I think I started this thread beforeWell not really but these are just some observations i've had for a while now, some i've stated previously but i'm going to list them all anyway;
1. We bought to many tank like players and not enough attack minded players, i've no idea why we signed Paulinho AND Capoue when we had Dembele and Sandro already.
2. Lennon is twice the player Townsend is and I hope the latter starts on the bench from now on.
3. Lamela needs game time until he comes good, we must put trust in him.
4. Lloris is nowhere near as good as some spurs fans believe he is.
5. Soldado does not fit our style and does not work hard enough for the team.
6. Jan Vertonghan has regressed this season much the same way his fellow countryman Vermaelen did before him.
7. We sold Caulker and kept flailing calamity Dawson, someone needs to pay for this huge mistake.
8. In Chadli we were flogged a dud.
9. Lewis Holtby is not good enough for what we're trying to achieve.
10. Replacing your best players is not easy to do and it's clear AVB hasn't managed to do it.
Kaboul is shite too,always was before we flogged him and after we bought him back
Love dawsons commitment but hes not good enough
Oh and how can you right off chadli after a about 3 games is amazing
Just look at Friedel vs Newcastle for the goalDon't agree with 4/6/8.
Lloris was poor today but how many times has he saved us this season?
Vertonghen is being played out of position all the time. He has a clueless player in Dawson next to him and either Naughton or Rose on the other who are nowhere near good enough.
Haven't seen enough of Chadli but 8m does seem a bump for what looks like an average player.

The annoying thing is, all the new signings are good players but playing them out of position and in the wrong system is only one persons fault.
I would be loyal too if I got paid tens of thousands every week to play for a club that are miles above where I should besaid Dawson is a liability for a while now, all people say to me is 'well atleast he's loyal' yeah but you can't mark a player well loyalty or stop a ball with loyalty now, can you?
