so what do those that boo want? i guess it's a better performance and a win.
so do those that boo think that booing is inspirational or inhibiting? or do they care less about the effect it has on the players and more about their 'right', their 'entitlement' to vent their anger?
the 'I've paid my money i can do what i want' mindset? the irony being that by booing they just push the thing they want further away.
i read it a number of times yesterday that the players weren't putting in effort, that they didn't care. do fans honestly think that players don't want to win, don't want to achieve, don't want CL, don't want to get picked for the next game? imo it's just the default, easy, catch-all position to say that players don't try, and i don't think it bears close analysis.
the OP makes a number of great points, and i can't help but agree that we've become an entitled, spoilt lot with ever-shortening memories in a place where patience and perspective are quickly drifting from view.
Spot on.
I think that we have seen a number of promising players crushed by the crowd in the past. If the crowd get on players backs then the players will be scared to take risks in case they do not come off. What we are left with then is players who take two touches and pass it sideways.
