[Nigels Tackle]

joey...

[Dameerto]

Thanks Joey. Studs up.

[stevefromdonny]

We just need to up the pace and make sure we make our passes count

[blues2win]

Pellegrini's job is to get the best out of his players. He clearly isn't and he must take a large share of the blame for our shitty performances. It's as simple as that.

[Saul Goodman]

Two fucking near misses. My god

[stevefromdonny]

Can we not do a different corner

[carl_feedthegoat]

Clichy is fucking pants

A disgrace actually.

[Moonchesteri]

Note how having Fernando & Fernandinho together has made no fucking difference whatsoever so far. That's because yhe problem is, & always has been, a team playing badly. If we were full tilt we could play Silva as def mid on his own & beat this lot.

Agreed. Not to mention that we are now playing with just one striker & 5 in the middle. 4-5-1 or 4-2-3-1 (or 4-4-1-1), up to you how you wish to look at it...but we still are as vulnerable in midfield imo.
And equally ineffective in attact too.

Not the formation. More down to our form & now that our form is shit, the effort our lads are willing to put in

The ugliest win will do here today and probably the most welcome internationl break. Think Pellegrini needs to take a bit of a break himself over the international break, he looks worn out and out of ideas

He's done exactly what everyone has been asking for. What ideas is he supposed to have ?

How has he done exactly what everyone is asking for. Just sticking the players on the pitch is one thing, how they set up and play is another. He is slow to make changes when the game is crying out for them, he has picked the wrong starting 11 on a few occasions. What are we doing in training that we look so sloppy and unfamiliar to last season.

I really like the positive, confident Pellegrini of last season, this season is a real test and he should be asking a lot of questions and the break might help him reevaluate and find the answers

Their chances are coming from wide so you could argue it has made a difference, we've no Milner to shut down his flank and make the fullback look good.

[Saul Goodman]

Get Fernandinho and Nasri off for Lampard and Milner

[FA cup winners 2006]

Is Mike Dean actually favouring us or are we so used to been screwed by refs, he is just having a good game and doing everything fairly

[blues2win]

A bit better. A spell of good possession.

[stevefromdonny]

Why oh fucking why are we passing fucking back. No other team passes back more then us. We need a quick ball played to wings or through centre.

[dick dastardley]

Our midfield are all over the place, why don't we stick fernando in front of the back four,and just protect our defenders.

[Dameerto]

Here comes big Ed, give us a goal.

[stevefromdonny]

See what I mean, 3passes from there own half and nnearly score, us it would take 20 passes and we still be in our own half

He has got very little wrong so far.

[carl_feedthegoat]

THAT 32 MILLION LUMP OF SHIT NEEDS TO BE FUCKED OFF...WORSE FUCKIGN PLAYER WE HAVE EVER EVER HAD AT THE BACK..AN ABSOLUTE CALAMITY.

Give him time mate ffs.

Name ONE defender that has looked savage for us this season. Not even Vinny ticks that box. And it's no wonder.

Same thing as the season after we won the league 2012. No consistent back line. Not even three games in a row. It's ridiculous.

You want a young defender with a huge price tag to adapt to the premier league, you slowly bed him in to an other wise solid and consistent back line.

We have done nothing of the sort.

HES FUCKIGN SHIT !!!!! SHIT !!! CANNOT FUCKIGN DO ANYTHING RIGHT !!! DOING MY HEAD IN WATCHING THE USELESS LUMP!!
