TK-421

Good result, and a clean sheet which will hopefully help build confidence across the team. Players coming back from injury too. Onwards and Upwards.

Willock, man... how do you miss that???

BRUUUUUNO!!!!

Aye, about the Joelinton 'foul' on Wharton?

Gordon top knot???

De Cat for me, like.

Thank fuck for that!

Its the way he goes down so theatricaly, literally every time, whether fouled or not. Its probably making it less likely he's getting the decisions because of it.

Ramsdale saves that, like.

I know some people don't like these (or one of them) but they make a few valid points about Howes tactics, formation and inability/reluctance to change things. Frustrating. Worrying.

We almost turned a 2-0 into a 2-2 against these at home a few weeks ago, and they finished the match with 10 men!

Looks ok through my glasses

Being paid half a million a week, being Injured quite a bit, and then unavailable with...

I mean, they are really celebrating that in one of the most turgid matches ever played, never mind a derby match, they only beat us due to an O.G. and as shit as we were, they still couldn't break us down themselves? Absolutely shameless.

I thought he did ok, and good to see him get as many minutes in, and he'll only improve as he gets used to the team. But hopefully we'll get to see him and Wolte on the pitch together. We just looked better with a proper #9 up top, and whilst it was maybe fortunate, and he might not have known too much about it, it was having a proper striker with the instinct to be there that made the difference.

Three more fixtures moved for TV... Brentford (H), Spurs (A), Man City (A)

Seems to be throwing some (a lot) of it on the players. Whilst they do have to carry some of the blame once they cross the touchline, surely if the opposition have set up to counter our tactics, and the gameplan isn't working, its then on the head coach to have a plan B (or C), another formation to switch to, to try and overcome the opposition, and take the game back? Worrying.

Apologies if its already been posted, but this was a decent watch, following sundays match.

Just seen that they took a photo on the pitch! Fair play, but despite how much they claim to hate us, it seems there is nothing they won't copy off us.

Yeah, first half, we knew they'd be right up for it, come at us, with a home crowd behind them but they still had zero real chances, despite the high possession numbers. As I stated earlier, worrying thing is the fact we've struggled all season to break teams down, and we seem to be quite easy to play against. We also just don't/can't hold onto a ball and take control of games anymore, and I don't know if thats the players, or the way they are being told to play. Up to now, EH seems to be struggling, or reluctant to change the way we play, to get the best out of the players we have, or know how to make meaningful changes. This isn't me calling for him to go, but he has to start looking at how to change things, even if its not his preferred formation, tactics or players. The Champions league campaign has definitely papered over a lot of cracks (to a degree).
