£100m
We spent £100m improving last season’s team.
£100m.

Last season’s team would destroy this pathetic bunch.

I wondered if Trafford had left it whether it would have missed.

This team is shot, reminds me of derby when they came up and amassed 10 points are some such. How and where they get the confidence back i do not know.

Muric would’ve come out and tackled Billing

Vitinho wouldn’t have handed the ball to Billing if Muric was on the pitch

I'm not convinced that's Traffords fault, giving the ball away in soft positions is the problem. The keeper is right to be up the field in that passage of play

A week of the few people who want him in the team pretending that everyone else is happy that Trafford let that in will be fun.

So many fans revelling in our players playing shite. Very strange mentality.

The delight in Trafford being lobbed is sickening.

Call yourself supporters.

Cracking pass to Billing from our lad though.

You’re right about Trafford. The reality is that if Muric comes in we will continue to get battered because we’re tactically, physically and mentally a million miles away from good enough. We’re one of the worst sides I have ever seen at this level on current performance.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 4:40 pm

Vitinho was average at best in the Championship. He did that exact same thing many many times.

CryerBFC · Post by **CryerBFC** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 4:40 pm

At least if Muric was playing his starting position would have been edge of the centre circle and could have put a challenge in after Vitinho’s shite touch

Lol.

Have we even scouted Bournemouth? Have we tried to exploit their weaknesses? Have we had any sort of gameplay whatsoever to try and get something from this game?

I'm just not seeing it.

Only one person to blame and that's not Trafford or any of the other players VK has f@@ked thing beyond belief this season.

Boss Hogg · Post by **Boss Hogg** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 4:41 pm

Kompany is just stubborn picking Trafford. Just not good enough and nowhere near ready. His team selections are becoming a joke.

I think our armchair supporters are shot...

Far from revelling in it. Bemused by the selections is more the case. UTC.

In a big way. But Vitinho also culpable. Inept all round.

First mistake he'd made all game after a good performance, but a costly one. Often are at this level.
There goes his chance to keep the shirt.

Agree completely. They are playing without a holding midfielder today too!

Muric should be playing and everything, but that's Viti's fault, and the other defenders for not closing Billing down.

Apart from allowing their player an open goal in the 1st half?

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 4:43 pm

Seen a few replays of that goal and Trafford not to blame for me, Vitinho gave it away cheaply and the wind took it flat over Trafford’s head. On another day he saves it but not an error.

The passing is the problem, weak, insipid, no tempo, purpose or energy to it.

Look devoid of confidence, as do they to be fair.

I have seen enough in the second half that we are going down, we can't get out of our own half against a rival team down at the bottom . No more excuses Vincent.

There’s wholesale changes every game. He doesn’t know his best line up. That’s half the problem.

Sack Kompany and it’s the start of the long road to nothingness.

Well, that’s what I said when we dismissed Dyche, so it’s worth saying again and praying I continue to be wrong.

With the position Trafford adopts so far out of his area while we are in possession.. that goal was always going to happen and I’m surprised it’s not been before this game

That's the most frustrating thing. Weeks of hearing about how crap performances were only crap because of the opposition. According to some our season started last week and we've been pasted 3-0 and now getting done 2-1 in two of the most uncompetence games I've ever seen against poor opposition.

Kompany making multiple changes every week because he has no idea how to fix it yet not changing players like Trafford has been madness. We have to make some serious changes, the fans won't watch this all year no way.
