Reckon we could pull 5 members randomly off this forum to make a back line that could keep a clean sheet against this lot. 

I can't run for more than about two minutes. I'll man mark Kai for 90 if need be.

but we didn't and lost 2-0 with calamitous defending 

Yes but at least we knew the problem!! Now we are sh*te in EVERY aspect of the game!

Just kick all of those damn players out after the Season, I don't care about a single one. Playing with academy players or Kids is a lot better than this sh*tshow. 

No Coach can save this Catastrophe.

For some reason people seem to think a manager is literally on the pitch playing every pass tackle and shot. 

Depressing how sh*t we looked. But its going to make the champions league win even sweeter.

Behave yourself 

champions league in the bag

He did not 'got time'!! He got 20 odd matches!!!! Fact is we are WORSE now than we were under him, not only that our performances WERE starting to improve, it was clear as day what our isssues were - nobody to score goals and defence with a mistake or two per game, now our issues are EVERY aspect of the game!  Basically Potter was starting from scratch and our next man in charge has to go all the way back to 'scratch' again!!  For gods sake we MUST give the next manager time!!!

Big clubs have standards. 

I agree the next manager should have time, but if they're decent they won't need it because they'll get results. 

 

However, I'm starting to think the new ownership has turned the job into a monster that no man can tame.

It really wouldn't be any worse.

Time?!

He was manager for under a year! Without a pre season. With 1 winter transfer window. In a year with a world cup in the middle. With then having to form a "team" out of x number of new young players who had never played in the EPL.

Dont tell me he had time! that is a joke.

This EXACTLY, not to mention the fact that he had the worst injury list I've ever known to contend with!

Can I have your dealers number? I need some of that stuff 😂

We'd have bossed this match with Potter in charge. 0-0 draw because we can't finish, but still. 

 

I know it's a dead horse well beaten, but he was not the problem. I think a large section of our supporters are going to get a "careful what you wish for" lesson.

Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest are 'big clubs', didn't stop them from spending time outside the top division though.  NO club has a right to 'top 4' just from their name, I'm old enough to know this from personal experience.

8 games in PL

8 + 2 CL games

The big question is whether or not we get caught by 12th!

We are an awful team. Completely mismanaged for months, confidence is at an all time low. 

Expecting this to be the norm until the summer, as it has been since about october.

Crazy how far we have fallen off in 12 months. 

13 of 30 (43%) of games we have not scored a goal in the PL. 

9 of 30 (30%) we scored more than one goal. 

the league table does not lie. I’d be surprised if we finished higher than 11th.

I did say the the excitement in some members of lampard returning will be short lived once reality sinks in. 

I believe he had one training session with the squad. One.

I actually feel sorry for Frank having to manage players who aren't a patch on what he was and team a million miles away from the ones he played in

 

Well we're getting a taste of what it's like to be a Spurs fan, or as somebody else quoted being in Everton territory ... we just have to wear it keep supporting the club and move on 

Todd should get worried right now. That f**king idiot came in and thought he knew everything about club football, signing sh*t overpriced players left, right and centre and sacked everyone in sight. Now we're left with a sorry bunch of players not knowing what formation or who they'll be playing next to in the next game. That idiot has created a huge mess and we may not get relegated this season but surely we're in for a relegation battle next season if things go on like this.

I refer you to the Villa game, that we bossed, couldn't finish, and still lost 2-0.

I can't believe some people were saying "Just get Potter out of the way, and the players will be free to play again".

Potter set us back so much, what a contrast to when Lampard took over Sarri, you can actually see that the players genuinly don't know what they're doing.

Yeah just keep blaming Potter - thats going to work!!
