Completely missed managed again. Our manager isn't half as clever as he thinks he is.

You can say that again.
He thinks he can joke around with reporters.
But that will bite his ass...lets se what happens with Fulham on Sunday.

Nah wouldn’t worry sizzle even if you have to negotiate the play off round.

Probably end up team finishing 20th will end up winning the whole thing

Or learn to see out important games at home.

Did we throw the gala tie?

5 first team players plus Forster, Davies & Dragusin who are now first 11 players.

So that’s 8 players plus 3 youngsters.

Then we bought on solanke, Kulusevski, Sarr & Bentancur.

All that doesn’t equate to throwing the tie imo
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I reckon it's more likely he put out a side he thought capable of winning the game. Probably more indicative of underestimating the opponent than of throwing the game.

In hindsight, you could say it's worked out well that Forster, Davies and Dragusin were getting minutes because it will have helped them to be match-ready when they had to step in.

If you can't beat the 3rd placed side in Scotland you may as well pack it in

Tbf for some reason we've looked half decent in Europe and shocking domestically. Still plenty of chances to be had against us.

We owe the big gravy guzzler one, can't see him resting players v us or he will get in his big fat necks.

It was mental to ‘throw’ the galatasary game. I’ll never understand why people think things like that are ok.

Now we have to put out string teams in the remaining games, when we have a busier schedule and more injuries when it should be done and dusted.

Unfortunately coming fourth is more important to Enic than winning something

That is spurs now.

It also doesn’t equate to prioritising the points, playing our strongest side and getting the job done.

Instead we saved some players for the Ipswich game. How did that work out?

Now we pay for it.

It was a stronger line up than the previous Europe games

It’s like people don’t see how decimated we’ve been with injuries.

Every team rotates it’s impossible to play the same/best 11 every game nowadays.

If we can’t beat those 3 remaining sides, then we don’t deserve to be in that tournament, anyway

9 points should be a given…
