He's onside you corrupt fucking wankers

Elanga has been much much better but I wish he'd play to the fucking whistle when he's tackled. Stood still with his arms outstretched not getting the decision twice now.

Decent start this but worried about their pace against our creaky full backs.

There'll be a logic to the selection, hopefully we can see that play out in a positive fashion. Hnnnnnng

Poor bastard.

Did Neville just call him Hurling Aahland?

Realised today I shouldn't have been such a nob after the game yesterday and tried to goad people. Want to go on record and apologise for doing so as it's not helpful. It was largely bourne out of frustration that everyone with a viewpoint that is somewhere in the middle seems to get pigeon-holed into Camp A: "HOWE OUT" or Camp Z: "HOWE CANNOT DO A SINGLE THING WRONG". Whereas there are camps B to Y that exist in the middle of that and a lot of people probably in Q-Y of "Howe is a fantastic manager, one of the best we've ever had, there's a boat load of mitigating circumstances as to why he's not able to get the team firing, however here are a few things he himself could do better in terms of matchday/selection". Watched his presser from yesterday and he looked very sad. Whilst I do think there's loads he could do better in terms of in-game management etc, there is also the fact that absolutely nowt seems to drop for us in the box or deflect in our favour. Really hope we get the rub of the green at Spurs even if the performance is still not good and can put a win up.

Spurs home record is shit, our away record is shit. Something has to give. Draw, probably.

I'd love to hear from some of the lads who were being ultra-condescending and know-all to anyone who dared to point out that things were shit in October/November. Can remember loads of phrases like "You'd think people would know better, you'd think they would learn, look at last time when we clicked and went on that winning run, Howe's sides always click by January, he's been hamstrung by the Wissa injury it'll get loads better when he's back".

He always puts it on himself and blames nobody else and it's really commendable. He looks tired and worn out in those photos and I've no doubt he's working himself into the ground to get it right. The only part that is frustrating with this kind of talk is he talks about learning from mistakes and yet we see the same issues with the setup or ineffective approaches to games rear their heads constantly.

Added absolutely nowt. Scared of heading the ball, scared of shooting.

That's why we sold him, he should have wanged a cross into the empty box.

We're doing that in the league.

No worse than King Anthony but bet he's dropped for it.

That's on the club. All three alternatives were injured in January and we chose not to do anything. There's plenty that Howe is culpable for IMO but having to select Trippier is not one of them.

Can only assume at this stage it's do more crosses and buy more athletes who can't pass a ball. If he's sat on some wild creative ideas we've not seen yet, now is the time to give them a shot.

Currently would rather see his chaotic, "sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit" mixed bag of mental energy than the 70 year old waste of space. First run down the channel seconds after coming on was with purpose and drive, he was second to the ball but the defender knocked it out for a throw cos he was scared of his pace and energy and that he might nick it. And he carried on doing this the whole time he was on. Wissa would have jogged over and the Brentford lad would have had time to take a touch, turn and pass to the keeper or another defender.

Fucking pathetic response to going 3-2 down. Utter shite all round - players, crowd and manager all totally fucking miles short.

I've felt sorry for him the last few weeks, but it does seem like he's starting to run out of road. Leaking goals for fun and he's not getting the best out of most of the players. No wonder the crowd are so sedate, it's boring as fuck to watch at the minute. Sling crosses into the box regardless of whether anyone is in there or not, repeat ad infinitum, and make sure to leave a yawning chasm where the midfield should be for teams to run through us at will. Absolutely no control over any game, it's either a basketball game or the opposition make all the plays. I want him to fix everything and there's still loads to play for but watching us at the minute is a bloody horrible chore and it's ruining my mood every fucking weekend, I'm sure it's the same for plenty others too. 4 away games coming up and given how shit we've been in nearly all of those this season he could really start to lose his followers.

We are a fucking disgrace.

He's allergic to shooting isn't he.

Get in. Now let's fucking use this as a platform and win the bloody game. Come on

Get your fucking head up man Osula. Wrong ball.

Not a pen that, hits his chest.
