rbcuk Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Just now, Genie said: Defense and midfield were ok, not appalling. Up front we’re completely useless. Absolutely zero threat. Liverpool bring on a kid and he scores. This is why the summer recruitment for strikers was incompetent, what we have are probably the worse in the league... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 £145m and we don’t have anything non-shit on the bench to replace our exhausted first 11. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Having said that, for all of the talk of poor recruitment strategy, who was behind the signing of Jota if not Smith? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep Then add in has samatta actually touched the ball? Or vassilev? But it's the lack of subs that killed us... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does the odd good performance prove we are under performing but the majority bad ones don't. Makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLDVILLAN Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 In all reality who wants this team to stay up and play the same shite with the same half arsed players,as you have seen from today the players can play when they want too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Jota was not the sub to make, before or after the goal. Nakamba to give us more cover defensively against their new front line, and Sama to make something of the chances that fell to others whod wasted them. Sadly since the changes were made after we went behind, nakamba then offers little to us and our chances dried up as we no longer had Liverpool needing to find a goal. Its all about doing the right thing at the right time. Smith didn't react to what Liverpool did. It was a criminal waste of a position we had fought extremely hard to be in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Samatta is another wesley. Both absolute garbage. Suso needs to be sacked 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith can’t win. He’s been dealt a rough hand with the poor recruitment strategy and I genuinely don’t think anybody could keep this squad up. If you really think the recruitment is the issue then the buck still stops with DS. He is quoted as saying he has final say on players coming in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa87 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 This has been a good performance. They are fighting. No quality in the final third will ultimately mean we are down. We had to do something about the goals conceded and overall I actually think we gave looked solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
