So negative, why, Bruno had a chance to play it forwards instead back then we get into a mess and are fortunate Arsenal don't make the most of it, btw I blame tactics so ****ing negative, I get it from the start try and get a draw but once we concede the game is over if we don't bother to attack.

What about our players passing the ball to the linesman or the other team?

Not having any release up front puts massive pressure on defenders. There are 5 or 6 teams that we won't be able to live with home or away not having a pacey tricky striker just makes it more difficult.

Also think ryan and Duffy have been excellent today, Bruno has been unusually poor

Giving the top 6 teams in the Prem 80% of ball has a low chance of success. Who knew

Chelsea only had 38% possession at home yesterday and I think they have rather more quality players than we do. We are fecked before we start against the top six, damage limitation is not really such a bad idea. Not much fun for us but surely we could all see it coming?

Yeah, the way to beat the top 6 is the way Huddersfield went toe to toe with Spurs :facepalm:

So negative, why,

Because we'd be out of the game by half time otherwise. Next question?

Anyone that thinks we can take the top 6 on at their own game is seriously deluded. Keep it tight and we might nick the odd point in these matches.
