They are in a sticky situation now. If he wants to play front foot football, they are going to need to back him and bring in another 4-5 players at least. This lot are barely capable of stringing two passes together, you can't play attacking football with such poor footballers.

If you haven't got the players to play the type of football you want, then you have to adapt to get results with the players you've got. How do you play a pressing game with Shelvey in your side?

Not really sure what he's trying to do tbh. I said it yesterday as well, but how do you play a pressing game with Shelvey in your side? I desperately want him to succeed, but he's shown very few game management skills so far. Watford looked better organised than us tbh.

Lucky we didn't get beat tbh. That was woeful. Still not sure how we took the lead in the first place, never looked like scoring.

Need to make sure we don't lose this.

Fuck off.

Seems to be one of a clique who are sulking a bit and not really up for the fight this season.

We've defended the set pieces well if we are looking for positives.

Yeah

We don't really deserve to be winning this, just as well their finishing is shit.

There's spectators who have been closer to the action than Shelvey.

He just let the ball roll under his feet straight to one of their players. Not the first time either.

Other than the goal ASM has been shocking.

Solanki, Gayle, Mitro....there's a pattern there.

Fuck me Lascelles

Amazing how many strikers score bucketloads in the champ but can't do it in the premier.

Max dribbling instead of getting the ball to Wood again.

Yeah he looks shot.

Save Dubs!

100% this. Just play it simple now and then, in reality he could just as easily have conceded goals today when he's given the ball away needlessly in dangerous positions.

This is better

Committing men forward, but with no real intent or threat. Never getting in where it really matters, always a yard or so behind.

Trippier is the best, but everyone else bar Joelinton is the worst.

And if we do that, ASM and Fraser should be there sniffing for the loose balls, otherwise why are they on the pitch as one of the front three?

When do our players ever make runs into goal scoring positions? They like to sit back and hope someone else does it.
