Our defence is utterly shocking.

Jesus Christ I nearly put a 10-1 bet for Burnley to win, shame. Gary really is a douche bag at times.

As I said at the start: while we got the draw our defensive abilities are still terrible.

Come on, kick on you chumps.

No offence but most players don't.

More like defence out, in reality our defence is a shower of sh*t this year...in fact quite a lot of the team is as well.

Everton players can get down and dirty when required, too many of ours are unable to do it or like Costa go to far and try and beat up opposition. About the best I'm hoping for is a draw, anything more would be spectacular considering our recent form.

The ref doesn't matter when you can't defend.

Sorry but our defensive abilities are utterly terrible.

It is ironic that Roman was always too quick to fire managers and yet probably one of the rare times that he probably needs to consider it he seems to be trapped by past events.

Well that is another one lost, sorry but my patience is wearing very thin with both Jose and quite a few members of this team, I don't tend to like the more defensive attacking line which so far hasn't worked, or some of the players Jose continues to pick and some of the players are just dismal recently....say what you want but there is no denying the simple truth we are terrible at the moment and I'm not convinced it is about to stop yet.

The media started it and not the media has ended this rumour.

The only thing I do know is what the heat map will look like if Jose plays Ivan again ;-)

It isn't the losses themselves that are the issue most people have, it is how they were lost and how Chelsea look and those claiming it is only 4 games are ignoring the glaring basic facts that it is a 50% loss rate and we've conceeded nearly a third of the goals we did for the entire season last year in only 4 games.

To me if Jose plays Ivan again as rightback in the next match then he is being very stupid, whatever the reason Ivan has become very weak this year and other teams are being very quick to exploit it. Having said that the I'm struggling to find nearly any member of the team who is playing as well as last year, we've got worse in nearly every area and I don't think the odd possible player transfer is going to change that but even worse at this rate our fight won't be to win the league but will be just to get into the top 4................our play and league targets are slowly turning us in to Arsenal. I'm fairly sure Jose will come up with some obfuscation to try and cover the performance but he'll soon have to be more honest about it.
