What's gone wrong? We've replaced a decent nucleus with a couple of clowns not up to scratch when it comes to wearing our shirt.
We've become obsessed with signing the real deal instead of unearthing a gem. Lo Celso for nearly £60m when it shouldn't have been £20m a season before thus £40m we could have spent better.
We try and plan too long term with our signings, when it needs to be a mix of short and long term.
We are trying the same things we did before, only this time with no bite or desire. Take Jorginhos pass yesterday for Abrahams goal. Why doesn't Winks even attempt to do that sometimes? If that were a midfielder of ours I can guarantee that wouldn't have been attempted, it would have been a bail out ball backmto the defence and then across to the left, up the line a bit, back to defence and then across to the right. We waste possession.
No creative bite in our game. Today I saw Aurier intercept a ball and instead of pinging a first time ball down the line to tell his teammate where he wanted them to go and with zip and a desire to make something happen he took a touch, passed it to Sissoko who failed to control it and gave away a free kick. We don't create chances as we don't impulsively have a desire to win.
Our players aren't enjoying their football. We are too drilled on fitness (ironic with the amount of injuries we get) and we are too pre processed in our game. We don't press withndesire, just an effort to, we don't have players who want it, we don't have swagger, we have a balloon that's half deflated with our bodies, our artfulness and our minds.
Prime example is the Vardy goal earlier. Genuinely how many of our players would try and even attempt this let alone pull it off:
Look how bright and sprightly it is. Defenders don't think like attackers, hence why they defend. Our attackers don't exploit their natural attacking mindsets enough, they don't let anything flow it's always pass, control, head up look who's free and pass. We play right into other teams hands and due to this we seldom have the chance creations others deemed inferior to us have. Wolves had 25 shots away at Woolwich yesterday.....25 SHOTS! I'm tired of the clubs excuses it's time it gets its balls back. No more shit about tough preseasons, no more negative energy.
Poch talks all about the universal energy yet he constantly acts heavy and down. Bit hypocritical that and I'm sure it affects the players.
Too sluggish, too daft, too docile, too sad and emotional about itself, I want the players to come up with tricks and to use their imaginations. It's an art football and it's slowly become a cattle market, one pass after the other, same time again tomorrow. He needs to unshackle them, let the attackers be attackers and the defenders be defenders. The manager has got too smart and sometimes that makes you more foolish.
We are so afraid of losing that we don't allow ourselves the freedom required to win. We are an extremely disappointing team at the moment and we've allowed many teams to overtake us due to our stubbornness to run the clubs transfers as a way to regenerate funds that can get reinvested. It's a bit of a dead team ours now, we lack real verve and togetherness so don't expect it to change anytime soon.
