[Curtis]

I back Frank. Join me.

So you're a Tory now?

Ha well I thought he would do fine tbh, 10th of something. I'm not very partisan with football, I don't think it's worth the hassle, but I really disliked him by the end

I agree about not playing 5 at the back, but playing with no goalkeeper isn't going to help either

FFS how did I leave one out?

 

[Furey1878]

Cheers.

Defensively how did we look? Were villa a massive threat or was it just a couple of dozy mistakes / moments that led to us conceding?

The latter, I would say. McNeil gives the ball away cheaply for the first and to be fair to him Ings did really well with the take and the finish. The second, Onana loses the ball on the half way line and it was 2 v 2.

We looked alright at the back but got done for pace a few times. I imagine balls over the top or in behind will be the tactics for a fair few teams against us this season. We're going to have to play deep because Coady and Tarkowski are slow.

 

[Bebeto]

Not free from blame but the lack of a cf is massive, rondon was prob not fit enough to start.

How can he not be fit to start...he had the entire pre season to get fully fit.

Clueless. Just play 4-2-3-1 like all decent managers. Eff of with 5 defenders.

May get sacked come November I'm afraid. Sucks bcs I like him a lot.

No need for 3 CH today - as our midfield was outnumbered ......

 

[nsno-chris]

3-4-3 will be fine with a proper striker


Stop whinny little bisches

3-4-3 will be fine

Nope. Awful tactics. 2CBs 1RB 1LB, this is modern football.

Hi mate, spurs and Chelsea both play 3-4-3 variation

Is that modern enough

If you are mid table like us, you have to be precise

Anyone who called for a manager to be sacked after two games in an embarrassment. An utterly, cringeworthy embarrassment.

We where wretched under Silva too and guess what? Silva was able to spend money and bring in players and strikers. He wasn't working with one arm tied behind his back due to the mismanagement of others like Lampard is.

What did Benitez bring to the table? Or Silva? Or Koeman? Or BFS? They all made excuses. Maybe they weren't all wrong. Maybe its not all the managers fault.

Benitez brought nothing. Silva had us playing well in a system. Koeman regardless of how much people don't like him, had us playing solidly at home.

Well no, crap teams like us have to be solid at the back to give themselves a chance of nicking a win.

By playing a system the manager wants. Not the fans
