Thug

I’ve been a huuuuge critic, but credit where credits is due. He picked a team for the match. He set his tactics for the match. He changed his formation to counter them as he thought best. He took off a player that wasn’t keeping up with pace. Basically, he did all the shit he’s supposed to have been doing for months now. He finally THOUGHT about the opposition. He’s still got a LONG way to go to redeem himself, but more of wherever that came from in the next 5 matches, and I’ll forgive him. He’s lucky he’s still in the job, and if he was replaced tomorrow - I’d still be happy. But I’m not baying for his blood for the time being. Well done for doing your job (finally)

Was superb today. Not his usual selfish self.

I don’t know you know. I think Cash has been pretty poor for the last 12 months. Before his international call up, he was fantastic

I know mate. I’m sorry. Sometimes you just assume that the person you’re talking to understands things to a certain level. Anyway, the Cash yellow will have been for wasting time by taking too long to get off the field of play. Ref had already come across and asked him to get off once, and he’s still just waking very slowly. And if he takes a long time getting off, that slows things down, and the people on the other team get very angry and upset. And that might start a fight. So to stop that from happening, the referee gives a yellow card, to give the player a warning. And then the people on the other team are happy because the bad time-wasting man got punished.

Wow Ok this makes things a little clearer now. I’m sorry for arguing with you. I’ll Clean your helmet and sharpen your crayons for you as a goodwill gesture.

You’re genuinely hilarious. YOU were wrong. Arguing with me about a fact. And then tell me I should’ve posted the rules here for you? Anyway leave it there. You’re clearly a little lacking in the IQ department.

Oh my god. I told you a FACT. ‘No he doesn’t.’ did you ‘provide evidence’ when you said ‘he has to blow’? so YOU feck off you hypocrite

Are you serious? You want to be spoon fed basic rules? I suggest that if you’re not sure, do a little research before arguing about it.

I’m being the child?! mate google the rules. And in future I suggest you check facts before calling someone a child. I await your apology.

No he doesn’t

He doesn’t have to blow the whistle.

The ref blew the bloody whistle for no bloody reason. Should’ve ignored the flag and let the game play Once he blows the whistle, VAR can’t do shit

1) he’s onside. 2) the ball is played backwards So.. 1) Utter Shite linesman 2) Utter shite ref.

So many great performances. Special mentions to Mings, Kamara, Watkins. But for me, Young shows Cash how it’s done. Foden completely in his pocket, and the forward balls are so much better than Cash.

Why if the ref blowing for offside?!

Wtffff!?!!!! thsts a **** goal!

Well done boys and we’ll done Stevie G. picked a team for the occasion for a change, and reaping the rewards.

Yh, the crazy 10% that thought… - Beating Everton 3-0 - Losing to Chelsea on pens with a very good display - Beating Man United - Losing to a very good Spurs 2-1 - Battering Wolves for 80 minutes - 10 minutes of utter madness conceding 3 goals ….was a run where it was clear that he knew that he would lose his job after all he had achieved. I really don’t think many people at that point could have contemplated what was to follow.

Not at all. Ae had just played them off the park for 80 minutes, followed by total madness of 10 minutes. I don’t think Smith or 90% of fans saw a sacking coming. He had enough credit in the bank to believe he deserved longer. I don’t believe he thought he was done until he was done.

Oh he’s worse than both. There is no doubt about it.

No point in working hard without direction and cohesion. They’re not being told to pull in the same direction. Match after match there’s gaping holes in our defence. Once again Arsenal we’re overloading the left wing area and exploiting a weakness around cash. Once again our team is too narrow, and the midfield setup is just wrong. Against a team that are likely to control possession, why would he not start with a Kamara - Luiz sitting infront if he back four? concede almost 70% possession, which by itself isn’t a problem - but when the opposition go in at half time with so much possession and quite frankly should’ve been 4 up, - you really think a tactical shake would happen. Nothing. He can’t see the problem on the pitch thag even us fans can see. He makes changes too late, and even when he does, he doesn’t address the big issues. Tactically naive, and clearly didn’t appreciate that if you’re gonna come in swinging your dick around - you better show that you’re capable. He’s not capable, at all. Shouldnt have rocked so many boats at the same time

He’s got something about him. Messi would struggle in the current set up. A little difficult judge anyone player until we are set up properly

Every point dropped since the palace game is now Purslow’s problem.

Shit under Gerrard.

Gerrard definitely very poosr. No doubt about it.
