Disagree. He was surrounded by Fellaini, McTominay, and Matic. Say that out loud and think about it.

What other top manager in the world would play this lineup? Serious question, can you name one? Pogba recieves the ball and his only passing outlets are Martial and Lukaku, and a flabby and sick Young from right back who can't beat a man.

Why is it every player we have looks better when playing for their national team? Can you name a player that has looked consistently better under Mourinho?
Normally, I agree with you. Jose has been a disgrace this season in particular. Its down to him. However, Pogba and majority of those players should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. They should not be let off the hook because Jose is having a disaster. These are players who are paid a ridiculous amount of money to be professionals. I'm sorry but Pogba's effort was not there. Its all good not wanting to play for a manager anymore but when you're a professional highly paid athlete, once you cross that line and get on the pitch, you have to put in 100% effort. Every single player on that pitch was out worked by west ham. So Pogba cannot use that as excuse that Matic and Fellaini were his options. Thats a shytty excuse I'm afraid. He can follow Jose out the door as far as I'm concerned.

I had a feeling of impending doom with these 2 games against Chelsea, right now it looks like Liverpool's catching two L's in a week.

Van Dijk looks like he needs a few days off. Nothing is working out for Salah, hes frustrated. Everything Liverpool are trying is getting snuffed out or coming up short. They can't find anyone open in space. They look exposed against a team that can hold the ball and make the right pass. Kante is putting on a lecture on holding the midfield. Hazard is Hazard.

Liverpool never seem to score at Stamford Bridge, I doubt I'll see a Liverpool goal in the second half. Next two games, Napoli away, City at home....

:snoop:

So play a bunch of giants, but not have the best crosser at the club playing or on the bench. :mjlol:

Bailly does go walkies abit too much and leaves a lot of space. Mind you he does need a leader/organizer along side him tho.
Our most experienced CB's can't help him or Lindelof with that cause one is literally a retard on the pitch (Phil Jones) and one is incosistnent (Smalling)

Should've given Tottenham what they wanted for Alderweireld :snoop: but I can see why the club won't give Jose the money.....

So you would've gotten rid of Hazard after he went through the same thing with Mourinho? :jbhmm:
