    Chelsea with two goals ruled out, Barca looking dodgy at the back. Good game.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Not saying that it came from you but it was one of the biggest points that was brought up in general by pundits and a lot of those putting forward that he's a good choice. It still comes back to Frank is not getting the best out of the players whether the football is thrilling or horrible. The...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Have repeated this a few times, one of Franks biggest selling points is that he is flexible and will use adjust the system to the players he has and the opponents. Why does he now need players that suit his game plan and not adjust his game plan? Yes, the player quality needs to improve, but...

    Putin & Russia

    These talks are going to lead to nothing. Totally farcical way to conduct talks.

    Agreed there's a need to rotate players, but it's not being done in midfield where the problem lies. Play one of Palhinha or Bentancur and then rotate between Sarr, Bergvall, Xavi, and Gray (or play Gray instead of Palhinha and Bentancur). That gives us a DM and much more going forward.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    If he's playing mostly players that have a defensive mindset we're going to see this sort of football. If there is a player issue it's up to Frank to side line the players causing the issue and play the kids that will follow his instructions.
