The English Football Thread

We're close to breaking FFP rules apparently so we can't keep throwing money around.

Still 30k+ and the away fans are travelling well, 4k tonight again.

It's not just about money, I've genuinely not seen the team play a good 90 minutes in well over a year, the cup semi vs Liverpool I think, or Sunderland 4-0 in a league match. That's more than ****ing two full seasons ago.

I think a lot of it is psychological as well, you need quality and a tactics plan to achieve success obviously, but I mean I knew straight away if we didn't start well it would go downhill fast, that's the atmosphere at the club, as soon as we concede or get a bad result you think 'oh no not again', we can't bounce back because the negativity sets in. If the fans feel like it the players must as well. Albrighton and Clark have been excellent since they fucked off to other clubs. We've signed top players from other clubs in the league who look useless in our team. Momentum and confidence is massive in football.

I would get Dr. Steve Peters in or something.

was gonna mention this. there seems to clearly be huge coaching issues over the last few seasons. a lot of players with flashes of brilliance but nobody has been able to pull it together consistently before moving on. i haven't watched since they were in the prem so i can't really comment on the team now, but from you've said it's more or less what i expected.
