With a bit of luck Bobby might sell him and buy someone else with the money and actually give him a game

...someone who could be trusted to come on for two minutes and not try and help the opposition to three points would be a big step up.

Should have been made 15 minutes earlier, brought on a known beaut for 1 minute, who did the predictable.

Poor man management. Mirallas takes the lions share of the blame of course but it was stupid management too.

Questionable tactics mate but no blame should be apportioned to Martinez for Mirallas being a twonk.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Just finished watching the game as I was out earlier.
Terrible first half, terribly late subs. Kone, McCarthy and Lukaku shouldn't have been on the field anywhere near as long as they were.

Not impressed by Martinez at all for this game. Treated Swansea like they were Chelsea or City and tried to nullify them rather than beat them.

Defence played well, Galloway did very well as did Stones.

 

[Tommy Chong]

We should have won!!! Ffs... Feels worse then a defeat!

And Mirallas?! What an absolute tit!

Someone who could play for 90 mins and help put the ball in the back of the net.... It was a stupid thing he did though

 

[Ash Woods]

Galloway Jags both played amazing

Stones was incredible one of the most solid defensive displays ive seen in my life

Barkley was great and is constantly getting better

Barry was good

The rest of them?? Poor decisions and pointless mistakes

Since when is Mirallas getting sent off predictable...

I disagree, if your going to bring a sub on on 90 mins away from home at 0-0 it has to be a defender, bringing Mirallas on was pointless and just made him fume, put yourself in Mirallas' boots, would you not be miffed? I would

 

[Haston]

Mirallas is a highly paid, professional footballer. Whether he's brought on for 30 mins or 2 mins, he still has a job to do for the team. He hasn't done himself any favours

 

[Boss_Blue]

put yourself in Mirallas' boots, would you not be miffed? I would

So would you then conspire to get yourself sent off?

Martinez inner monologue: 'I'd better not bring Mirallas on for Barkley who looks like he might be limping just in case he decides to get himself sent off... ah sod it I will put him on anyway...

...FFS Kev!!'



Jesus Christ.

Even when started, Mirrallas doesn't really finish enough games because he's very rarely 100% fit.

 

[Alex Hindmarsh]

So I see people are giving McCarthy a beating despite him putting in a very solid performance. I'm not sure what some of you want from a defensive midfielder. You, me, an every other person who's ever seen him play know that he's not gonna nutmeg someone and drive a shot home from 30 yards.

He does his job, and does his job very well. Get over it.

 

[Ring master]

Its been good that we are comming to the end of septemeber playing the teams we have,only losing to the leaders who have won every game, without conceeding before west ham game right now,we just need to keep it going,learn to shoot a bit more,when we get into the final 3rd and we will do well

Jamo is a world class talent.

Barkley was so much better then Shelvey

Roy Hodgeson probably disagrees!
