Andy

I thought he was comfortably the best of the three, but that isn't a huge statement.

In fairness not everyone is able to attend every match. I work every other Saturday, for example. It doesn't lessen someone's opinion

We'll turn up on Wednesday, absolutely guarantee it. I've got no concerns about us against the bigger teams at all, we're just absolutely guff against the midtable fodder for some reason.

I don't think he has a "bad attitude" but I do think he plays within himself a lot. And his concentration and composure are almost non existent.

The other teams outside of the current top 3 are just as inconsistent tbf. Even City.

Very strange. I'd much rather Hall had been making that cross a few minutes ago than Kelly whose left peg seems roughly on par with Dan Burn's.

Shades of the run up to the cup final in the 4th place season, where our form dropped off. The second half just hasn't been good enough at all.

Good dummy by Willock tbf, Gordon should've been more alert

Aye I thought the reaction to the first half was a bit hyperbolic, but the second half has definitely been poor so far. Eddie needs to make some changes asap. I'd have Joelinton off asap.

Pretty comfortable half tbh. We haven't controlled the game or played at our best, but we've certainly looked by far the more dangerous team.

The other two have been worse?

Was the same in here during the Southampton game.

They've had a lot of the ball but haven't done anything. 0 shots.

A mere 30 yards away from being the greatest goal in premier league history

In hindsight, maybe. Wilson was still flying for us when we sold Wood though.

3 minutes to come to the conclusion that he was about a yard onside. Shite.

Good servant, good move for all. Feels a little bit iffy letting him go without a backup RW to replace him, but we can't hold on to players like him forever.

Until we start selling players for decent money, almost every transfer window will be like this, especially January. There's only so much you can do with commercial deals etc. The reason the likes of Chelsea can spunk money all over the shop is because of how good they've been at selling down the years. It's a difficult situation as the only players in our squad with genuine value are the ones we need on the pitch.

Aye I feel bad for the bloke (with the caveat that I revoke that if it turns out he's been a bit too dodgy in the DMs at any point, I think there were some rumours when it all broke) It should be obvious enough that there were mental health issues there from the very fact that his decision making led him to record videos that could jeopardise his job, as well as snorting coke before games. Those are not generally the actions of someone who is thinking soundly. We tend to hold refs to the same standards as police officers or something. They're just blokes flashing brightly coloured cards at other blokes kicking a ball at the end of the day, regardless of what we as fans think is at stake. Aye there's some professionalism required, but I personally don't think the coke or Klopp comments warrant the massive outrage and explosive coverage that this received.

Is there a more useless analysis tool in football than Opta Probability btw? 45% chance of top 5. So basically we might or might not. Aye class insight cheers.

Canny mad that we're 8th in home form and 5th in away form this season. We've somehow managed to flip that entirely on its head. I'd be confident we can sort the performances at St James's out, so that at least bodes well.

Aye. Draw and loads of injuries for both teams would be ideal.

Honestly Howe should have subbed Schar off for that. Absolute Sunday League defending.

Wouldn't have scored that without bad defending, couldn't miss, bottom half here we come

Is my stream 45 minutes behind everyone else's and we've lost this game? some iffy moments but we've been fine Just because they're bottom of the league doesn't mean we're just going to steamroll them, they've shown loads of times this season that they can be dangerous in games without scoring then have kamikaze moments at the back
