We need to beat Chelsea, they’ve been having the upper hand for sone times. It needs to change.
It is my sincerest wish that anything and anyone to do with Chelsea football club is utterly and comprehensively destroyed, annihilated and for the most part rendered dead.
They fucked it in the last few minutes and handed the title to the scum.
I’ll keep on saying it. .
Sack Eidevall from our beloved team.
The man’s poor decisions keeps on drawing us backwards.
With Eidevall incharge, i don’t see us winning any trophies.
Can’t really blame him for the loss of our two best players in Beth and Viv. They would have been the difference today!
Wow.. you really Can’t blame him?
How do you watch Stina Blackstenius stink up the place for 90 minutes and the coach could not change her? How does he watch Frida overrun in midfield for 90 minutes and not sub her?I never thought I would see Nepotism in European football.
Also, what crime has the talented Iwabuchi committed to always get snubbed by her coach?
If ever we needed proof that we needed a CF who could put away chances that game was it. Stina and Lena are not the answer, they couldn’t hit a barn door right now, juries out on Foord, she does at least make a nuisance of herself, winning fouls and penalties.
2 points thrown away!
