**** me, do the administrators of this site put thought into who they choose to make moderators? You're an idiot.
and I find it twice as surprising that this site is prepared to give a moderator title to someone who never offers any insight & indulges in shitslinging fests with fellow supporters at whatever chance he gets.I honestly don't know any supporter (Footy or Soccer), who is willing to write off the team, players or coach/manager as quickly as your flick that switch. It may be done in anger, but its very much your signature move.
That said I do find your insight into players when done without the knee jerk tantrums quite insightful, especially your scouting reports.
You should see the Geelong board after a loss (which doesn't happen that often). Goes into meltdown. Things get said out of frustration which may not be a true reflection of the held opinion.I honestly don't know any supporter (Footy or Soccer), who is willing to write off the team, players or coach/manager as quickly as your flick that switch.

Just like the geelong board, just need to sleep and clear the head. Although tonight is frustrating to watch however.
Better to get this before the window closes. Capoue, JV and Kaboul's like of pace exposed big time
Enjoy quoting 5 posts a second in the Fremantle Autopsy Thread when they get belted by the Swans. Lets see if you can slag each and every user knee-jerking.I agree, often what is said out of frustration may not be a true reflection of their opinion, however it compounds the frustration of everyone else and at times is more annoying than an bragging opposition supporter.
I have to agree with GrandBlue a bit here. Ericksen's profound lack of defending cost us on the break. Once the play slows he has casually moved into position but not in transitional open play.
Also tend to agree with jd2010 that we were severely exposed by our lack of pace in the back 4. Kaboul isn't even a CB more a holding CDM, isn't he?
We seem to have to many one dimensional players in our side (Townsend left footed, Kaboul's limited passing game etc.)
The only disappointing thing though Sabre is that we don't have any decent depth players to come in for these guys we want/need to depart.
As time goes by, it proves more and more the Gareth Bale money was splashed rather than spent accordingly on quantity rather than quality.
Can we say any bar Ericksen has been a success from the 11 (?) we brought in with the sale of G.Bale?
I think we were in a lose/lose situation with the Bale money, you could almost argue the money would have been better spent pumped into the new stadium. Soldado was clearly overs and done out of a desperation for a striker, I'm not sure the rest have been that bad, their just all we could get as a team that can't promise champions league.
Lamela looks good, hasn't justified his price tag but definitely has ability. Paulihno was worth the punt, so was Capoue and last week was the first and only time I have been excited about Chadli.
All have been better options than Townsend, Lennon and Naughton. Sandro has been a massive disapointment and Hotby hasn't been much better.
All that said, Liverpool will be right up there this year in challenging for the title, we came up against arguably the strongest side so far this season and they came to player what I'm sure they considered strong opposition.
We lack that boss of midfield that Sandro should have been before his injuries. A guy that makes the players around him look better than they are. That's what Gerrard does for Liverpool. He makes a shoddy defence somewhat capable and improves guys like Allen and Henderson to boss a game against our mids. Capoue and Bentaleb are both serviceable but they need that better player next to them. As does every single other CM we could try in their place like Dembele, Holtby, Paulinho etc. Very hard to judge the front 4's game on anything other than effort when the midfield is smashed and our defenders all look suspect.
