Quote from: SimonDaviesEnjoyer on February 11, 2026, 08:06:40 PMI don't understand why people are complaining about us playing defensively... we can't get the ball because the opposition is that much better than us. If we weren't defending it'd already be 10-0.

It's not the defensive setup, it's the fact that silva has just gone with the predictable build up from the back against a team that will press with the entire squad. No mixing it up for playing against a better team, just go with standard and hope it works. He's about to lose 17/17 against Pep, you'd think after hitting 10 in a row he'd realise that he's getting it wrong

Hmm maybe Marco isn't the messiah after all!

He doesn't know how to beat teams with the high press!

10-0 or 5-0, it's still a loss.

Other teams have a go and beat them.  We've lost before kick off, is the problem.

Oscar Bobb on the bench thinking I should have stayed where I was. ::smile::

Easy for City, we have no midfield!

Brutal yet again
Utter sh** show

Complete rabbits in headlights

Change it round now and deal with what comes of it

This is a total mess from top to bottom

Looks like it's gonna be 10-0, anyway. Loads of teams have gone to City this year and pug up a fight, scored goals and made it difficult.  This is just a terrible tactic, and an appalling lack of fight. Embarrassing.

Also given we're playing a back 4 I am stunned he's started Iwobi because he can't defend against average teams that press us, so somehow away against City Silva thinks it'll be different??

Coastwalker

Disgrace of a performance from us,regardless how good they are.


bill taylors apprentice

We give the ball away and then pretend to be statues!

With TC And Lukic what else can ya do

Is what it is

No no no you don't just put 11 men behind the ball and not have a go. We have a capable team but we are a joke under silva and have been for a while dude needs to go. He has ran his race. Trying to defend for 90 minutes is comical

I am not holding my breath, but there may be some halftime subs...  :guitar-playHDs:

It was 4-1 at half time when we played them at the cottage. I was there and watched the fight back.
Cross your fingers. It looked dire then

Absolutely pathetic. Fans 100% due a refund.
