You guys have some amazing players shackled by Conte and Mourinho. We've been let down by some of these players for several managers across multiple years, and some of them are still getting the chance.

We can get a lot better than we currently are. Struggle to get worse, especially given the injuries. Everyone seems low on confidence.

And he says it's specifically cause of the players we have.

You can't play Ajax football with Fernandes, Casemiro, Rashford, McTominay, Wan Bissaka, Maguire. Could go on. Cause we've Frankensteined a squad of mainly 2 different counter attacking managers, Mourinho and Ole.

What is causing the issue is that he's brought in some 'Ajax' players to play alongside the others, so we're playing some fucked up in-between which isn't giving the best of either, and actually showing the worst in both.

He has to take blame, but the board above him do too, why is there nobody above him saying we now have a squad filled with players who want to be on the ball and also several players who treat the ball like a grenade?

If we beat Copenhagen and Gala away that Bayern game is a dead rubber

Doesn't even say he's about to be fired, the first line of the article says 'expect Bournemouth to pull the trigger this season' lol

Varane came back, we couldn't have too many fit defenders so Evans had to pay the price

First half was a disgrace. Couldn't keep the ball to save our life.

2nd half we dominated but still look so flat and unimaginative in front of goal. Playing Fernandes & McTominay together is the easiest way to constantly lose the ball, hope we never do it again.

Great finish

All true, how we take the ball off him is an issue in building up. But i think even with the lack of press resisting knowledge when playing out, that ain't what is getting Onana in hot water, it's your other point which is basic goalkeeping.

  • should've given away a pen vs Wolves which likely would've cost us 2 points

  • Terrible for Forest's 2nd goal, just falls over

  • Howler for Bayern's 1st goal

  • Brentford's goal goes straight through him

  • Arguably could've done better with Zaha's goal

And then the hospital pass to Casemiro for Galatasaray's penalty which put us down to 10 men and effectively cost us the game. Lots of other keepers do shit like this in times during the season, but for the good GKs they're rare mistakes.

People on here are so hung up on that Maguire thing in pre-season, it's so weird. Both players said there's no issue and I'd expect my keeper to be demonstrative after a defensive howler.
