Ramiro Funes Mori gets U23s run-out

Oh wait... 2-0 now after 26 mins. Come on, show some fight....

I tried to find a stream but no luck. Sounds like I'm not missing much. Think Funes Mori has started tonight.

It hasn't updated for the last 50 minutes so perhaps they're already fed up with looking at the goals they score against us.

Why would you assume that? The article doesn't state he did badly except for one clearance (wow, take him out and shoot him then) Just curious, as it seems you are hoping that to be the case. How sad for you.

Maybe you should get behind him and support him as he makes a return from a lay-off of almost a year. Nah, just keep hoping for the negatives. Carry on then.

Maybe something to do with the fact we're currently stuck with Morty Seinfeld as manager?:

I've just seen Deulofeu (lovely goal and skill) at Watford and it typifies our shambles of a club. I reckon if we lose to Palace and Watford in the next fortnight, you can really understand that the Championship is on the cards.

U23s unusually poor against Arsenal tonight and it would seem defeatism is rife from top to bottom at the moment. No wonder Allardyce wants to get to the 40-point mark quickly cause he knows we wouldn't win a fight. It could be a very awkward 3 months for us.

Please read this, Directors, and take on board this dreadful situation you have allowed to happen. We will be lucky to get 20,000 crowds in the lower leagues and no Sky dosh... which would take us out for a long while. Reminds me of Aston Villa, Bolton, Ipswich, Forest, Leeds – just to mention a few. Once great but they'll never come back.

We are just clinging on at the moment so imperative to get 40 points quickly as Sam rightly says because we look worse than the bottom clubs and if it weren't for the uplift when he arrived we'd be in the bottom three now. Mr Allardice knows this only too well and there's fuck all anybody could do about this lot.

Who'd come as a manager if what could happen in reality now does so in a few months? Pray it doesn't!!!!

Mr Moshiri and Mr Kenwright have plenty to think about I reckon. There won't be much money about then lads.

Sorry to be a doom and gloom merchant but it really is awful after all these years and the teams I saw under Catterick, Kendall and to certain extent Moyes (his team's had at least fight). Thi si just rubbish!!! Awful!!!!!!

I'm not saying we should play a back three (especially with no left-footed LWB) but he certainly helps the shape of the team.

I welcome him back and hope to see him improve our back line in the not too distant future.

Slightly off topic here, but watched the Watford v Chelsea game, and Delboy was outstanding for them scoring one, and winning a penalty too. He was even dropping back and helping out, on the rare Chelsea forays towards their goal.

Another one let go by Koeman, and presumably we had the chance to bring him back, but no, let's pay £27M for an unproven guy who seems to be out of his depth instead.

By the way, he was given a floating role behind the two strikers.

Reiss Nelson looks a player. Only 18 but the best player on the pitch last night along with Nketiah and their new Greek lad Mavropanos (where was Walsh on that find?).

And he can kick people, something we also seem to not do anymore.

Geri was here three years and more often than not flattered to deceive. I will also argue one good game for Watford against a Chelsea side in dreadful form doesn't warrant immediate status as a world-beater (just ask Steven Naismith)

The problem is they will have been coached how to play that way on the training pitch, you will just be told to watch and play that way. Also, you will told to work hard for the next two months to accumulate enough points quickly and then you can have a early summer break.

"Fuck the paying fans and bank your exorbitant wages, like me, the Manager. Don't worry about the Board over the Summer, I will be able to bullshit them and we all will have a extended Summer holiday next year too. Also I was able to handle the England Clowns (they made me Manager) and getting a Winter Break out of the Premier League will be easy peasy. "

The mentality of our current Manager stinks to high heaven.

At least he knows how to kiss his badge though 'eh.

Everton have become the extended career option, providing further career options for has-been footballers.

Funes Mori is no more the Solid defender we have been missing all season than Bolasie is the key creator to improve performances and take us to the next level.

I'm happy to have them both back in the squad and there worth giving a go but they are both inconsistent and certainly no better then what we have.

On the positive side as per my recent post regarding the 5-1, any Arsenal side can beat anyone when on form and have a terrific style of play. I'm happy to just put to one side and move on.

Plus, Funes Mori is far better than Williams so a good improvement. Sam needs to realise Williams and Schneiderlin need sending back to school.
Play Davies as the box-to-box midfielder he is.
