[Texas Iron]

Very poor performance all round from kick off… No motivation…enthusiasm…desire to win….lacking confidence… Moyes and 3 Assistant managers could not change things all game… Let down by poor defending and deplorable attacking…Bowen Kudus Antonio nullified by Forest… JWP Alvarez Philips created little…Philips a waste of space…liability Areola saved us from another 5+ drubbing… Zouma Aguerd Coufal poor…Emerson OK… Antonio should have been saved for later with tiring defenders… Moyes subs bad timing…and Ings was stupid timing… An old lifeless Moyes with no imagination or plan B…with a tired misfit squad with no attacking nous or any semblance of goal scoring threats…

[Mad Dog]

"Nutsin. We're 7th for spend We're 6th for wages (or something like that) We rank 1 place above real Madrid in thr rich league We sell out 62.5k per week We've got paqueta, kudus, bowen alvarez etc on our books We were made promises when we moved to the London stadium. We've put up with shit for years. Ii really do hope we finally do get what we deserve"

[onsideman]

Northern Sold used to be a decent bloke. He's changed but I'm pretty sure he's embarrassed to be left high and dry and in bed with Nutsin and Yorkhammer

Nutsin 11:52 Sat Feb 17 I have been a season ticket holder longer than you were a spunk bubble. Stop being a total cսnt and support the club.

[side effect]

Agree. Club need to be held accountable. And that's the fans job

[BillyJenningsBoots]

And Nutsin you are either the wankiest of all our fans or a wanky Spurs fan...

[Massive Attack]

"Your surname ain't Moyes by any chance is it, Nutsin?"

[Nutsin]

You wankers will all get what you deserve. The only thing worse than our performance is our wanky fans!

[Full Claret Jacket]

"We should be comfortably in 5th or 6th with the fixtures we have had recently but the squad depth is painful and to top it all the only business we did in January when it was clear to everyone we needed a striker and some cover for Paqueta and Kudus while he was away was a player who hasnt played for 2 seasons and who was never going to hit the ground running. I've nothing against Phillip's but he wasnt what we were missing. No pace, no left wing and no strikers. It just goes ignored by the manager and board. Today we always looked second best to a side who have spent loads on outcasts but have a manager who seems to have some attacking intent and they got what they deserved although I'll laugh if they get done for FFP and get docked points."

[onsideman]

Nutsin is a fucking cretin That is all

[Eerie Descent]

"Just take a bit of time, and just appreciate how fucking thick Northern Sold is, closely followed by Yorkhammer. It's not much of a consolation for having to be a supporter of the worst Footballing team in the country, but just feel relieved you're not THAT thick."

[BillyJenningsBoots]

Nutsin yes I am a fan unlike you Im a fan of the club not Moyes.. You seriously still think he deserves to be the manager of this once great club... then you are more deluded than Moyes and Sullivan put together.. he is beyond the point of no return... even if he had the nouse which I doubt I dont think the players have any belief in him... if we change manager now there the slim chance we get the dead cat bounce and maybe a chance to continue in Europe... as it stands we have no chance.. but you are too afraid to admit you're wrong ... you and Moyes clearly have a lot in common!!

[Sir Alf]

"Cheers Mex Its fine margins and no intent but refs dont seem to consider that nowadays or the context. Think the ref had doubts too and hence didnt give a pen for the Cornet clip ( again unintentional and made a meal our of) but we’ve iften seen those given. He left VAR to deal with it. Ref looked swayed by vociferous home crowd. If Phillips had stayed on we didnt look like scoring anyway. Imo midfield looked better today with Phillips and Alvarez ( one if our better players ) but now its JWP who’s looking a weakness. Doesnt do enough in possession and not strong or quick enough. Phillips imo still needs to improve a fair amount more but is getting better the more he plays. Unfortunatrly a match ban wont help with that. Also today, Antonio just a bit too old, slow and falls over too easy although not sure refs give him much. Just back from a long lay off though so never gonna be sharp and especislly at 34 years old !! But he’s not a forward. Never looks like one as evidenced when he got thru and looked so uncomfortable having to shoot or cut in from the left. Hes all right foot or it looked tyat way. Aguerd / Zouma are a problem now as is Coufal. Like the team as a whole we are vulnerable to pace and Aguerd is simply not possessing tge physicaility or aerial ability needed in the Premiership. Got rag dolled several times and for the goal. Mavropanos getting droppedbecause he was a Steidten choice after just beginning to settle a bit i thought. Aguerd should be an attacking left back. Coufal needs replacing. He now looks like the 5 million player he is. Squad cover only for me. Bowen and Kudus now getting special attention so tactics need to change. But as mentioned it also needs some 3,or so different players for an injection of pace and movement along with a manager that sets his team up to play thru the opposition. While its going to be a very painful next 3 months, for the long term good we dont really want any revival as such because it will mean delaying the inevitable end of a manager who did a good job but was past his sell by date last season. Moyes resorting to obvious deflection and minimisation techniques now in every pist match interview. Doesnt matter what you did unfortunately its today and tomorrow tgat matters in football and we need to try something different"

[Northern Sold]

"`We were rubbish, we didn't lose because of Phillips. We lost because we can't pass forward`. ... has Mr Phillips ever passed a ball forwards???"

[nychammer]

"we've really nothing to lose by getting rid of Moyes right now. It's pretty indefensible keeping him around stinking it out and pointless if there's no new contract in the offing. Give a new man some time now because the remainder of this season is a free hit because we not in danger of going down, so we might as well throw caution to the wind and make the change now."

[bell]

I particularly enjoyed the Ings sub.

[Mad Dog]

Sydney iron. Shit season. What are you on about. We've never had it so good. After all we're 6th Edit. 7th Edit 8th Edit 9th To be continued

[Mex Martillo]

"It's starting to look like we're for relegation, but without a real threat as we're nearly safe. Phillips is a tool, but bizarrely I think I going to like him being at West Ham. Sir Alf, Phillips did catch the other player, just missed the ball, other player made a meal of it. I thought yellow was harsh, especially when you knew it would be red. Phillips other yellow was just stupid, but I'm happy to see him giving it out a bit when challenged. No messing, I'm ok with that. We were rubbish, we didn't lose because of Phillips. We lost because we can't pass forward."

[zico]

"Sir Alf 9:30 Sat Feb 17 He caught him but in most games it would have been harsh. The Referee got his cards out too early so didn't give himself any choice. He is a poor Referee that looks out of his depth, that said Phillips was stupid with the first booking, you know if you push someone it's a card. Phillips looks like a guy who can't believe what crap he has walked into, and just hasn't got going at all. Right now he would help his England chances more by getting splinters on City's bench! He wasn't the only one though, Kudus just looked so frustrated and you could tell that Coufal had his petty head on and just waned an argument."

[Sydney_Iron]

"Fucked up and thought we were playing Sunday! Seen the score now so not sure i will bother watching, seeing comments and reports why put myself through that depressing shit. Looks like a European spot is well off the table, only good thing is we have enough points to avoid the drop, not optimistic the Europa either so all in all feeling a bit shit. Turning into a shit season."

[Mad Dog]

"Brentford, Burnley. Same thing Didn't realise it had moved to Monday. That's a pain in the arse as I can't use my son's game as an excuse now. And it's a fucking long day getting back home after the game and a day at work Cheers david"
