Last nights result against Palace whilst disappointing it shows that we still have a lot of work ahead of us,the squad is paper thin and seeing Nevs post about us being down to the bare bones is not telling us fans anything new,in these hard times the board are not going to be loosening the purse strings anytime soon and what Moyes may like i am sure he will not be surprised when told know we cannot afford it so loans will probably be the only kind of business we do if any in January.
i only caught the highlights of the game on MOTD and have to say i was extremely disappointed in our defending for there goal and playing a flat back four seems to have us back to our old shaky selves in defence and then bam out of the blue Haller does that and it was a worldy the Lovely Roy Hodgson saying as much but apart from that listening to Moyes saying we were flat and had no get up and go was worrying as this has happened on a few occasions already this season and he cannot put the finger on as to why this also adds to my worries.
Of course regardless of what happens from now until the new year we have to say its the first christmas in a long time that we go into not fearing the worse and however this season pans out for us i feel bold enough to say at least this time around we are not going to be fighting a relegation battle COYI and a merry christmas to all my fellow orgers xx
Salient lesson v palace, it
Salient lesson v palace, it really exposed the squad's frailety
Also showed fans that Benrahma
Still has a lot to learn....playing Leeds he looked magnificent but he new there players having played regularly against them in the chumpionship....against Palace he struggled and maybe it will teach him a lesson and has shown him the difference between the leagues and the work he will have to put in....As for new signings we will just have to wait and see as fans we all no the areas that need looking at its just a matter of the right player becoming available.
Moyes
His comments about Haller finding his form of late were embarassing, great goal but FA else to show and it's painful to watch him shrugging his shoulders as if he couldn't give one? We need decent forwards, an old guard who can score goals and is professional in his approach, so Giroud or Deko....or an out an out fruitcake like Costa???
I'd take Costa over Haller
I'd take Costa over Haller any day!
I would rather anyone other
I would rather anyone other than haller.
Costa
He's a proper old school forward and us fans would love him
a me to
moment there Nev
Me 3 that

When you look at it
Most teams dont play this kind of " striker " anymore, just look at Liverpool ,Man city, Everton even the scum, kane starts forom deep inside his own half now and Sonn plays anywhere ,that big JCB of a player up front went out in 2 decade's ago ,i wouldn't mind if he occasionally drifted back over the half way line but hes just not interested .
