Not a Maresca fan by any stretch, but at what point do you also not blame these spineless twats on the pitch? A pack of bums who are too lazy and too fragile, we're not that far away from United when you think about it. 

According to Maresca the club isn't planning to reach the CL until 2026 so it doesn't matter that we're increasingly sh*te in 2025

Potter with a real chance now to be the first ex manager to win at the Bridge.

Potter of all people.

f**king Graham Potter man.

Is that just in the league? Ancelotti beat us with Real when Lampard was picking up the pieces from the Graham Potter season.

Not surprised anymore. We have become a mediocre team with predictable play style unable to beat the likes of Ipswich, Everton, Crystal Palace, Fulham etc.  It's not one off. Maresca has been found out very quickly with no plan B or C gameplan.

Palmer almost scored a free kick. What a save.

Story of our season - almost.

I'm sorry but anyone who says this manager and this football is better than last year is absolutely in denial ... 

World class save from their keeper keeps it at 0-1

Jesus Christ Palmer, not bad

(Is that our first shot on target?)

Potter beating us is just the cherry on top of how sh*t these directors have been.

He's a total dud. Just another donkey hand picked by clueless owners.

The clubs soul is long gone

it was for about 6 games and then the wheels came off 

Opposing keeper transforms into prime Cech. Every time. 

We were far better under Poch once we found our groove. Under Maresca we are so dry with our tactics.

Nobody remotely surprised. Walking through the half in second gear showing no real appetite to win a game of football and then the inevitable f**k up at the back to concede another gift.

 

A performance so tedious to watch that I was tempted to place an online order from Iceland and that despite Iceland not delivering to my postcode.

 

There is so little character in this squad. 

We had super Tommy Tuchel,
He knew exactly what we need,
Tiago at the back, Timo in attack,
Chelsea went and won the champion's league.

95% of goals we concede are from sh*te mistakes.

I need a drink

I think that is good a good plan. 

Story of this football club. 

The only thing keeping a small grin on my face is they have a keeper called Areola….although it would appear that we are the tits 

If only we had someone like an Nkunku or a Felix to offer additional threat in attack eh Maresca !

He's set this team up in the most rigid, boring, soulless system I've seen since AVB.

Areola's moustache suggests that he's looking to switch international affiliation and is positioning himself as Guillermo Ochoa's successor

Colwill, Liverpool want him?

WHY WAS CHALOBAH DROPPED?

The solution must be to just play them regardless of sh*tty performances, like Maresca does.
