How long do we have to put up with this nonsense before we accept that Sarri is just not up to the job of managing a top Premiership club! Get rid now and give Zola the job for the rest of the season.

Yep let's sack another manager, that will fix it! Let's overlook the fact that this team has been on the decline for a long long time and we don't have any leaders. At this point I think Hazard is gone both by the way he's playing and how the team is playing and I honestly wouldn't be that bothered. He's become so used to being the only attacking force it has actually become our detriment. pass the ball to Hazard stop and wait for him to do something rinse repeat. Looking forward to seeing what Pulisic can do in his place. We also need a goal scoring midfielder and some fullback who will provide some serious competition. Sacking the manager is not the answer and is only putting a bandaid over the issue, I had the same opinion when we sacked Conte. We can't keep doing it or we'll have no one left to hire.

i agree maybe sacking somw of these over paid superstars is the better option an the person whos responsible for buying so many rubbish players.

100% agree hazard has become the problem very good player narrows the pitch hardly ever shoots never goes to by line and crosses always cuts in whatever side of pitch he's on same as Pedro and willian
I feel for strikers torres costa less so, bats morata giroud and higuin in 2 matches have seen no service whether crosses from by line not 40 yards out from middle of pitch by azpi or through balls our forward play for a long time is narrow, predictable, cut back in, no width, pass back, pass across, and pass back again
Most teams are wide at back and get narrower going forward formation wise and we pass around this semi circle endlessly since conte and now sarri why OUR PLAYERS NO LEADERS NO BOX TO BOX MIDFIELDER NO CREATIVE MIDFIELDER NO NO NONSENSE CENTRE BACKS NO LONDONERS CARING. NO CENTRE FORWARD GETTING SUPPLY. THE ONLY PLAYERS IN THIS TEAM I WOULD KEEP ON HEART
KEPA
LUIZ NOT A GOOD GAME BUT HAS HEART
AZPI
KANTE
GUTTED.

It’s either sack the manager or change 70 percent of our squad to the players he likes.

gianfranco gola, GUTTED? Is he a new signing?
30 Jan 2019 23:31:31
I agree, a lot of people on here will be like “it’s his first seasonâ€, but they’re deluded, we should not be in this position, we’re lucky that teams like Arsenal and Man united have underperformed.

I'd agreed. if sari was to change things and learn from his mistakes but he doesn't . same team and same subs every week.
players out of position
I know CHO is young and rare but what does Pedro or Willian offer.

No, no, no - I'm sorry chaps but I can't let this go without reply. In normal circumstances I would totally agree that it is premature to be suggesting sacking the manager - but, I'm sorry, this is different: the manager is useless! Hazard looks back on form and happier last week playing on the left - so Sarri decides that he should be played through the middle tonight - why? I correctly predicted his substitutions at half time - any one of us could - the one player that he refuses to ever take off is Jorginho - why? Losing 2-0, Sarri replaces a proven goalscorer with Giroud who scores once in a blue moon - why? Does Sarri have a plan B - why not? Every team we play now high presses on Jorginho and stops us tactically in our tracks - we can see it - every manager we come up against can see it - but Sarri can't see it - why? CHO, even at 18, cannot perform any worse than Pedro and on a par with Willian - we can see it - every punter on TV and radio can see it - Sarri can't see it - why? And last but most - Kante is not and never will be an attacking midfielder - Kante is the best defensive midfielder in the World - but Sarri refuses to see it - why? Why, I'll tell you why, cos Sarri is a middling manager which is probably why he has got into his 60s without ever having won any trophy. These are the 'whys' Sarri has to go.
