I was thinking these exact thoughts myself... He needs to be subbed before he gets a second yellow. He's playing like someone's shooting him with a taser.
Not you mate. And I agree we could and should have beaten them, I just don't think the fact we lost means we are 'atrocious' and whatever other descriptions are floating around here tonight.
I'm frustrated, believe me. We have to start scoring some of these chances, especially when we have to work so hard for them. But for some to say we were abysmal is ridiculous.
This is exactly it.
We have a small squad and are so dependent on Schneiderlin for our shape and style of play. Take him and his replacement Cork out of the picture, lose the extremely solid Toby in defence and we are going to find it hard to beat the likes of City, Arsenal and United. But we gave it a good go against the last two.
Why everyone loses their **** when we don't bulldoze every game I just don't know.
Team looks like it has spirit, which is more than can be said of most of this forum. Keep the spirit, get the players back and we'll be winning again.
Enjoy your meltdown everyone, I know you've been longing for it. ****s.
It was. But to read the morons on here you'd think we got beat 10-0 with Forster scoring 5 of them, before a gang of tiny Africans burned down the stadium and killed everyone's puppies.
