This Season has been a perfect storm of crapness.
. Great start
. Injury nightmares (but it will be ok when they return..)
. Benitez making multiple baffling decisions
. Not sacking Benitez earlier when it was clear he was done
. Giving Benitez full control of footballing managers…then sacking off the manager a few days later
. Sacking off Digne…then sacking off the manager a few days later
. The pointless El Ghazi loan!!!
. Employing Lampard on the last day of the window and a mad rush for arguably a player we didn’t need in dele
. Try to bed in a new system when we are desperately in the muck, with players who are not up to the job.
If we survive it will just be through a massive stroke of luck.
I still can’t get over the El Ghazi move…arguably he is a fifth choice winger - after grey,gordon, richarlison, Townsend, iwobi…WHAT. WAS. THE POINT. I doubt he will see a minute. All at the time when we are desperately short of a decent centre back, left back cover and a defensive mid.
Last night we had Rondon,tosun,delph, Davies, gbamin, doucoure , mykolenko all not in the squad. The squad is bloated and got a ridiculous lack of balance to it.
