Weird thing is, it is the exact same tactic we tried against City away this season and we won 4-0. We perfected it and I said at the time, we look so good when we do it. Then all of a sudden we become so bad at it. I just dont get it. How can we be so good at something but also so bad at something.We've had a few matches lately where we thankfully haven't done it, but now, away to the best team in the league, we start faffing about again. I just can't wrap my head around it. Why keep on trying something we have mostly (80%) failed at for two years now? It's just baffling. Clearly a tactic. Bodø Glimt is obviously a much inferior team to Liverpool, but we should not do this brick against them either. Suicidal.
The Europa League - it's the only explanation
Thought Kinky would have started todayVicario's overall decision making and demeanor continue to concern me going intoThursday...
And IIRC at the time, Guardiola had only lost 1 once in something like 16/17 finals, and that was to Mourinho. It literally made no sense to sack at that precise time, fair dos after the final, but crazy to sack a 'serial winner' days before a final
If Levy fired Ange on Monday, I just could not see a way that it would make the current situation any worse.
Spot onWe were always gonna lose today. For lots of reasons. But there are ways to lose games. That’s wasn’t it. An absolute embarrassment to our club. It doesn’t compute for me that we’ll win the Europa after being so fudging awful this season. If we do, he should still be gone the next day. A really poor football manager at this level.
Ange is toeing the club line, jose faced off against levy, that's the difference.
No chance mate, 24 years of decisions will say Levy makes decisive calls, managers imploding or not, no one has been given the leeway of 19 losses.
The only thing that has changed is we have a football structure now between Levy and the manager (Munn), the only reasonable answer is Munn took the stupid road that most fans think (time somehow magically makes a bad manager better), and has backed
Ange to first turn it around in the league and now is betting everything on a cup we will not win.
He doesn’t go on the attack but exceeding incoherent and self indulgent rambles are just as bad if not worse given he doesn’t have a record to back it up. His constant referencing back to last season and also the Emirates Marketing Project game are particularly grating.LOL...you know, there are other possibilities and potential reasons. Here's one. Perhaps there was no reasonable candidate lined up at Xmas, so the option was taken to persevere knowing that Postecoglu is not the sort of person who would go on the 'attack' like a Mourinho or Conte...none of us really know. I hope there is some transparency this summer, there again I would not expect it per se as they are a corporate entity.
Tbh there isnt a lot of quality in our squad, especially top quality. Theres not one player we have who would make Liverpools match day squad.Such a weak display, so unorganized, not a single player showed any quality.
Nothing for an own goal but you get a point for a miss, even if the defender touches it last.Maybe in Aussie Rules football own goals count in your favour which is why he insists on having our defenders racing back towards their own goal whenever opponents attack?!
We wont win Euroa with this clown. Even Manure are better than us. At least they put up a fight .We were always gonna lose today. For lots of reasons. But there are ways to lose games. That’s wasn’t it. An absolute embarrassment to our club. It doesn’t compute for me that we’ll win the Europa after being so fudging awful this season. If we do, he should still be gone the next day.

He should have took one with AngeSalah taking a selfie with the fans is a new low in a season of lows under ange
Thought Palace were brilliant. Hope they beat City which I know is a long shot!Another great weekend of football...

Apart from that I love him
