  1. If we lose the game remember to not panic. Just think about Arteta.
  2. Nope it's different. Arteta has always been a student of the game and he learned his trade under Pep. Gerrard is a complete novice who doesn't even coach the players.
  3. The Villa park crowd is demanding and wouldn't take well to Dyche brand of football. It wouldn't work.
  4. Saints plays 4-4-2 for a start which he is more suited to. This is why it was an odd signing. Doesn't suit us or the way we play. Complete disaster move from Purslow
  5. We didn't play a good game. We played a good half then Potter tactically adjusted and Gerrard failed to react to the changes.
  6. Remember the words “continuous progression"?
  7. I think Ings is a very specific striker that needs to play in a very specific formation and system in order to work. He cannot lead a line on his own.
  8. It's a real possibility. Gerrard is a complete rookie in terms of management at the top level. He will come up against better and more experienced managers every week. The quality of the squad may save him but so far we're averaging below a point per game. And we're down there in terms of expected goals as well.
  9. Lose to Fulham which is highly likely and we are in some deep shit
  10. Would only get excited about the first 2 names on your list.
  11. He is a CEO. Footballing decisions shouldn't be a part of his job. Should stick to finances and commercial deals and let football people make footballing decisions.
  12. Barely scores goals. The thing he is supposed to be good at?
  13. I actually agree. I don't think people realize how important it is to get rid of Purslow. If Purslow would just stick with commerial deals I would be fine with him but his ego is far too big for that.
  14. Potentially a hero if Gerrards ends up being sacked in the coming days.
  15. Ings is awful. What does he actually offer?
  16. We said the same thing after Smith had one good half against Chelsea but ultimately lost the game. Turns out losing games doesn't breed confidence. We went on a horrible run after and he was sacked not long after.

    Claiming we are an ambitious club aiming for Europe then suddenly turning the money tap off with Purslow saying we are gonna be self sustaining now. We are basically just Crystal Palace, Leeds now. Happy to stay in the league. Watching Newcastle showing real ambition while we're standing still is soul destroying.

    They saved the club which we are all thankful for but in premier league terms they aren't good owners. Our recruitment under this regime has been beyond horrendous. Also. Lying to the fanbase and doing the opposite also doesn't sit right with me.
  19. First half wasn't good. Chelsea were miles off and Potter predictably made pro active changes second half like top managers are supposed to do and what rookie managers struggle to react to.
