Match Thread UCL Qarabag (H) Wed 28 January

[Momo]

The happy clappers in the ground who kick off at those who boo need to stay away. This is fucking low. Really low. Unless the match goers either stay away or you hear the discontent then Slot will just carry on dragging us down.

The game will be secondary to how a lot of fans will want to express themselves.

To the team.

Mamardashvili
Frimpong
Endo
Van Dijk
Robbo
Gravy
Jones
Slobs
Salah
Ekitike
Wirtz

He will probably try to sneak in Gakpo.

I just don’t care at this point. I’m going through the motions. So will the players on Wednesday.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Ya kicking off at fans booing at home is far worse than booing itself.


We need to automatic qualification so hopefully the 4 days rest means we aren’t very tired again and Hugo can start.

If there's doubts about Ekitike, I'd rather he was saved for the league. If much rather some momentum there than the CL.

Need to win this so there's no doubts about avoiding the playoff round. Last thing this team - or me as a viewer - needs is two more fixtures.

The rest is needed too!

God knows I need a break from this. And I haven't even been able to watch many of our matches this season, other than on my phone at work.

A big season of transition and performances not meeting expectations.

Pretty much everything that could go against us has.

I suppose I want to really see if Slot can start doing something in the league a lot more than what he can do in the CL, yeah, we don't need two more games, especially with this light a squad, but we also need to start winning some games in the league. Not sure we can do both.

And why haven't the performances met expectations, Dreamie? Who is responsible for those performances?

And pack in the woe is us and everything has gone against us. We're lucky to even be on 36 points in the league.

Because fans had unrealistic expectations.

 

[Farkmaster]

Because fans had unrealistic expectations.

I didn't. But like, out of Bournemouth, Burnley, Fulham, Leeds twice, Sunderland, how many points is unrealistic. We got 5/18.

Their average league position is 13th. Our form is mid table. That's why we can't compete.

We aren't going to be in the champions league next year.

Is wanting more than this unrealistic? We aren't a functional team, we aren't a professional outfit.

 

[Fabio]

Everyone expected a drop off.

To this fucking level? Fuck no
