Absolute headloss here. Ref letting everything go. Was always going to happen

Has anyone checked to make sure they haven’t got an extra player?

Still can’t dive to his right.

Again. Horrendous playing out from the back and not managing their press. Think we might have learned our lesson and tried to get to half time. Worked our way back into it and now shat the bed (again).

Horrendous trying to play round their press from the back. It’s like they’re targeting Burn, Botman is uncomfortable that side and Hall is having an off day. We all know about Tino’s limitations on the ball. We give it back to them almost more than if we went long. I hate to go all John Beck. But feel like we could try and turn them round now and then. Might tire them out even more for later in the game and all.

Again. Our centre mids on the edge of the box are never a goal threat. Tonali would be. But he won’t find himself there much.

Hall looks like he’s had a heavy night and this is a Sunday League game. Miles off it.

Bloody hell. We’ve been awful.

Stop. Feeding. The. Worm.

We usually drop off after we have made subs. Most of the bench players are quite a level off the ones they are replacing.

If Sa didn’t make a worldy save off Murphy and Isak’s shot was inside and not outside the post. We would have scored 5.

I beg your pardon?!

Am I being double whooshed. Or do people keep reading wormy’s posts and take them seriously?! “He’s winding you up mate.”

I love the Toon Rooster matchday clips Such daft shite. But always makes me chuckle.

Schar put the generic matchday post up on insta that most of them do. So looks like he’s in the squad at least.

Pretend gun gestures are banned. Buying the real thing is absolutely fine

Yeah. There was a thread where we were discussing keepers heights always being listed wrong. May have even been in here? Not a chance in hell he is 6 6”.

The mackem in the away end who does the cross gesture just before the second penalty I know lots of players look nervous in the run up and still score plenty. But Isidor looked like he was shitting himself for both misses.

Seriously, though. So much of that is just simply him recycling the ball. But it’s hypnotic. He is the best in our team for coming back from the wrong side of the ball. But still nicking it without fouling the player. I know it’s a highlight reel. So you can always make players look good or bad in isolation. But I found it strange that were some really positive bits from the Chelsea away game. I remember him being anonymous and having a bad game. Similar for Everton. Thought he was meh like everyone was on the day. But half that video seemed to be from Goodison

“Who else has seen this filth?!”

Yeah fuck coming back for the second half. Might go and wank with some sand paper or something. Probably less painful and more enjoyable than this.

He has the ability to just dink it over the defender and hurdle the challenge almost in one motion. He was rapid that Agbadou and all. Looked a good, physical defender. Just glided past him.

Connor Roberts is fucking shite.

I do. I know you should just take each game as it comes and not look back or forward too much. But we have some tough looking away games left and a really tricky run to end February. I know we have made up points elsewhere. But I already feel like we have dropped 6 points against two teams we would be expected to at least draw against at home. Plus some crap away results to boot. I think our home form is what will get us over the line for Europe. So say we’re targeting, what, 25-30 more points for top 4 or 5? We’ll need to rack up some more wins at home in games like this IMO.

Burnley looking a bit like Swansea under Rodgers or Brighton under I think, Potter? Loads of possession and passes. Fuck all happening. Just seen they’ve only scored 31 this season. Nearly the lowest in the top half.
