It's a conspiracy. The players have united and are trying oust tyrant timothy.

Today's first goal, dummy from Verts let it run through his legs then Kaboul with the cheeky back heel.

Vs Chelsea, an off balance Verts plays an awesome through ball to Eto'o on his weaker foot!

Naughton with the presence of mind to leave the header for Soton's first, the equisite touch with the outside of the boot to lay off the Soton player. At the heart of everything in that game.

The players are showing their quality just in a different more deviant and sinister way.
 
In carryball, the offensive coordinator actually does sit up "in the sky" to make his recommendations based on the defensive shape via radio.

Rose, Naughton, and Dawson aren't good enough it's as simple as that - they've all made horrendous mistakes this season that have lead to multiple goals.

Compounding, this Verts and Kaboul have made schoolboy errors that, again have, led directly to us conceding. You can accept defeat. But when the players are making the same mistakes over and over again and handing the points to the opposition, it's not fucking good enough!
 
We have actually had tactics?


"We attempted to pull off an inverted backbone but in the process disappeared up our own arsehole and entered the seventh dimension. I know it was the seventh dimension as the top four were already occupied and we had no chance of getting into the fifth or sixth, which was a massive ask, according to my predecessor."
 
That's what happens when there is no confidence. People fuck up. Players like rose and naughton would be out of there if they fucked up like that but we have no choice these cunts are 1st team. It's Austin and edinbugh all over again, Dawson is going all Colin calderwood
 
What we need is to spend a couple of games in defensive mode to get the confidence back. Yesterday, if Timmy wanted us to shut up shop for the first half hour like he kept saying why push so high up the pitch? The back four shouldn't have passed the halfway line at any point, Bentaleb should have been essentially a third centreback just slightly advanced and the rest should have stayed tight.

Instead we play the usual high line which gives their speedy attackers acres to play with, up against our defenders who have the turning circle of the QE2.

Our tactics encourage individual errors.

What the hell is going on, can someone please enlighten me?
How many more basic fuck-ups and calamituous mistakes can these guys make?
How many more 'gift' goals can we give the opposition?
It's seriously getting beyond a joke now.
 
Generally it is too easy to score against us right now. Southampton and Liverpool scored 6 goals, didn't really have to work that hard for any of them. This is the problem.

Imagine if we could have AVB managing us defensively and Sherwood managing us offensively. And Tim could sit up in the stand and "get a good view" whilst AVB is down in the technical area, fist pumping and shit. We'd win the fucking league.

(We'd get relegated wouldn't we :chadliblow:)

I will give Walker and Naughton credit that they show effort, where the fuck is Rose he never runs back hardly bothers to put in a tackle, either he is really unfit or really lazy and if he is really unfit/lazy why run up the pitch, stay in defense.

Read somewhere we'd made 17 (leading to goals) this season, wonder how they tot up against individual players? Imagine guess the share would be Naughton, Lloris, Dawson, Kaboul, Walker, Sandro, sure there's others too...
