Sanchez doesn't deserve the boos. He didn't pick himself. He can't be blamed for the boards incompetence / reluctance to move on inadequate players

Maybe not but I for one welcome the fans becoming ruthless with these players and making it clear we won't accept them being around anymore. Nothing against Davinson and felt bad for him as well on an individual level but this is the fault of the board at the club for keeping him here for so long despite it being very, very obvious for ages that he isn't close to good enough.

This is the only way. Like with Ndombele, once the fans turn against them then they usually get forced out of the club as there is no choice. Call it cruel, call it toxic, call it whatever you like. The club is reaping what it has sowed, they've made the fans so fucking sick & tired of watching the same incompetent footballers every year that the fans have turned on them.
 
The problem here wasn't the second half. We've actually gone at it pretty well second half, 70% possession, 14 shots to 4, 1.28 to 0.27 XG.

The problem was our reaction to going 1-0 up when, as ever, we completely shat the bed and shrank from the game for the next 30 minutes, completely stopped playing and invited them to to play in our half, and again, as ever, did this with such insipid fucking passivity that it was suicidal.

We seem utterly in capable of learning - or to be more accurate the coaches we've had all season seem incapable of correcting this collective utter failure. We should be playing like we are losing when we are just 1 up, until we get to 2 and 3 up, then shell it our maybe. But possession will always be the safest way of protection.

Southampton, Everton(with 10 fucking men) and today Bournemouth. Exactly the same issue every time. Score a goal, stop playing, shit pants, stand off, no aggression, invite pressure we aren't remotely capable of coping with and inevitably concede goals. 7 points s dropped from three games against utter dogshit teams.

The booing of Sanchez was fucking wanky. He's a shit footballer, but he did nothing wrong today. Porro and Romero were far more culpable. Kulusevski once again did absolutely fuck all. Hojbjerg...don't me started on that cunt.

Making fans pay the highest prices for the shittest football is going to give them a sense of entitlement.

Football in general has been trying to force out the old school support for many years now and they are reaping what they have sewn.

I have no sympathy.
 
There is so much to get upset and angry about, but the most disappointing thing today was the booing of sanchez. He bore the brunt it all. He didn’t mean to make mistakes. He just isn’t good enough and that’s not his fault. Just like Emerson and many others. They didn’t ask for a contract, we offered.

There’s only one direction where the blame should go !

It’s gonna get worse, a hell of a lot worse aswell
