sorry, its rather rude to expect steve parish to not take a holiday, afterall most us fans have 4 every year.

lets not blame the loan signings as actually FLC & TRM were the only 2 players to come out of the game with merit.

im not saying £50m on one player but we do need 2 decent, experienced CB's. reidewald looked ok but will take time to adaot to the PL, but its clear he is no marquee signing.

also it wouldav been irresponsible to sign sakho as soon as the window opened especially as he had a ligament problem, but if he is fit we need him now...and i bet he would come

I'm not so sure even with Alardyce we would of spent 30mil on Sakho. Perhaps another loan if Pool allowed or he may of spent 10mil or more on a cb that could fit in alongside Dann or Tompkins. That and perhaps a right back to either play in place of or push Ward is all that is required for our back four. Two good players in each of the back four positions is all that is needed and we need someone in Delaney's position so that he is the covering player for that new guy. Instead we are going to play with 3 at the back with wing backs for which we don't have the players let alone cover to do that. Madness!

It was embarrassing today. A total car crash. From where I was sitting no game plan, no one seemed to know what there were supposed to do. The 2 loan kids were the only decent players.
So we need 2 experienced CB's?? Like who for example? And how much will they cost?
We have 2 decent wingers already in Wilf and Andros and who was wing back? Joel Ward!
Its as if the manager had never met the players before or undertaken any training sessions with them. He appeared to be completely bewildered as to what was going on.
Am I wrong?
I am decidedly apprehensive about Liverpool next week. Defend like this again and we will be taken apart.

So it appears that we played 3-4-3 during this game! And it changed to the perfect system for us that I described!

Only 28 years since out last real disaster at anfield and a display with yesterday's tactics will see another 9 being shipped Need to revert to a 4 5 1 and if De Boer wants a new system practice it in training to get it right not in a premier game would make more sense at the moment

We set up with 3 at the back next week and we'll get dumped on. Has Frank De Pardew got the humility to change?

Bingo.

Pardew got axed because he couldn't swallow his pride and admit his team weren't adjusting. Allardyce flourished because after a few games he worked out the team's strengths and played to them.

If FdB is quick to adjust things like Allardyce did then fantastic. I think that's all anyone is saying.

I supsect some of the booing was the frustration of having to spell it out to a third manager in a row.

And I was there - seem to remember my friendly office mates plying the walls with A4 paper with 9.0 on each page. How I laughed!

Granted it wasn't the best of performances, but it was never a 3-0 game. We need to tighten it up in defence before we face the better teams or we will get taken apart.

The one plus from yesterday was Loftus-Cheek, what a player he will be. We never do first games of the season for some reason, never have done, never will i guess...

What I don't understand is why we didn't play the same team as in preseason.. We were starting to look ok vs schalke.
Why was ward even on the pitch? He hadn't played RWB at all so he wasn't used to it.. and LRC in the front 3? Then replace Milo? All very strange.

It already takes a while to change to a new system. Throwing in curveballs like this doesn't help.

I was at a wedding and so couldn't be there - highlights only for me.
Bloody dreadful shipping three and scoring none at home agsinst a weak side.
Forget systems etc - our lot didn't look interested and Huddersfield did.
Capitulation in the first game - not good at all!!
