The Prophet

That looked very tight, no replay?

Temporal awareness, reminds me of Joey using the thesaurus in Friends.

Look at Wissa on Friday. He took up two or three really good positions, but Gordon and Barnes fluffed the final ball.

Our main source of creativity is Bruno.

I respectfully disagree. We're not creating enough chances for a striker to thrive.

Yuuuurs, writing off executives as well as players before they've got their feet under the table. NO in it's element.

...and all of those games haven't been exclusively poor.

I don't think anyone who comes in will a "season saver". They'll be young cover for full back and midfield.

Was about to post something similar. The whole attacking unit looks dysfunctional, regardless of personnel.

There has been... Reasonable criticism of Howe Unreasonable criticism of Howe Those who want Howe to be sacked Those who have become entitled or spoilt Those who love to moan, all of the time, regardless of circumstance The dissent has varied quite widely. I'm not sure why you've grouped it all together to turn yourself into some kind of e-martyr.

So did we to be fair. We took out Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool on the way to winning a trophy.

The rapture?

Off the field they were, in terms of having a settled ownership structure, new training facilities and a well established academy.

We're vulnerable to Tino leaving to City and Tonali to one of the big boys regardless. I agree, no Europe increases the chances. This idea there would be a mass exodus of players if we don't finish in a European spot seems a bit hysterical though.

Why?

They're well coached at what they do. They sit in a very well organised midblock and break with pace, but they've also undoubtedly rode their luck at times this season. Given the cushion they've built up, they should comfortably finish top five from here amd you'd expect them to go deep in the EL.

Villa dog dirt again, but clawing their way back into the game...

Glad this lad is getting the criticism he deserves after *checks notes* not playing.

How did we lose to this West Ham side?

Where is this "we haven't played well since the cup final" nonsense coming from? Seem it a few times now.

That opportunity where Barnes goes through but pulls it back to Gordon and finds a Man United defender, rather than giving Wissa a tap-in at the back stick sums it up.

My bad, missed that.

Agree overall, but not so much on the less point. Still got a cup semi final and the Champions League play off to look forward to.

Reuben too I think, but you can't imagine he'd be there from a target perspective.

Howe doesn't select our targets by the way. It's been covered by the Athletic, but we look for unanimous approval across the recruitment team. Howe gets the final "OK" as per most major clubs in England. With that in mind, you could see how a senior voice in that team could offer fresh ideas. It sounds like Mitchell failed because it was his way or the highway.
