Kevin Nolan, you absolute fucking moronic cunt.
how much do they cost

Watching Saints and it's the area where J Rod really lacks. Struggles to bring balls in and hold it up from what I've seen.
Good game this, probably should have been goals for both teams. Draw a fair result right now.
Expect Chelsea to use their squad in the second half and get the win, though. Hazard gonna do something crucial soon enough, guy is too good.

Sam has to drop him as captain. Fuck Nolan, what a pathetic, childish cunt. Ruined any chance of us getting 3 points out of this.
It wasn't even a serious tackle, it was just fucking petulance. Sure, you're frustrated, but you're helping fucking no one by lashing out like a moron.

Aspas has been horrendous outside of that pass to Henderson
Henderson has a lot of work to do on his finishing, as does Coutinho
Bruce should be off
Suarez is frustrated, needs to calma
Skrtel has been faultless

Eden is very dangerous. Mata is also playing but he hasn't had much play time this season. Criminal.
Saints are having good chances though, could be a surprise.

First time this season
Aspas passing has been poor when he's been on the right, he needs to get into the game. He's playing so much better centrally.
Henderson should of buried that chance and Coutinho does as well, but it comes with experience. Henderson and Coutinho are still under 23.
Suarez has every right to be frustrated. He is getting hacked by Hull, refereeing has been abysmal again.
Skrtel has been okay, not much to actually deal with, Hull have offered nothing going forward.

Dunno. He ran himself into the ground v Newcastle, and isn't that incisive anyway.
This is a game Gnabry really could've started tbh, with Wilshere deep. It's bad enough Ozil and Ramsey are out, but with an Arteta-Flamini pivot, we're lacking the guile to create something clear cut.

He has hardly played all season so give him a bit of a break. he was doing well in that role towards the end of last season.
Sounds like a right bunch of crap matches today, maybe things will liven up in the second halves? Probably a few too many hungover players or something.
Not sure what you're talking about re:Aspas, Hitcher, he's not done anything wrong. Been fine for me. It's like you're just looking to fault him.

Just watch his first touch or lack of it...

He's right to be frustrated, but he risks getting sent off when he's on a booking and still gesturing at the ref constantly. Need someone to draw another foul from Bruce's twatty son, get him sent off before he gets a chance to injure Suarez
Skrtel just looks more solid than anyone else in defense. The ball goes near him, it ends up out of play or at a teammates feet. With the other 3, it seems like there's always a strong chance of losing the battle and the ball bouncing off of Agger's back or something.
Cissokho needs to learn when to pass, when to hoof and when to carry the ball

Disagree completely, but will need stats to back it up
Up until the goal this match had 0-0 written all over it, need to impose ourselves some more and get the second before the 65th minute
Of the 10? odd touches that Aspas has had so far seems like most have them have been fine, I've not seen him lose the ball or be tackled really.
Reverting to long balls is soul-destroying though.
He's misplaced almost every pass he's tried to make. He's lost us possession in the last third more times than I can remember. Shocking half. I hope he proves me wrong but right now he doesn't look anywhere close to good enough for the Prem.
Majority of them have sent the ball right into Hull players feet.
And he hasn't been tackled because he can't keep possesion of the ball without it bouncing of him like he's a rubber wall.
Who cares as long as long as we get a goal in the second half.

Same here. At least the odds are we'll have a different manager in charge. Can't see Sam sticking around in the Championship and nor do I particularly want him to. I was fine with his brand of football when it was getting us consistent results that, while not setting the world on fire, at least saw us stable. But this season? Everything since the start of the transfer window has been an utter, unmitigated disaster (two tasty and entirely unexpected victories at Shite Hart Lane, aside).
I wonder if Sam will quit ahead of the end of the season so he can keep his precious "never been relegated" stat alive.

I am optimistic, it is not vintage stuff, but we are playing well and the chances are there.

Eh, I don't really care how we play as long as we win the game and get those 3 points.
Of course it would be lovely to win while playing beautiful football every week, but our system is not really that way now.
