It's may well be just feelings of malaise that's snowballed from the transfer window but I'm a lot less confident in Howe now than I was 12 months ago, really can't lie. Posted why in my long post in the Bournemouth thread which I won't rehash. And I was one of his biggest advocates when the takeover went through, when he took over and was thoroughly backing him when 25% of this forum wouldn't have minded to see him sacked after 10 games in charge. Something just isn't right atm.

I personally would've rather bitten the bullet and sold just 1 of those 3, probably Gordon, and refreshed the team with the money from his sale rather than have the window we're currently having. As Isak is irreplaceable for me as is Bruno's character (and that we are incapable of winning matches without him even against the most rancid opposition). Regardless of that, we've been bidding for/chasing Guehi for the better part of a month so we have money to spend. If its true that we think Guehi and Guehi only can improve this team for £65m, it's an absolute joke.

Craig Hope, a journalist who loves driving agendas and sticking the knife in. Steve Bruce was 100% spot on about him. So am taking that with huge dollop of salt. But if that article has a semblance of truth, good lord.

Perhaps but when we've been waving ~£65m for Guehi for the better part of a month and have failed to secure him with seemingly no alternative, it looks more quite unprofessional especially for a club that stated in July that we expect to be in Europe. With how unsustainable we've looked so far, away from home for 12 months, we look nowhere near. And aye fully agree, I mentioned that in my long vent in the Bournemouth thread. We seem to be averse to being bold in the market on incomings and outgoings. Whoever that's down to I'm unsure.
-
I'd hoped it be and I imagine most on here thought so too if you go back to posts from then. I'm concerned about us this season if nothing happens. We look nowhere near top 6 as it stands, have seemingly continued our inconsistent at absolute best away performances, made next to zero changes to the team in incomings and outgoings and things generally feel flat.

Hard to look at this window as anything but a failure as it stands. Threatens to be 12 months of not a single first team signing. Imagine being told that after FT at Brentford back in May.

Leaked footage from our negotiations with Palace;

Sandro with the fans.

Thank god for that. Hope the draw is kind to us (it won't be). Something needs to change for us. We look stale as fuck.
-
Once again, for the most part rubbish away from home. First touch in their box in the 2nd half was in the 73rd minute, man.
-
TBF, we've been mostly poor away from home for 12 months. It's not just 3 matches. Agree with calling out the usual OTT shite.
-
We've stagnated through a lack of incomings/outgoings and it feels like nothing has been done to remedy our now year long issue of playing matches outside the NE postcode.
-
We haven't got the ball to him in good positions at all tonight and we seem to regularly not manage to away from home.
-
Mixed half, really. Great start and Tonali looks sharp as owt. But away from home issues from the last year are continuing; struggling to retain possession & control and inability to get Isak into the game.
-
Genuinely devastated for him, actually. He looks gutted.
-
Well done, Miggy.
-
Hope so, but it's 125/1 for a reason.

And Luuk de Jong in the January also on loan.
