Colback comfortably being held at arms length by Capoue there as he attempted to 'harry' him

Aye cost us 3 or 4 goals already this season and it's going to get worse as teams figure out what a liability he is.

Haidara costing us yet another goal, going to be a long season

Should have been a pen that like, if Prodl wasn't holding Cisse we'd have scored there as Cisse would have been able to peel off him and would have been wide open.

Expected more changes tbh.

I hope so.

Alexei Smertin says there is no racism in Russia, that it doesn't exist http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/34297056 A particularly ridiculous claim is that Racism came from abroad, and incidents like fans hoying bananas at black players are just for fun . It's hard to see a bloke say that there's no racism at all in his country and it doesn't exist without automatically thinking it must be really fucking racist there.

Agree with Tooj's line-up, we need to be aggressive and hopefully gain a bit of confidence through some goals. I've little to no doubt we'll see Sissoko on the right though because for some reason that's seen as his position now despite him not being very effective at it. We definitely need to change the CM pairing as Colback and Anita clearly aren't working.

Risking the ball too much tbh, wor Colback would have performed a deft about turn and sent the ball back to either little Vurn or a centre back, cracking.

Aye I just remember it having a lot of average players in it, I'd forgotten it was actually 125 as well . Just had a look and the two U.S.A players who made it are both female players so he must have been forced to include the USA in the list and couldn't think of any American men

Aye bringing up the FIFA 100 list is ridiculous, was Pele not made to pick at least 1 player from every country that had qualified for the world cup? I think Mia Hamm is on the list ffs.

The thing is he wasn't rated highly by anyone I know to begin with. About the most glowing praise on here is along the lines of he's an average player who will give you 6/10 performances, so why are you so desperate to see him get called shit when most didn't really call him much better than that to begin with?

Fwiw Anita was better than Colback tonight imo. Anita dropped off Payet so got the blame from the commentators but Colback upon seeing this simply ran past him into the box rather than picking him up, giving him space to pick his place. I blame the two of them for the first goal. As Stevie says once Colback picked up that daft booking he was terrified to put his foot in, his passing was horrible too.

Aye it's a lot like watching Cattermole clatter into players for no reason whatsoever, giving away penalties and free kicks all over the place. No idea why you're on here btw your lot are fucking tragic as well and have played far worse teams than our useless lot.

Haidara is fucking crap. Was at fault for the second (admittedly it was a team effort but he could have just stayed on his feet and give Moses a slight degree of difficulty) but in general his play has been shit all season, regularly out of position defensively and constantly ruins attacking moves. Most said we needed a left back all summer and watching him struggle every week is going to get increasingly frustrating (alongside our pedestrian attacking build ups).

Aye, most teams have had more goals than we've had chances so far this season.

Really worrying performance this. Look fucking lost.

Sissoko in the centre, Aaron's and Perez on the wings and we look lively.

Perez again looking like he knows what to do with a football, if he doesn't get a start next week then I've no idea what McClaren is watching.

What a heap of shite this lot are.

Aye Haidara is fucking wank, any coaching he has had from when he started playing to now would have told him to stay on his feet in that situation. Not blaming the goal squarely on him mind the full useless 11 are to thank for that. We look fucking crap tbh and it's terrifying that we look completely toothless. I can't be arsed to watch the midfield duo of Anita and Colback anymore tbh as they're tragic as a pairing, if they are the starting pairing again next match I'll be switching off.

We have nowt here like. The CM partnership of Anita and Colback isn't working and needs changed, I don't know if Sissoko,De Jong or Wijnaldum are the answer but it needs changed around. I'd like to see Sissoko put there with Perez brought on to play wide.

Aye I'd prefer to see Perez up top alone than Cisse as Perez is far better at keeping the ball and bringing others into play. It's frustrating that Perez isn't starting because any time he has played recently he has been amongst the best on the pitch.
