Our best performance this season may have actually been losing 1-0 to Man City 🤣

 

United made it so easy for about 30 mins that it’s hard to read anything into that game. 

[Kasey Keller]

Get in the bin albrighton

[Cropwellfox]

Bottom 6 awaits. The pre 2010 order of Tigers being good and City largely shite seems to be on its way to being restored.

Really sad to say but this squad needs breaking up - Saw a post about palace and it’s spot on. There’s a malaise around this group. Only really decent performance was against man United but actually how much of that was them being awful.

£8m a year Brendan gets paid. £8m to rely on Youri Tielemans and his GK/Striker to bail him out week after week. 

[Webbo]

It's been men against boys. I think Amartey is going to be sent off so we might as well go 4 at the back and put an extra man in midfield. 

[blabyboy]

Soumare off -> Maddison on

Barnes or Lookman off -> Nacho on

 

hold Daka in reserve... just go all out.

[Switzfox]

Brendan has tried to match their formation from the off except we lost the one man who can keep the ball for us to injury, so we needed an extra midfielder from the start to try and also Nacho for some presence up front.   With Chelsea having loads more of the ball and pressing us bigtime we need to go long sometimes and hold it up.  It just keeps coming back.  Lookman has done ok but I would not have started him or Barnes today.  Soumare has been awful.  Jogging about when we lose the ball every time.  No fight or energy in him.  And we conceded the same goal we have conceded 10 times this season already.  Fed up.

[lgfualol]

Bring on Nacho. Take off Barnes, we cant keep building the team around him when he's had 1 good game this season. 

 

Honestly what a mess

Daka and Kelechi on... I'd rather go down 0-5 whilst having a fvcking go for once

With KDH. 

[Tom12345]

This is embarrassing. Relegation standard. Zero threat upfront. Barnes doesnt get the ball enough. Where is Nachos when you need him.

 

At the least, Man Utd would be crazy to come after Rodgers. Who wants this kind of football?

Disorganised is the word in English 😉

'Unorganised is (of a person) poorly organised, lacking the ability to organise while disorganised is lacking order or organisation; confused; chaotic.'

 

So both then...

Take off barnes and add someone in midfield that can go past a gentle jog. 

Nope, ain’t got none of them

Just embarrassing, slowly losing the will to watch us each week. Clueless.

I've said this for a while. Winning the fa Cup was amazing but for nearly 12 months I haven't enjoyed our games. I'm becoming really disillusioned with it and it's because I know this manager and group of players are miles better than they are showing. Weve had worse times and worse players/managers but in the past we've almost just accepted being shit for most of the years between O'Neill and Pearson but this group of players and manager are as infuriating as I've known for a long time. It's just horrible to watch us. I'm not even watching today as my sky isn't working but I can imagine how shocking we will be. Same shit every week. I don't expect us to win any game anymore, doesn't matter who we are playing 

[RonnieTodger]

Shit team, shit fans, shit line up  can’t be arsed

[jmono84]

The front three are pressing but it’s pointless. Literally wasting energy.

 

Press as a team or not at all, that space we’re giving Chelsea on the middle is schoolboy football.

[Kasey Keller]

Chilly next scorer just to add more fvcking misery.

Mendy hasn’t had a shot at him.

[foxes_rule1978]

This is why I prefer our games on Sundays now, means it doesn’t ruin all my weekend 

[Sunbury Fox]

We are leaky at the back, disorganised and lacking any threat up front. An embarrassing 45 minutes. 

[oxtonfox]

We're lucky to be only 2-0 down at half time, but this game, in my view, is gone already. There is no way Tuchel and Chelsea will let us get back in and they will get a few more I'm sure. Serious questions need to be answered now. 

[Suzie the Fox]

I'm usually one of the optimistic ones on this board, but that was rubbish. Lost for words really, what exactly is going wrong, apart from the obvious 'defending set pieces.' 

 

No clue what BR will do at half time but he has to make changes early on and ngl but certain players need to take some responsibility for this performance and step the **** up. 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Game over, we'll huff and puff in the second half to no avail. Then the manager will say how "pleased" and "proud" he is and that we'll "work hard" before the next game. 

 

Getting oh so predictable and very boring.

[glebe_sydneyfox]

2-0 is flattering to us right now.

Shambles

Need to take either Amartey or Evans off before they are sent off. Maddison and KDH on. Spot on though with wingers off - no point in playing wingers they aren’t getting anywhere near the game

Crap half - subs incoming at 69 minutes

Nah. Maddison will come on at half time. 

[Tanya]

A rare bit of positivity; I like Lookman. I'd be signing him permnamently if the price is right. Him and Daka look like prudent signings.

 

The other three look completely off it. 

 

I remain Rodgers in but this form line is so worrying. It's like everyone has lost their zip. We can't rely on Fofana and Justin to improve this.
