I know AP had to take overall responsibility and I think he should go because can't see him turning it around. But...
.defenders have to be aware of who's around them. Most of their goals were because our players lost theirs.
.puncheon, Cabaye and macarthur seem to have lost all discipline, they are all over the place. When we had our good spell at the start of last season, Cabaye and macarthur sat in front of the back 4 and knew exactly what their role was..Not now.
. Finally, against a team who are dangerous at set pieces, we gave away 24 free kicks, almost double any other premiership team playing today.

A lot of this can be put down to the manager, but an awful lot of blame has to go to the players.

With considerable assistance from the referee who was a total t*** and gave them all sorts of free kicks for b***er all. In particular their first goal came from a free kick in ideal Gylfi territory for a "foul" by Puncheon, whose only offence seemed to be looking to see where other players were instead of looking at the ball when some bloke in a white shirt ran into his back. Absolute bollocks.

Frankly though that was the only one of those free kicks that they ought to have had any business scoring from.

Oh please don't blame the ref for giving them 24 free kicks...

And what do you think they said that was wrong?

At dead ball situations Benteke has a job to do. As a very talented player why shouldn't he be marking one of their danger players? Players aren't cutting it, no excuses.

That's Life
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a Dream.
KEEP THE FAITH!!!!!
