Unless Chilwell is injured and AC speaks fluent French or Portuguese and the new goalkeeper is blind I have to agree that team selection and tactics have been the undoing of this half 

It’s been said above. This could have serious ramifications for frank. I can see WBA scoring 4 or 5. Get one before half time and there us still a chance for a draw. But I can’t see us holding them out. 
honestly I’m appalled but not surprised. 

We are getting outplayed by Brighton and West Brom. Wtf?

West Brom is where our managers go to get sacked.

It's his players though, he sets them up and picks them. Can you honestly say you have seen any sort of progression on our defending and positional play under Frank the past 15 months? 

It's been getting worse 

no I can't. it's embarassing.

We haven’t conceded for 5 minutes. Corner turned.

As expected we are being found out hard.

Barnsley massively papered over the cracks. We are so unbelievably terrible and I have to say, I think it's Frank's fault. First manager to be sacked?

wtf is this? how can you be a Premier League footballer and not do the basics. Can't blame Frank, it's the players. 

He picks the players, you can blame him as much as you want.

Come on at least make the score line look respectable.

What the f**k is going on? Why on earth is there so much space between the midfield and the forward line? Kanté and Kovacic aren't Fabregas, how are they going to get the ball forward? We look absolutely atrocious.

From middle to back we are a disgrace. There doesn't seem to be any real instruction to how we are supposed to play. 

We have a wealth of Riches but it's like we have just met each other at half past 5 today. 

At some point you have to stop look at the players and look at the manager. WBA has a plan each player knows their role as what they need to do we on the other hand don't it's that f**king simple.

Embarrassing. f**king shameful defending.

 

It hasn't change one bit has it?

Hint hint: It's not the players.

Yes. The thought crossed my mind. It has been a graveyard for our managers in the past.

Can't have been following that much if you can't remember 15/16 season. 

I cant remember f**k all any more 

we need to get the goal back quickly...

If defenders were competent we’d never be 3 down. 

It is embarrassing. We’re so slow with the ball. Tammy or Werner takes their chance it’s a different game.

This sums it up.

Get Kante off for Jorginho, we have nothing to lose at the moment.

Not even a second

Wow, over 300 million on young injury prone attacking players and a midget keeper whilst having this defence. I'm sure it's got absolutely nothing at all to do with Frank, but who the hell is behind this player recruitment strategy? Still, it certainly put Barnsley in their place!

They don't just struggle to help the forwards, they leave the middle of the pitch so open which leaves our defenders vulnerable. I have lost count the amount of times we have lost the ball high up the pitch and West Brom players are running at our back line without any pressure.

 

f**king unbelievable...

We need one goal at least. (before halftime)
