Don’t- it’s so fucking obvious you’d think we might have had a go

dropping Ndombele at this point is akin to not starting Kane.
still team poch but next game against everton might be the final say

Honestly - it’s like he WANTS the sack.
He is talking total gibberish - contradicts himself every other week.
Plays players that want out other ones that want to be here.
changes team every five minutes.
We have not played well for 10 months, the CL was an unbelievable meh performanc.
He has to go NOW

His team selection and reactive, belated substitutions are unforgivable. We’ve got a great squad here and he’s not been getting the most out of it for a long time now.
His accomplishments with the club during this period of austerity are remarkable but the time has come.

Personally I think it’s no ones ‘fault’.
1.I think we’ve built a £1bil stadium so naturally haven’t been able to spend as much on players the last few years but we should start to do so the next few seasons as we did this summer with some promising signings.
2. Scouting and player recruiting could be a little better, we’ve wasted money on n’koudu, Jansen, Aurier sissoko etc when teams like Leicester have signed chillwell, pereria, tilemans and perez who right now would all get in our team, this is where levy can improve the set up on the footballing side
3. Poch - is a great motivator and good manager but time and time again he doesn’t get us over the line and makes some poor tactical decisions , we need a proven winner of a manager an actual world class manager(we’ve not hired one in the last 30 years) and for that manager to be aligned with player recruitment like Rogers is doing at Leicester, like klopp has done at Liverpool, someone like anchelloti or even benetiz or Jose (not that I like either of them) again levy could improve here with manager decisions but financially can’t really criticise how he’s run the club

I don’t think it was a sackable performance, we definitely created enough changes although Gazzaniga had to pull off quite a few saves as well.
However, picking Eriksen again was utterly baffling and even more so dropping Ndombele. Rose wasn’t bad but his form has been shocking and Davies deserved to keep his place after midweek.
And then there’s the subs... 88 minutes to take off the completely ineffective Eriksen and not introducing Lucas until the 83rd. It’s all starting to feel like groundhog day!

This just shows that he is not actually watching what's happening on the pitch. Otherwise he would have noticed Alli getting tackled every time he got the ball and Eriksen passing it to Liverpool every time he got the ball...!!!!

8 points off top4 - I think we can almost write CL off now.

POCH OUT, said the same shit when Sissoko got handed a new deal, he's lost his motivation & continues to pick the bastards that don't wanna be here

Some interesting viewpoints on this one.
I had to leave the match thread due to the melt down when the team was announced, one would have thought we would be on the end of the hammering the way some people were going on.
We lost the game, but at anfield to one of the best teams in the league. Yes, liverpool dominated us, but I didn't think our tactics were bad and for the most part they worked out. Pool are currently better than us, have more confidence and clearly better full backs which made a huge difference.
It appears to me that some people have already decided they want Poch out, so there is no room for discussion, rather they will highlight anything negative to continue to push that viewpoint.
Sadly, it doesn't make for a great forum, it just means we read the same stuff over and over again which gets a bit dull.
For me, I was pleased with the effort of the team and on another day we could have come away with something. For a team low on confidence a trip to Anfield was always going to be a tough game.
I wasn't impressed with Eriksen nor Dele this game and do agree that we should be moving away from relying on Eriksen. But my concerns over some of the team selections doesn't mean I think Poch should go.

I honestly feel that we could lose the next 10 league games and Poch would still be there.

Why do people keep saying this...we're still in October ffs long way to go whether Poch says or goes, can't believe people are writing us off already.

- Picking Eriksen, Rose and Toby after making a good move that paid off on wednesday is a joke and a slap in the face of the rest of the team.
- Dele needs confidence. He maybe gets that by playing the only position he is really good in. 2nd striker behind Kane.
And he plays him deep in cm where he has 0 effect at all.
- Youth (kwp, skipp, japhet, troy) did a fine job in the summer and even though rhe team constantly not turning up no one gets even a look in
- expensive buys in the summer are rarely used. how should they ever get in a rhythm and up to speed? Never match ready but this dross is?
- we are playing the same dross riding our luck for 75 minutes without making any tactical change or some subs
Poor poor management by Poch. I really hoped he can turn it around after wednesdays performance but i am more convinced than ever. Needs to go.
