Wasn’t West Ham until we rocked up as well?

That’s been a problem longer than this season tbh.

We are 0-2 down at home to a pretty poor West Ham and they’re looking more likely than us to score the 3rd. I’d say we’re doing rather bad indeed.

What the fuck are we doing? Lloyd Kelly has been absolutely terrible all night (as have others as well).

Well, this is rather shit tbh. No two ways about it.

Incredibly frustrating half of football. Started well, piss poor defending for their goal followed by panic stations for a while before descending into chaos with no control whatsoever alongside poor final balls and finishing. The positive thing I guess is that the second half can easily be quite a bit better if we get our shit together.

Wrong thread wanker. 🫡

So many silly mistakes in promising positions. Feels like we’re a stupid Schär card away from a NUFC bingo.

Except he often doesn’t even draw a foul. He just falls over.

Longstaff and Willock are having mares this far.

Willock looks like he’s having one of them sleepy displays so far. Other than the goal and minutes straight after we’ve looked OK and should be able to go on and win this comfortably.

Just give them another one why don’t you? 😫

The fuck is Kelly doing?

I don’t think we’ve been too bad tbh. But we’re not exactly forcing the issue just yet either. The two Anthony’s have had mares (AG10 and Taylor) and Yates should have been off. Oh , and Willock def should have had a pen. Probably should bring Gordon off for Barnes let the man save us again.

Gordon looks miles off it tbh. Tino getting better as the game progresses. Need to get Isak going ASAP. And how the fuck isn’t Yates on a yellow?

A lot of good play so far from us. If we manage to find a goal before HT we’ll run away with this in the second half.

That defending. 😩

Was Schär.

Stupid from Schär.

Always nice to win against Chelsea. Our first half was good with great tenacity and high pressing. Joe should’ve probably given us the lead after 2 mins already and we didn’t really look back after that. A bit too low and passive in the second half for my liking but given the amount of possession they had they didn’t really create much apart from Felix chance after Burn’s lunge. Once again I have to say though that Pope is in a really weird place after his injury. The sheer amount of “catchable” balls he tries to punch doesn’t really fill me with confidence - and alongside his piss poor kicking makes him a pretty easy target for the opponents.

First half we were great for 35 mins. The less said about the second (so far) the better. Shitting it here. 😅

First of all. I love Eddie Howe and what he has done for us. But I’m getting really fed up of hearing all this “2nd fastest to 100 pts after KK”, “Fifth most points in the league since he took over” and such. It’s not doing us or him a favour. We’ve been mostly terrible away for over a year, we’ve let in a farcical amount of self inflicted goals last season and this and we couldn’t keep possession if our lives depended on it. Add to that our flat midfield which gets overrun all too easily and the fact that we’ve spent a vast sum of money since that first window without looking better for it (last season and this) and I’d say that most of the good stuff in his record is from the first 1.5 season (rough spell from the very start excluded which was to be expected).

Getting slightly tired of shipping goals for fun tbh.

Isak ffs. Pope ffs. Embarrassing to let one in from there.

Every chance to get something from this. I honestly thought we were ran ragged first 25 mins but it’s been a bit more controlled after that. They are shaky at the back (as are we) so there’s probably a few more goals in this.
