What are these long balls to? Jebus...

The defensive issues where not rectified in the summer and the goal scorer was removed.

We are a sitting duck until January, one stacked with a million similar midfielders.

We need an astonishingly good January window thanks to the mess Koeman made in the Summer.

Absolutely. The summer of misspending has basically ruined our season. It was like no thought went into constructing a team, and strengthening the weaknesses. It was more about just collecting expensive players, in the hope thet they would just "gel".

The players are not good enough. It is that simple. God knows who thought Rooney was an ample replacement for Lukaku or Williams for Stones.

that pass from Williams then, jesus

 

[Tin-Tin]

That used to nobody on the wings that we are not using the wingers at all.

So it turns out it wasn't Koeman's fault...

yeah, cause it should be enough with a couple of days for a new manager to get sorted out new tactics.

 

[ilikecheese]

Looks like I picked a good match to miss.

*sigh

 

[ToffeeDan]

Keane for Williams. HT. PLEASE

So it turns out it wasn't Koeman's fault...

Kin'ell fella we are away to one of the best sides in the league with a manager who's worked with the players for five minutes. Let's have a little bit of faith, it's the first half with plenty of time yet. Yes we need to improve big time if we want to get anything tonight but we have decent options from the bench.

He looks a little one paced, and that pace is slow.

 

[PeregrineT]

Great work from Rooney and Wiliams there to turn an attack into a Chelsea counter. Wow.

 

[brieverton]

Criminal our recruitment policy that’s the only description for it.

 

[Saint Domingo]

If your CBs can’t make a 5 yard pass you can’t expect to go to Chelsea and play them off the park.

 

[Kantareller]

Baines is finished for me, sadly

Has been a long time

 

[Tubey]

Please get Williams off. Please.

I'd honestly have Niasse as a centre half instead.
