Anyone else think Ings did ok when he came on today? At least he turned a couple of players and pressed forward

[onsideman]

"You've just acknowledged that despite spending £400m Moyes has curated a wafer thin squad with insufficient quality. Yet you think he's the nuts, Nutsin And what the merry fuck is FPP?"

[Keep dreaming]

Noone is buying your nonsense. It's Moyes responsibility to make sure we have a competitive squad. 500m spent and four fucking years and this is where we are. Just fuck off with your bollocks

[Nutsin]

"We play it tight at the back due to the lack of pace at the back. When we push up it exposes our lack of pace and leaves us open at the back. Up front we had Paqueta out for most of the game, no kudus and no Antonio. Reason why we were so poor in front of goal is because Moyes gave Mubama a chance like you have all been crying out for, and just like I said he offered nothing. His positioning was awful, offered no threat at all not in the air or on the ground, isn’t quick and appears lightweight. Hopefully that will be it for him. Finding the right player to fill the void isn’t that easy in any transfer window especially when you have FPP rules to consider. Yeah mistakes have been made but we’ve also got a lot right, you must know this, you can’t be that fucking ignorant surely. What Moyes is doing is fucking working, it might not be Liverpools style of play week in week out but we are nowhere near Fat Sam. So fucking calm down and shut the fuck up!"

[Eerie Descent]

"I get that a few stream watching weirdos on here have committed to defending the manager at all costs, but how the fuck can you not have the good grace to come on here and be honest about that absolute abortion of a performance today? Zero excuses, and conclusive proof that after £450mil spend, we cannot win a game without Paqueta staying fit. Fucking embarrassing."

[Willtell]

"Today’s poor performance was once again due to poor management. A few injuries and the weaknesses in the squad are in sharp focus. It’s not as if we weren’t expecting AFCON either. Moyes has had 4 years in the job and should have built a decent squad with the £450m spent. Moyes ignores the regular introduction of youth and reserve players then is surprised when they get overrun by lower division opponents. Our first team gets us 6th place but even so, it’s unbalanced. A decent manager will quickly sort us out with Steidten’s help but Moyes has to go. These are indisputable facts. End of story"

[Sir Alf]

"I still cannot get my nut around the Soucek thing? He might get on the end of a cross as per today and helps with aerial ability on defending set pieces etc Otherwise he does nothing. Can’t pass, struggles to control the ball and looks like he’s running in diving boots Cornet may not be the answer to anything but from his 15 minutes you can see he is a better footballer than Benrahma, Fornals and of course Soucek. Moyes and his coaches? What is it they see as professionals that our eyes don’t ?"

[OneAll]

"nutsin- you was literally just slating divin in the thread about him, so wtf you talking about people moaning , fucking mong"

[northbankboy68]

I hope they do us in the replay. Our priorities MUST be the Europa League and Premiership. Our injury stricken squad is way too thin for anything g else!

[marty feldman]

It does nich the d .Moyes thinking is absolutely bewildering at times . I remember posting on here for us for us to sign him . After we played Burnley in march 2022 . Best player on the pitch by far barring the penalty miss . we sign him and don't use him . Mental absolutely mental . Moyes Did the same with Zaha at the mancs .

[Side of Ham]

"In fairness to Nutsin, he’s 1000’s of miles away with West Ham as his 3rd interest…..it makes it easy to be passive about it all…."

[BillyJenningsBoots]

Nutsin You are delusional if you think we are improving. We are not. Moyes still making the same mistakes week in week out even when we win inspite of him... I'm not making it sound easy but Moyes could be replaced at the end of the season and we would be better off. Yes we are probably a couple of players away from having a good squad but I'm am absolutely sure Moyes is not the manged we need that would embed those players in an attacking system to get the best out of this and future squads. He has to go...

[nich the d]

Marty Feldman Which makes it all the more difficult to understand why Cornet didn't start instead of Fornals!

"We're behind where we were three years ago and the squad, in terms of form/confidence players, is much, much thinner - but you carry on chatting shit Nutsack"

[Westside]

"""What was very ebident was that when we conceded every one of our players heads went down. If you are the opposition side and see that you know we are there for the taking."" True today, but we are 5th in the league, for points gained from losing positions."

[simon.s]

"Not a great day and picking up injuries too. Still in the hat though. Was in amongst the Bristol mob who had a great day out. It’s what the cup is all about. Think we’ll still get through. Also saw Baldrick going in, maybe he’s a fan."

[Nutsin]

Violator Fuck off you missable cսnt! I‚Äôm sick and tired of hearing you whiney wankers week in week out complain about every little thing you can find. You‚Äôre starting to sound like a bunch of entitled Spurs fans. Why don‚Äôt you just shut the fuck up for once.

[violator]

"Nutsin, bore off you embarrassing prick. We were fucking shocking and fortunate to get a draw. Your wind ups are boring now."

[Nutsin]

You make it all sound so easy Billy Boy! We have brought in a lot of new players and we have a lot of quality now. As I have said before we are improving and we are heading in the right direction. Put your toys down and give it more time. Replace a few more players and we will be right up there. We’re close and you know it.

[onsideman]

Ron Eff 8:23 Sun Jan 7 You can ignore Nutsin. He probably watched in his pyjamas with a bowl of grits

[Gary Strodders shank]

What was very ebident was that when we conceded every one of our players heads went down. If you are the opposition side and see that you know we are there for the taking. We need a proper leader out there to fire them up again and get the heads up.

[BillyJenningsBoots]

"Nutty boy I'm resigned to the fact that he's not going before the end of the season... but are you happy with the way he sets the team up, how he has developed the squad brought players in and man managed the players... No you are happy with the points on the board and winning a 3rd rate cup... Today was another example of his short comings ... put our best team out and we can compete.. take one or 2 out and because he has shat on Benny and Fornals and hasn't rotated consistently we end up with players that just don't gel, still played out of position and he expects them perform... well anyone with half a brain (that includes you .. just) will tell you that ain't gonna work son. Bit he keeps plugging away like it's going to different when it clearly isn't."

[Sydney_Iron]

Didn’t watch the game and by the sounds of things when I do I will need the pitchfork at the ready………
