Sorry Ange were too helter skelter mate. Too many times this season weve conceded terrible goals. Limped past sheff utd and luton. Shocking. Need to go mate.

Ange obviously takes the lion's share of the blame for how we set up but I do think he's inherited a mess of a forward line. He hasn't helped by adding equally flakey Johnson and Werner to it tbf.
We probably do have the 6th/7th best group of attackers in the league so we shouldn't really expect to finish higher than that. Not a single one of them strikes fear into the opposition. Even United you worry about Rashford on his day, Newcastle Isak, Villa Watkins but I genuinely don't think teams have that worry with us.
We still live on the glory days of Son but he's essentially useless outside of counter-attacks and someone like Kane to put the ball on a plate.

I managed to fuck up by thinking the pub near to my apartment was showing the game. It only has BT sports.
Am sat quietly having a pint, having given up on walking around in the pissing rain to find a pub showing it.
Best decision I’ve made in many years by the sound of it. Having to put up with the dog farting and smelling wet is much better than watching us get humiliated by that bunch of cunts.

where were the 2 CBs when the ref signal kulu - non penalty - check the replay
We need the Levy out chants to start again.
Too many cunts in our fan base let him off the hook with the appointment of Postecoglou which was bizarre in itself.
Nothing changes until he finally fucks off

I think we started well and the lads have brought a good level of effort. But the set piece goals have killed the game, Woolwich simply aren’t leaving any spaces now. They have the game won.
Ange can be as flippant as he likes but our defending on set pieces will get him the sack if it doesn’t improve. We look like we will concede from every single one, any decent manager should be able to sort that. A team that can’t deal with a basic ball in the air is not going to win anything or achieve anything.

I can’t understand why pushing Romero in the back…..as he headed against the post…..wasn‘t a penalty and when the hell is this backing into Vicario at corners going to be sorted? What the hell is Angeball…..reach the penalty box and keep passing it all directions except towards the goal.
Teams have just worked us out, sit deep and let us do fuck all with the ball making backwards & sideways passes on the edge of box, then either ping a long ball forward for a massive overload or just wait for the gift of an easy corner/free kick goal.
No Plan B, the second half will be the exact same.

Isn't this what people wanted? "Beautiful" football
Yet Kulu keeps trying to float balls in to him FFS
In some ways strange game, I didn’t expect us to have so much ball and so much territory, but in other ways not so strange in that our firwards stop every attack, every time they’ve been in our half they’ve scored and our defensive set pieces are fucking piss weak.

mind you - ange signed both BJ and Werner - specifically
The club is rotten from top to bottom
No tactical work according to Dier and no set piece work - since we don’t have a coach for it. Shambolic is right - WTF is happening here!
Say what you want about the performance and moments; but that's not true.
Or barring the Offisde goal they have just picked us off , they know we are weak on corners and scored 2 - it’s almost like Lego head has a plan and the team are executing it ! Still it’s a funny old game - that goal allowed to stand at 1-1 and we probably score another straight after
