population. I also cherish the NHS but throwing more money at it like has been done for the last 20 years does not make it leaner and more efficient

Please quantify what rich is? If you think about it, anybody in this country is in the top 10% wealthiest people on earth. Is rich having Sky, a washing machine, a TV or being able to afford a takeaway meal every week, or get a Costa? The word rich is bandied about but I'm not sure what really does qualify the meaning. Is it somebody who earns a bit more than the next person, and so they should pay more?

so AR10 is not a fan and has been at various clubs. A player perhaps? joined on here July 2016.

if you think we should get rid of the manager to see if Jrod is still likely ever to be a decent player you have lost it

of course it depends what the ingredients the chef has to work with. If you have the finest fillet steak you can make the most wonderful Chateau Briand, if you have brisket.... Mane and the like would make the manager change the way we play,

cynical I know but increasing a contract is better for club and player. The player gets a wage increase and security,the club get a higher transfer fee when they are sold

when I'm doing it, it is the highest Whitey

you are correct, I don't so often due to business commitments. How can you play 3 when they have not been available? I do get the problem of the midfield, Davis is a good servant and is tidy until we go on the attack. JWP does some delightful crosses but there is ever a forward or midfielder in the box to take advantage, until Gabbiadini arrived. Do you agree had Long been more prolific earlier in the season things would have looked up? He just doesn't finish the chances he has had and so the team are frustrated and become disjointed. I watched many games last season and the football was poor but Pelle or Mane would score and gloss over a mainly possession based game all in the midfield. We havent a squad that is any better than most in the middle of the league and that is due to constantly diluting the quality of the team
