I don't think it makes any difference. We've had more than a decade of chronic under-investment, the club and facilities are heading downwards and Bruce is just a small element of that. We need some new owners who actually want to run a football club as a football club.

Realistically, what manager with any talent is going to want to come anywhere near us?

 

Has J-Lingz always been this good?

 

Until the last year or so, yeah actually. He went through some awful personal issues and his head wasn’t in the right space in his last year and a half with us. Absolutely delighted for him.

 

Arsenal have been better since going 3 down but they’re so slow defensively and to second balls

 

Did what they did and they don’t like it lol

 

West Ham have scored 5 goals. I’d love if they scored another and it ended 3-3 with 6 West Ham goals.

 

He always drops classics against Arsenal, but gets memed into oblivion. I admittedly haven't watched a lot of West Ham this season but he seems as bright and sharp as i've ever seen him today.

 

So would I

 

He’s never going to be a player that will lead a team to a Premier League win as a first choice #10 but for an upper mid table team he’s perfect. In form he’s a good addition to any squad, really. He’s got a knack for scoring very important goals.

 

Holy shit

 

That’s been coming.

 

...but is it complete?

 

That should be a penalty?

 

What a game.

 

Cannot understand why West Ham just stopped doing what worked for them in the middle third of that game. They did similar against us, but from the start. Moyes clearly isn’t confident in his players and it seeps through.

 

Right, I’m ready to be disappointed.

 

Our pressing is so lackluster without Bruno. Lots of just jogging about waiting for someone else to start.

 

VDB passes way too quickly to play for us.

 

l m a o

 

Lol Fred has been all over the place every time he's been closed down.

 

Please for the love of god stop fucking playing out from the back to the edge of the fucking D you absolute idiots. How many times has it hurt us this season?

 

He’s all over the place even when he’s not being closed down. He’s one of the worst players in the league on the ball.

 

Holy fuck. What the fuck is he doing. Fuck me

 

I don't disagree. Given he's up against the likes of Iheanacho and Perez, you'd think you'd try not to give him the ball so much.

 

You’d think. We’ve gotten the set up completely wrong here.
