    We won the league playing 4231 last year.

    And Forrest played 4231 today. Maybe their players just put in more effort.

    I've asked a few times in the matchthread whose at fault for our 1st goal conceded today. Yet to be answered...

    If Slots sacked, the players can take a big slice of responsibility for his sacking.
    They'll go down as chelsea/manu like which is a crying shame, as thats damning.

    That’s the manager… But then again it’s been well over a year since we had one.

    Diaz was out partying whilst Jotas funeral was ongoing.
    If thats the sort of payback we get for the club supporting him though his families difficulties, fuck him.

    I still love Suarez.

    I think his credit rating just dropped to be B+.

    The way things are going, he's going to out-Amorim Amorim. He's going to stick to this bloody 4231 that noone seems to understand, or stay fit long enough to get used to. Unlike Reuben, we don't have the benefit of 18 months to hit rock bottom before eventually buying a couple of players that actually fit the system and have experience in the Prem.

    We've spent 450 million quid and only 60 odd million of that is a fairly guaranteed starter.
    Kerkez - out of his depth waste of money
    Isak - never needed after Hugo
    Wirtz - skillful, but too lightweight
    Frimpong - also skillful, but made of glass and actually tiny - is that a good fit for the Prem?

    That was caused by the needless change of formation and overplaying

    We don’t pick up, everyone’s trying to be in space to receive the ball to make more nothing passes and there aren’t enough picking up and so we aren’t fighting and winning battles and creating intensity through that and great chain reaction pressing and counter pressing and movement

    The 433 pressing and counter pressing system creates all the elements of play we’re now missing through not playing it

    No and it’s even more fucking annoying as given real money Jurgen never bought flops and they never gave it him to buy top end players except for when we sold Coutinho

    Jurgen would make all those players top top players and run through brick walls for him and each other
