Formal Giraffe

Hey it's good to know, cheers

Absolutely no idea.. I'm being censored by the man because I went on a rant about a lot earlier maybe 🤣

Yep, back before FSG. He used to be bosom buddies with trump until Jan 6th. Donated money to his inauguration fund in 2017 etc.

I'm pissed with slots negative "try not to concede, oh, shit we already have, oh well" style of football, but he's head coach, not manager, so can't put the transfers on him. I'm sure he has input, but he isn't the one to get it over the line.

Unless he specifically asked for no incomings

Patriots are owned by Robert Kraft, and he can go fuck himself with a rusty cactus tbh

I have it on, but not really watching it

Buckets at a lowes, next to a sign that says your dream bathroom starts here

I'd say some kind of hillbilly dialect, but he was raised in a very well off family, and was trying to be a rapper before vanilla ice made it big and took his spot 😂

🤣

Me too mate 😂

Exactly that. I remember how it felt under Roy, and it's the same feeling.

The maybe we can get a point if the other team has an off day.

This must be what it feels like to be an everton fan.. poor bastards

These players didn't suddenly become shit, they didn't suddenly get lazy.. so how they're being told to play is the only thing left

Guilty 😁

That's it, and that kills me. I can take a bad result it happens. It's the manner it's happening that is upsetting

No disagreement there, he has had some bad breaks as well

It's how he acts when things go bad that is the measure of him

But, it's all just opinion. Neither one of us can change it, so we just have to keep on.

Won't stop me complaining mind you 🤣

Manual labour called off for lack of leveling sand.. oh well..

Guess I'll just have to put my feet up 😁

Can only hope carra is full of shit as per usual, but I doubt it

It's been so hard to watch, and kills me that I'm not excited before each game like I was

Alright, time for me to go be productive for a bit - the damn paving slab under the grill won't level itself

Behave yourselves 😁

It's the same rigidity, he has his system, & will not deviate from it even though it isn't working. The results are clear that it isn't

There's no getting away from that - we are lucky to be in the top half of the league, and it is highly unlikely we'll get CL this season. The buck stops with him

He has to be - he leaves everything on the field. We need more of that

I think kerkez is coming into his own, but we definitely miss it from robbo too

It's a symptom of a wider problem. We can't say what would have could have been for sure - but it shows such weak character that it keeps happening week in, week out.

Honestly, for me, it's the rigid holding to a system that just does not work.

Amorin (rightly so) got fired for the same shit

Dom should get a sainthood. He leaves everything on the field

That said - could we not perhaps get an actual RB that isn't made of silly string?

He's young, but he's miles ahead of the competition and barely gets 10 mins.

Chiesa should be getting more time too tbh

Dom has been sensational and honestly would be my pick for captain

Virg lost me when he started screaming at other players when he fucked up. And the interviews.. the oh well, we just need to do better.

He's the goddam captain, he should be taking responsibility

His inability to pivot is destroying us. It's clear it isn't working, so change the system. But he won't, it's the same every game, same players, same style, same cowardly sitting back, scared to get forward. Then if a player has a stand out game, sub them off.

Same thing cost Amorin his job

Agreed about guehi, but not the rest tbh - a good first half wins us the game.. confidence builds confidence

Until we show the mental fortitude of a goldfish

Do you think he's been an effective leader this season? Genuinely asking

Watch him last year, watch him this year, and then tell me he is showing anywhere near the leadership he was

The only time he shouts now is when he makes a mistake

If you were Rio, one of the most exciting young talents in the game, watching Gakpo start ahead of you every single game - would you wait patiently or start wondering if some other team would value you more

But it is.. excuse after excuse. Listen to his interviews. Listen to virg. Both of them do nothing but whine

Every team brings in new players

Game after game he starts Mac and Gakpo, neither has had a really good game in months

I can take a bad result, but not the apathy shown

But how is he not getting it in the first half? We play to not concede - we had 3 shots in the first half and only what like 39% possession.. at home. Against the worst City team in years

I'm half wondering if the players just got fed up with his negative style and went rogue

It's Roy all over

At this point in the season, it's nothing but excuses.

If we had a transitional season last year, fair enough. But to go from champions to this, where does the buck stop?

He has us playing to not lose, and it bites us over and over

It's Roy Hodgson again.
