Vigil v Brighton (home)

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wow.

Man City next at home in the league.

Utter disaster of a season now, if it wasn't before. Would've gone 5th win a win, heady heights.

As it is, now well and truly mid table.

[Bumble]

For 20 mins we played high tempo. Looked sort of good but didnt create huge amounts but looked on top. Yet brighton weathered the storm and won.

If man city attack like they can they could put 5 past us. 22 league goals this year and we concede in every game. That is not a good combination.

A new manager wont resolve this.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man City, Chelsea, Man Utd are the next three home league games. Oh dear.

With these matches and the lineups Freddie is pushing out, I think its safe to say our season is over and we will probably finish at the bottom half of the table.

As for a quick fix, the only manager I can think of that could stabilize this team and stop us from this freefall immediately is Rafa and its mainly because he knows this league already.

Another mistake or more dithering could lead to a relegation fight. I really hoped this day would never come.

Ljungberg is having a shocker to be honest, just a continuation of what we saw under Emery, can't believe he's still playing Xhaka.

We need a new manager now, I'd take Allegri or Simeone as well, proper disciplinarians.

Can't believe Freddie just sat on his arse at the end of that game instead of urging them on, total lack of leadership when they needed it

If Simeone is available now then yes we should take him. But honestly...this season is over anyway regardless of who comes in so I'd much rather wait until the end of the season.

We won't go down and we won't be finishing top 4 or winning FA Cup or Europa irrespective of who is in charge, the team has too many issues IMO.

I agree re Rafa. Would be a good appointment and I’m sure he’d swap us for the Chinese league.

[AFC Leveller]

People going on about Xhaka, what other options do we have? Guendouzi is a headless chicken who has no assists not any defensive nous and his display against Norwich was shocking. We don’t have anyone better than Xhaka and that’s why he plays every time.

I have said rafa before. He is used to coming into a crisis club. He has won things. He knows the league and more realistic than allegri and simone who would have a much steaper learning curve
