Viking Saint

Anyone got a stream??

This, in a nutshell, plus the CB situation, where we are currently playing the bloke who wasn't good enough at the start of the season and it's one area we've majorly recruited in. SR have invested but have been grossly misdirected. £160 million for a club like us is massive and it's effectively been misappropriated. More quality, less quantity. Plus you can always throw in the fact that if Che Adams could convert even 30% of his chances, we'd be comfortably mid-table.

WTAF??

What an absolute fucking farce of a line-up

Plus letting Romeu go without a like-for-like replacement

Suspect Adams will be off too, and don't forget Lyanco

Doesn't Elyounoussi's contract expire this summer or is this just wishful thinking on my part?? '

Punch ups at the training ground?? I'm surprised any of these wankers have got the drive to actually display any aggression whatsoever

Anybody on here had any issues with this skate? He's made comments on various social media outlets that are as far out of order as it gets. Just canvassing. Cheers.

Unfortunately, on form, I'm not feeling inspired.....

Based on what? He's hardly had any game time. Nearly scored against West Ham and like all of our strikers, relies on some decent service, which isn't being provided

Nope, I'm afraid we are down. If we had the quality or nous to win games, we would have done it 30 games ago and not waited until now.

Feels like we've been here before. One of our best players shoehorned in to LB when we've got a LB on the bench. Bednarek doing his usual marking space for a moderate cross. Don't start me on fucking Elyounoussi - I'll drive him back to Norway myself. Starting without a recognised striker up front. It's all self-inflicted wounds. Can't blame Sports Republic, they've been prepared to invest but have been very badly advised by Ankersen who's self-inflated opinion of his own capability and thinking outside the box bullshit has been the single biggest reason on our downfall, that and not signing a proven goalscorer. We won't get relegated on today's showing. Better sides have lost by more to City and for 44 minutes, we did alright. But today, the daylight truly started to appear through the cracks at the foot of the table. To those who keep saying that we have to keep the faith, there needs to be something to believe in, and it's not there, and I've nothing to make me think it's going to mysteriously appear after the last 30 games.

Money well spent

As Brian Clough once said 'that was such a penalty, it was two penalties'

The comebacks on!!

Men against boys unfortunately

Agree. Utter dogshit. And we're starting with him, Walcott and Bednarek - that in itself explains our league position

It's fuck all to do with spirit, it's to do with the fact that we couldn't score in a Bangkok knocking shop with Katie Price on special offer

Starting XI: Bazunu, Maitland-Niles, Bella-Kotchap, Bednarek, Walker-Peters, Lavia, Ward-Prowse [c], Elyounoussi, Walcott, Alcaraz, Kamaldeen. Subs: McCarthy, Ćaleta-Car, Perraud, Diallo, Djenepo, S. Armstrong, Edozie, Mara, Onuachu.

No, he's been as frustrating as he ever is. Gives the ball away regularly and doesn't make any tackles. Made one half decent run today - one.

Looking 60% better already with those two off

Right changes. COYS!!!

Painfully and unacceptably poor. Apart from Lavia, they've all been absolute shit. Alcaraz, Suleman and Onuachu on for Elyounoussi, Armstrong and Mara. We deserve to go down with this shit.

Elyounoussi gives it away again Get him off the fucking pitch
