  1. We've done OK but we've barely threatened goal other than the Shelvey screamer. So frustrating to watch all our build up play end with a fluffed pass or just dallying on the ball and having it took off us. No decisiveness and no composure, really shot of confidence.
  2. ASM giving the ball away far too much today
  3. The difference is movement off the ball is night and day to us, they're finding so much space.
  4. I get that but they're no good if he's stumbling over the ball and caving like a wet paper bag under any pressure and also has goal anxiety.
  5. Something has to click at some point surely, hopefully its tomorrow and we can go into the break with some hope. Next time we play the window will be shut so this game is massively important for a few reasons.
  6. Draw would have been the best result but that was the second best result we could have had. Still worrying how Nowich put 3 past them when we struggled so hard last week.
  7. Another score draw if we go ahead, if we go behind then a loss, no chance of a 0-0.
  8. On the contrary, I think the argument should be Joe shouldn't be anywhere near the box, he's powder puff in front of goal.
  9. It's the little dink over the defenders foot before he takes the shot that makes it for me, how do you do that at that pace??
  10. Still plenty of points to play for, not cut adrift but what we're seeing on the pitch is worrying, we're circling the drain. Can't really put a number on it until we see what players we're working with in February anything now is reactionary.
  11. I said this a couple of weeks ago, he has a philosophy and the players are the extension of that, that's why their weaknesses are so glaringly obvious. He's too rigid in his ways to his detriment, Rafa (I know, I know) knew how to utilise the strengths of these players while covering their weaknesses, it wasn't pretty but it was functional, people want pretty you get this though.
  12. Bully turns victim turns bully again and now he'll be crying victim again from any backlash he gets. Like the boy that prods the hornets nest with a stick and cries when he gets stung. Prick.
  13. I really want him to succeed, you can see what he's trying to do and with the right players it could be really entertaining to watch. But early signs have been disappointing, that's not entirely his fault but he needs to shoulder some of the blame.
  14. I'm hoping we get, at the very minimum, a CD and a CM before Leeds, we simply cannot go into that game with the same squad.
  15. Proper victim mentality, at no point does he intimate or suggest anyone should be unhappy with Howe.
