The more I think about last night's performance and lack of any kind of tactics I wonder why Roy don't just play a team of kids, like what Villa did (although their hand was forced!!) We would have learned an awful lot more from doing that, and since Roy obviously isn't fussed about progressing, as is the case in every cup comp under him, he could have given the entire team a rest.

Zaha, Townsend, Benteke, Batshuayi, Ayew and Eze on the pitch - and not a single shot one goal!!! Tthis is not what the FA is about. Remember the joy, when we beat Wolwes 10 years ago and the pride of the Anfield-victory in 2003. Roy has taken away every piece of joy and pride, on an off the pitch, at a time, where we need it more than ever. GO. NOW.

I have to question the manager's hold on reality. On paper we had a talented team so why did they run around like 'headless chickens' with absolutely no tactical direction? Individual 'villain' was PVA (yet again) and the midfield in general with no attacking intent or intelligent distribution. Eze has great talent but is already losing his edge due tactical restrictions on him. I thought Sakho and Tomkins were solid and Butland not at fault for the goal (it was a rocket) but the team were tactically inept - so who is to blame?

Certainly a strike with venom but I do think that "Wonder goal" is an exaggeration. Seems like Roy's comments are distracting people from our own performance. Wonder goal or not. They had the lead and we weren't able to create a single shot on target. Doesn't make much difference how it went in - as soon as they were 1-0 up it was game over. We can no longer keep clean sheets, so it was only a matter of time.

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

It was disgraceful, but PVA has been guilty of abject embarrassing defending in recent games. Did you notice how just turned his back when Traore shot for his goal, PvA couldve/shouldve put his body in the way. He wantx out & it shows.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Interesting thought ? If covid didn't arrive and we had full stadiums at home ,Who thinks Roy would be still in charge ? I think Roy and the board are being shielded from major fan unrest at our tactics and performances.

This is how I know how bad we were last night: 1. I did not raise my voice or shout at the screen once. We were utter Sh8t.
