His part in the summer shitshow on the other hand… We desperately needed 2 attacking players and signed Osula who he doesn’t want to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An amazing goal line clearance, missed penalty, Gordan's chance and just generally some poor performances from some players. If Isak plays I'm pretty sure we win that. Everton were shit though. It’s not like we strangled them and stopped them from playing. They were just shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmericanLooneyToon Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 Theres no reason that a team with these players should have 8 goals in 7. I don't blame Eddie for that because I just don't see what else he can do. We are getting in good spots but we have no composure when it matters.

This - none of this bollocks we have lost 1 in 7 - we have had a piss easy start - in 7 games we’ve played well in 1, average in the other 6 These performances are not good enough - it’s really concerning Maybe getting the likes of Isak and Wilson will help The next 4 matches are huge - will determine what direction we are going in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was nothing wrong with our tactics or intent in that game. We looked back to our best at pressing away from home. It’s not Eddie’s fault we can’t finish Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 Thought the performance was decent, and that there where signs of us getting back to high performance levels. It wasn't an amazing display by any means, but it wasn't utter horseshit like some are claiming. Ultimately he can't legislate for poor finishing.

Was a total different type of game to what we'd play against them teams though. Everton let us have the ball and we struggled to break them down. Don't think it was a lack of intensity Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 19 minutes ago, ChrisMcQuillan said: I don't know enough about the intricacies and politics surrounding our transfer dealings. If Howe desperately wanted another senior striker, then he's been sold down the river. If he didn't, after the last season, he's just as culpable. I don't think another senior striker was feasible if we couldn't get rid of Wilson, but if we broaden your point out to a creative RW, I agree. I don't hate tonight's performance. We had just about everything except genuine goalscoring threat. Hopefully people can see now that just because we scored a lot of goals last season, it doesn't mean we were actually good going forwards, just rampaging, which is different.

Jordan Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 We’ve got no ideas against low blocks. He works on the attack and we offer nothing in it. 2 games this week alone we’ve offered nothing when the oppositions sat back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 Can't really fault him for anything today. Suppose you could argue based on what we saw that Almiron starting ahead of Murphy might have been a better call, Miggy looked sharp and tried to get on the ball I thought. We controlled that game for the majority of the 90 minutes and had the penalty gone on I'm fairly confident we close it out without much issue. Today was a consequence of what we did in the summer. Or didn't do, more accurately. Some of which is Eddie's responsibility. We have three really good front players in Gordon, Barnes and Isak. The drop off on quality after them is absolutely immense. A past it striker whose body is gone, a raw kid who they clearly don't think is ready to play and two wingers who offer work rate and almost nothing in the way of quality on the ball. There's not a team in the Premier League that Jacob Murphy could start for at RW and be a real asset to his side. Had we had a player who can actually contribute something in general play there I'd expect today we'd have found a goal. There's also the issue of our midfield. We still haven't added a player with any ability to unlock a team in the final third. Tonali looks like he'll be a player, but he seems to me more like an upgrade on Joelinton. Meanwhile, we've extended Joelinton go presumably play alongside him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
