This is what we're dealing with here.

At no point has Titus Bramble been good enough for England. This in an Era when England had Terry and Ferdinand.

The only consistency he shows is consistently chatting crap.

'Kevin Mirallas is a vital part of our team' makes him sign a new contract then barely plays him for half a season.

Lennon - took him from the bench at Spurs to warm our bench instead

Denied Naismith a summer move to Norwich, then proceeded to not play him, then let him go in Jan and doesn't want to replace him

Absolutely crazy player management. It seems that decent players in their prime just aren't valued. Fully expect to see Gibson Mirallas and Oviedo shown the door at some point. All good players.
 
Betting guy on TalkSport doesn't even think we're underachieving and that we're being harsh. Long way to go before the media really get behind this

CBA with the media getting behind it. The fans and players should be the ones doing the talking and results are dictating that.

Rather he would just quit if we got beat by Newcastle tbh - season would be in a nose dive if that happens.

If there's no takeover, there will be no media pressure or a sacking until we get relegated. We need it, or it won't happen

everyone he has sold so far has been the correct decision

Depends on your point of view. Has Kone been more useful than Jelavic would have been? Who is replacing Naismith? If no one comes in that's a terrible decision.

It's not so much the sales he's made (because he's been in the unique position not to have to sell anyone so hasn't made that many) it's the sales that are to come and also his inability to effectively replace Osman Pienaar Howard.

This ^ all day long.

Barkley wandering around not closing or barely attempting to get a challenge in, does my nut in.

We sit off concede ground, don't put pressure on the ball, which allows the opposition time and space and then any form of decent ball cuts through us, it's absolute basics.

Compare the work rate of Leicester for example to our laid back "go 'ed then" approach.

Last night was a game were we needed to leave everything on the pitch, those players came off with plenty left in the tank. And that's down to his wretched philosophy.

Spot on mate. It's glaringly obvious as well and opposition teams have been onto it for ages. Press Everton and they give up possession and don't give the ball away too cheaply as you will have all the time you need to pick a pass.

It's basic stuff
