Still not getting the excitement at teams beating us. It'd be a shock if WE won a game.

There wouldn't be such joy and amazement if Bournemouth had won at Leicester.

This is sickening. I'd gladly write this season off as long as we kept Jose and stayed in the prem.

 

I would actually be ecstatic with that option right now, that's how lowly we've become. 

Maybe we should give Emenalo a go? He's already sitting behind Mourinho in fancy Oakley glasses, looking all set to take over.

Honestly this cracked me up!

We've been terrible this year but this has taken that to another level.

This is one of the most toothless teams I've ever had the misfortune to watch, shambles.

Could this season get any lower? I fully expect us to get knocked out by Porto midweek. Completely f* up job by Jose to play with No striker at home and the same non-performing players. Players had no desire any urgency, the last attack when Remy had the ball, they had 6-7 defenders in the box, we only had Costa there. Just because we haven't conceded lots, all the sudden it's all rosy for the likes of Ivanoic, Cesc, Matic to play week in week. This is a performance that deserves sacking, manager and players

Not even upset any more. As it reached 70 mins without us scoring, I knew we wouldn't score all game. And when they got that corner I said tyo my dad, they're going to score aren't they, and look, they did. We're just so predictable.

We can all make excuses by saying it was an offside and maybe we should have had a penalty. But games like these we should be wrapping it up and wining easily

Forget 4th it's over.

Just want this season to be over

Why did Jose abandon what made him so successful in the past?

From strong fast and athletic to small weak and pathetic

Now hes trying to imitate arsenal with 6 midgets on the pitch with no strength.

Nothing is changing, Mourinho won't change tactics, his squad selections are poor and he only makes reaction subs. He is getting everything wrong this season and he doesn't look like he knows how to sort it out.

 

I don't want him to get sacked but his stubborness is really pissing me off now. You can't be the best coach in the world if you don't have a plan B or plan C.

 

Mourinho thinks every single player on the pitch should defend, well this is clearly not working. All of these attacking midfielders tracking back doesn't work, it's just messing up our attacking play. They can't keep running up and down the pitch like this, it's unrealistic to think that this style can work in the long run.

 

We don't even play like a team, we just play like a group of players thrown together to ping the ball up and down the pitch. We don't even have an attacking style to our game. It's all rush rush, get to the edge of the area, stop.......and then do nothing.

 

I can't believe so many good players can go bad over night, there is obviously something very wrong with our tactics.

Yes it can get worse, there is more than half the season left...we actually suck. Hazard does nothing anymore, fabregas is a legit footballing fraud, and our manager has lost the plot. Shambles!!!

This is stupid. How can we not beat Bournemouth, who are riddled with injuries and at the bottom of the table? I can't even drown my sorrows.  This is the absolute pits.  Add to that, Harvey was being a pain the entire match (he was barking and demanding my attention at every turn).  I'd say sack Jose, but who's going to replace him?  The only one I think of is having JT as player-manager.

People love to call out Jose for every loss, not playing Costa was a mistake but in a full half he didn't make a difference, still the movement wasn't there and still when a dangerous ball arrived in the box we had one player loitering nowhere near the six yard box.

 

Jose was right to leave him out and its Costas job to make himself undroppable, he hardly did that in the 49 minutes he got.

 

Bournemouth played well but there is something wrong that gos deeper than a few players getting dropped here and there and their responce or lack of to it, we have too many that play the same style and we are carrying a luxury player that is only of any benifit when the team is flying...while they're struggling, for me Fabregas shouldn't get a look in.

Jose has to take responsibility for that.

 

Poor team selection. Then he allowed things to fester when we were clearly going nowhere.

 

Bad luck to get caught like we did. But if you create nothing then you lay yourselves open to a suckerpunch.

Well done to Bournemouth.

 

As for us, not sure what we do now. Even a week ago I wouldn't want José sacked- the players look toothless and don't give a sh*t. After this though...really a lot of it has to be José's fault- oft quoted definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Matic and Fabregas, week after week. Lack of creativity and penetration, week after week. Not sure I can watch a lot more of this season if we go out of the CL this week.
