No matter how pissed you are, how stupid do you have to be to bring a lass back to your gaff when you have a ring camera that the Mrs can access

Whatever we need to do PSR wise to give him a new contract we just need to get it done.

Has made a few errors this season , still a decent goalie but he's clearly not at that level he was before his injury and the season we were 4th. I think we will look to upgrade in the summer if we can afford it .

He definitely looked a lot better last season , still think he is a better player than he has showed this season. Hall now looks the better player, not that we should be comparing the two really.

Probably less than you expect, sure a big chunk of them 10 assists came in that 8-0 win against Sheffield United . He has been poor for the best part of a year now.

Pure class, he plays like a more athletic version of Bruno at times as well.

He was an excellent signing no doubt but he has let us down massively these last few months, said at the time but he should have been sold to Bayern last January, would have helped a lot with all that PRS carry on last summer as well and all the unsettling it caused .

The weird thing about the Villa collapse is they have had nowhere near the amount of injuries we had last season and the champions league is also far easier this season than we had it last season.

It's been a crazy season so far , if someone had said pre season we would be level on points with Villa and 4 points behind Man City after 13 games we would all have taken it , it's the awful way we are playing pretty much every game that is the worry .

We have had a pretty easy start to the season fixture wise as well , we still have to go away to 7 of the 9 teams above us for example , this only being 4 points off third makes things sound a lot better than they are and that's down to the relatively easy start to the season fixture wise .

I would describe his shagging about behind his Mrs back as more him being a fucking idiot than calling it personal issues mind . He can do what he wants in his spare time but he has let us down massively this last year or so.

It's a given we will play well in this then everyone will ask why we couldn't do the same against West Ham or Palace , we will probably still get beat but it will be a plucky defeat .

Yeah someone above said we have only been poor for 13 games but it's a lot longer than that , you could argue we have been up and down for the best part of a year now, since we beat Man United at home this time last season when it should have been about 5-0 we have never really consistently looked anywhere near our best.

He was never good enough for Liverpool even in the summer , I suspect they knew that and that's why they didn't end up signing him. When he's on form he's a very good player but not elite , a lot of his game that makes him good is when he's pressing relentlessly and working hard like last season , he's only half the player when he's not bothering to do that like this season.

It's a shame the way it's turning out , I love the bloke and would still give him this season but it feels like we have been so poor for the vast majority of this season and even a lot of last season really . Even the whole PRS we can't spend to improve argument is flawed when we are below the likes of Brighton , Forest and Brentford and look poor in the vast majority of games.

Two poor teams , draw was fair but still feels like a defeat.

Yep we battered them for the first 30 minutes.

I am one of the biggest Eddie fans going but to me the only home league game this season where we have looked anywhere near our best was the Arsenal one , it's a far cry from the last few years where we were literally running all over teams and blowing them away.

It's a myth we played well against Brighton mind , we did for the first 30 minutes then soon as they scored we did nothing and had no idea how to break them down, same as the West Ham game the other night .

I think this could be a big problem , teams have feared coming here for the last two seasons and aside from a blip at home to Forest you only win here if you are a Man City, Liverpool or Arsenal. All of a sudden though we are now losing to the likes of Brighton and West Ham, teams won't be scared anymore. Even our home wins this season have been tight and by the odd goal , we have been hammering teams at home for the last two seasons and we aren't doing that anymore either .

Edit, wrong thread .

Using last season as a stick to beat Eddie with is desperate stuff mind , we had an unprecedented injury crisis and on top of that ended up with some of the maddest cup draws I have ever seen a club get in the same season, then you have that last minute joke penalty in Paris and the Tripper head loss that cost us against Chelsea, literally everything that could go wrong literally went wrong. Saying that I do think we look a worse team than we did two years ago and that's not a good sign ,he will be lucky to survive if we don't get Europe this season and although I am still fully behind him I don't think he could complain if he got sacked should that happen .

Feel like Palace are definitely not as bad as the league table shows , fully expect them to stay up. Would have been happy enough with a point had we beaten West Ham but feel like we need to win this game now even more so with Liverpool up next.

Total reversal from last season where we scored and conceded loads , struggling to make sense of it all.

Footballers desperately wanting to play in the champions league is always overstated I think. At the end of the day they will go where the money is, for example if Chelsea offered Isak a load of money and they didn't have champions league football I don't think that would stop him signing for them. Unfortunately we are never going to be able to pay the wages the big 5 clubs can or even Spurs for that matter . Obviously if we get champions league it would mean we could offer him more money to stay but it still might not be enough.
