Very worrying that the club isn't expected to make massive changes to this team in the summer because my god our defence is shocking. I've made the excuse that the team needs time to adapt but the truth is most of the players out there don't deserve to be wearing the shirt. We've refused to bring in quality players for a couple of years and instead waste millions on bang average squad fillers who we're now given new contracts to!!. How could the board have watched what occured last season and think the defence didn't need investing?.

These are the same players who got smacked by Bournemouth and Watford last season, how could they have expected anything different to happen?. A lot of the goals we concede isn't down to the system, it's constant individual errors that cost us, then the players just give up. It's soo clear when you watch our games that the players aren't following simple instructions and are just playing as individuals.

Sarri obviously isn't helping himself either, you can't sit their and constantly question your players mentality but continue to pick the same players every week. We have young hungry players in that team like CHO, RLC, Ampadu and Christensen who'll give you a toughness and hunger in their game and can do no worse but you refuse to start them over the same players you're always questioning, why?.

The club itself is in a very bad place atm. This entire team needs a massive overhaul, bring in the young boys next season, give the likes of Reece james, Abraham, RLC, CHO and Ampadu roles within the team, get rid of all the dead wood and spend on quality. Getting rid of Sarri won't change anything, these players aren't anywhere near good enough. When we won the league with Conte he said himself it was a miracle and cried out for better players.

He knew this squad wasn't good enough to continue to perform at a high level but the board didn't listen and instead made the team WEAKER!. The squad has been going backwards for years but the trophies we've won recently have clearly blinded the board into thinking otherwise. I fear for Sarri because it's always the easy option and most fans can never see the bigger picture. Of course he has his faults which aren't helping him but our problems run much much deeper than just the manager.
