played their hearts out is one thing, players ability is another thing.
Maybe Lopo is a great coach but highly depends on 2 fast full back and a Banega to be success,
but it doesn’t change the fact that this team (or just Lopo) just doesn’t know how to create chances.

Lope’s gone from 94% approval rating with the board to about 48% in the last week. :sweat_smile::sweat_smile::sweat_smile:

Summer we need:

New GK (Dmitrovic)
New RB (Navas is done for me sadly)
New LB to cover Acuña
2 x New CBs (Kounde replacement and upgrade on Gomez / Rekik)
New DMC (replace Gudelj)
New CM (replace Rakitic)
New Winger(s)
New Striker (Replace De Jong)

Season started: Maybe we can be a dark horse and even maybe try to run for the title
Then it went to: Barcelona and Madrid are pretty shit right now, maybe we can grab second
Then it went to: Maybe third place?
And of course, alright, maybe we can get to the final of the Copa del Rey.
Now, maybe we can hold onto fourth?

Soon we’ll be trying to stay in a Europa league spot

82 minutes to get a shot in, according to the UK commentator.

Shows how it can all change quickly. Sadly this is nothing new with us. We have a habit of blowing up at this time of year. We look tired and devoid of ideas and energy currently.

Oh piss off de Jong. Shame you can’t do it in the past 91 minutes.

Don’t get me wrong, I still think Lopo is one of the best coach we’ve ever had.
(for me he’s a better coach than Emery for sure)
If it’s Emery or someone else, I think we will be floating around 5th or 6th with crappy defense.
But his style of play definitely isn’t exiting (at least this season),
he needs to improve on his offensive game if he ever wants to coach big teams again.

Great ball by Acuna. Look you can’t get pissed at De Jong. That’s how he scores and you didn’t do that until the 90th minute. You didn’t give him any crosses until here.

I don’t know if it’s possible to grab an equalizer but who knows?

I can because he has been lumbering around game after game for ages now. He needs to do a lot more of the hard graft for me. :sweat_smile:

Agree with Chris. We bought him knowing full well what a type of striker he is.

Pretty sure he is also supposed to hold the ball up and win flick ons, but he does none of that. He is the opposite of Benteke who does the hard graft and hold up play but can’t score for shit. :rofl:

Ocampos trying to do too much with Suso wide open. Uggg

Okay I think we can all agree that we’re tired of seeing Ocampos do that silly move and fall over.
