Match Thread EPL Bournemouth (A) Sat January 24th 17:30

[Red Mullet]

How on earth are we losing this, we were all over them.

The decline of the old guard

 

[Woland]

Listen, vvd brain farts are just what we have to accept now as he declines, as we do with salah's poor play.

We are an average team, with an average manager.

Just pointing out Jiminez is older than VVD

 

[dee]

You are right. It would have been nice if the 400m spent in the summer improved depth in any position

You said you’d let that go you bloody fibber

 

[Fabio]

We should easily have a shot on target. Our forwards and wirtz have frittered away great positions.

What we should have done and what we're doing is either tactical or confidence based. Both of which fall on the manager

 

[Mojo]

7 mins between the goals and we played that period with 10 players.
Is Slot deliberately trying to sabotage us?

 

[Farkmaster]

The decline of the old guard

Which we have managed by playing them all the fucking time every game.

 

[Holle]

Just pointing out Jiminez is older than VVD

And better it seems.

 

[Fabio]

You said you’d let that go you bloody fibber

Hey, that's more of a general summer window criticism than focusing on any 1 player

 

[Fabio]

Macca dead

 

[Fabio]

Fucking hell salah

 

[Fabio]

A shot! Not on target but a shot!

 

[binomial]

Gakpo and Salah are the 2 shittest wingers in the league.

 

[Sculptorini]

They'll keep him because we're doing OK in champions league.

 

[ibromurph]

Salah looks old whenever he has to go 1 v 1.

Bringing on Endo was the wrong decision imo. Hasn't got the legs to cover the wide areas. Would have preferred Jones, and Gravy at CB.

 

[Holle]

Gakpo tripping over his own feet.

 

[Hansern]

I’ll be disappointed if Xabi hasn’t replaced Slot in the dugout during half time

 

[dee]

Good guess from Hill that Gakkers would cut inside

 

[refugee]

Bringing on Endo was the wrong decision imo. Hasn't got the legs to cover the wide areas. Would have preferred Jones, and Gravy at CB.

Not to mention his complete lack of match practice

 

[Momo]

I’ll be disappointed if Xabi hasn’t replaced Slot in the dugout during half time

He was getting a Ryanair flight to Liverpool but got turned back because his carry on case was too big.

 

[Sculptorini]

Get Alonso in before we miss the boat!

 

[Farkmaster]

What we should have done and what we're doing is either tactical or confidence based. Both of which fall on the manager

The manager deserves all sorts, but he gave the forwards a platform to do something in this game, I think they got into positions we want them to and they've fucked up individually as well, so has our defense. I mean an aerial ball? Van dijk?

That's Fulham's Raul Jiminez, not Bournemouth's Alex Jiminez.

Have you seen our stats when Gakpo starts?

 

[Farkmaster]

Wirtz has had all sorts of the ball right where he can be dangerous, and bar one ball that gakpo was oblivious to, he's been shit and wasteful.

 

[binomial]

400k a week to play like a cunt.

 

[Skeleton202]

Semenyo scored a goal and we are stucked with gakpo tripping his own foot

 

[tomasjj]

Man completely open on the back post

 

[Holle]

And there's a low block again and we're completely clueless.

 

[ibromurph]

We've played well up until the box.

We need forwards who can beat a man. And we need CBs who aren't injury prone, lazy or tired.

 

[Farkmaster]

Have you seen our stats when Gakpo starts?

I don't know what choice we had totally, given I assume tekkers is being protected.

You won't find me defending slot broadly, or gakpo, but at some point our players have to pull ourselves out of the shit.

And there it is!!
