Pity some can't distinguish support from blind faith.

we are all fanboys no?

Our focus should be get a better result than last season. All away team won tonite except west brom game.

A simple answer,
we will work hard as hard as possible, achieve as high as possible, so hard to say?

Needless to say can win the title after 4 games.

Some fellas expect us to challenge for the title each season and for some reason, I'm deemed unrealistic.

I agree with your view and nobody is denying the problems we had.

But some of us here (not you), have already committed to defeatist attitude before the match even starts. So we got what we deserved. THinking of not winning and that's exactly what will happen.

Fans behaving like that, the team also behave like that because of afraid of losing. So there we go

Obviously this is no stroke of genius by BR. LOL. BR should be blamed this time no doubt. Sakho was great in central defence but he is no LB. Why oh Why?

Credit to Soton..their pressing was superb. Pochetino got his tactis right against BR again. Gerrard was constantly outmuscled in the midfield and Lucas was nowhere to be seen.

We miss Coutinho. Theres no BUTS about it. Suarez should walk straight into the first 11 easily. We have no creativity up front and the bench options were aweful. I knew theres no hope of us scoring because no one was creating anything. We should have lost by a wider margin if not for Mignolets heroics.

Several players were trying to be too clever. Sturridge was guilty of being greedy today. U can be greeedy if we're in front but not when we're behind and theres clearly better options in front of you. But not just sturridge, the whole team was dreadful. BR is solely to blame this time.

My English must be really bad because I can't make sense of what you've just posted.

Never lose faith in your team. Always believe they can do it.

United were losing at half time to Liverpool but I kept watching and hoping for a 'miracle' but it didnt happen la but at least you have your team's back. Positive thinking is what you need.

Cheers!

So disappointing to lose at home like this.

Soton pressed really well. We never looked the same after the International break :'(

We better pummel Man Utd in the Carling Cup after a horrid perfromance like this.

i let them be. and move on.

I have said before, Gerrard may play too many games in succession, he is not at 20-30 anymore.
Time to give a rest.

Play CB at LB and RB, there won't be any width, as they are not known for overlapping run and give cross or shooting.

Apart from Moses, no winger at all.

Y dillon? Because I was right again YET again?

Anyway I gave a fair assessment to our team's performance prior to the game but as usual some were quick to pounce on me. Looks like they got sand kicked in their faces today.

Cheers . U need to down 5 pints

I can only speak for myself but I've never turned the telly off even when we are down 3-0 with 10 mins to go. If everyone abandoned the team, the Attaturk would have been empty at half time.

recall suso, loan sterling.. henderson should play AM i remember he feed Sturridge much

Yeah..Soton did well..they press like no tomorrow. Usually even when teams press us like this, we have Couthinho who's so cool with his nifty footwork and unfazed in the midfield, he would just bypass them or get fouled. We sorely miss him today IMO.

Some say we can still work without him..but the answer is this..we obviously cant.

BR got it wrong, simple as that. Managers job are to predict what is the best tactic to beat your opposition. BR went with 4 CB, it ends up a bad decision, so manager has got to take the blame.

All the players didn't play well except Mignolet. Gerrard was diabolical today, gave the ball so many times. Sturridge was lifeless, he did score once last week but went missing for the rest of that match as well, today was no different. Sterling is not progressing enough. Aspas looks like he might go down the Borini road. After all is said and done, we are still lacking cover at fullback and lacking attacking options. What's the point of having 5CB?

This result is worrying because it shows that our good start could be a fluke. We hardly play well enough this season, all grinding result only. Forget title, forget CL qualification, if we continue to play as lifeless as this, this season will end up the same as King Kenny's last season. Midtable mediocracy.

the problem with the team are all the player dont want to push themselves to go to next level.. it's so sad coz some of the player doesnt have ambition at all and some think they already big player...

take example like sturridge,coutinho,mignolet.. they played beyond their limit coz they know if they dont give their best shot the chance to play in world cup is thin..

low ambition player like lucas,alberto,enrique.. their ambition is only to stay in club,, nowhere thinking about wc or what.. that's why they hard show hunger in the game

Read this. this is what sensible comment is about. Full game focus instead of personal emotion throwing at everything connected to the club.

We got a problem. So next game, we fix it. Simple as that.
