toontownman Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Looking forward to saving on my Dazn subscription. That said I've said that 3 years in a row. 3rd times the charm. It's not impossible and other teams are absolutely in the shit too, but every other team looks better than we do in games. New signings and a winning run of a few games and we can stay up. However we can't win 50/50's or a string more than 2 passes together contest at the minute. The damage has been done but it will be much worse after the next run of games.

GWN Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Still at the consistent 9 , we need to learn how to shithouse a point and not get too lofty . Quick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I want to believe things will come together and Howe will get it right, but today was just fucking embarrassing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Championship written all over us. Diabolical team. 11 new players in January our only option! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I'm still somewhat upbeat to be honest, today was bad, but we've shown enough signs over the last 5 games we should be able to get out of it, only issue is our horrendous run of games until the new year.

toontownman Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 This club potentially has the world at its feet but we always have our own shit on our shoe. Howe asked players to step up and show they deserve to stay with January coming up. It's clear very few of these players will bet on themselves. It is a massive problem. We can't replace as many as we clearly need to. Unless we can buy a spine of leadership that can gel almost instantly it will be near impossible. If we can add 3/4 quality leadership figures to the starting lineup it might inspire a few. You won't get those types of players in January very easily and in our predicament. A CB, CM, attacker and fullback are very bare minimum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWN Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Remember what we’ve said for a few seasons now , we need to beat the fuckers around us , not the the top 6 . ? These 4 games we write off 9.5/10 so let’s chill out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What signs really? We are shipping goals for fun. Making stupid mistakes every f game. 3 points against Burnley, but wow that has to be the minimum. We could have lost to Norwich but Dubravka saved us. Should have won against Brentford, but 3 goals at home? Every team is running past our midfield. We have the most stupid defenders in the league. Making mistakes and gifting goals. Its every game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awaymag Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 (edited) top 12 sides - write them off and anything else is a bonus. From now to end of the season the battle is a mini league of 6-8 clubs. Forget everything else. its what we do against the teams in the mini league. Next 3 games for us are wipes out - keep the score down and try to build on some performances. Edited December 12, 2021 by Awaymag Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Looks like 3 from the bottom 4 now like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Cant see a single point from this lot. Watford (h) on the 15th, but we will be well adrift by then God, I fucking hate Bruce with our dreadful start to the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintdempsey Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I can actually see us getting something from Man Utd, Everton and Southampton tbh. Wouldn’t be surprised to get 4-6 pts. Thinking about it I wouldn’t be surprised if we lost all three either though. ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other 3 we have a decent chance of getting something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samptime29 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 No points from Liverpool or City. Then we have Man Utd at home over Xmas, Everton, Southampton away. We need minimum of 5 points, ideally 7 points from those 3 games. Then it's 17 games remaining and we have time to make signings before Watford at home in mid Jan. We are in big trouble but 3 points behind isn't a total disaster. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 No matter how bad we are or how good they are, I always fancy us at home against Man United, especially if it's a night time game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLvOR Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I'm quite pessimistic today. That loss hit me hard, I really thought we had a brilliant opportunity to get something against a nervous, injury struck side. Instead, we got demolished and it's once again down to individual errors. But there always seems to be a fuck up every game. Clark against Norwich, Lascelles/Shelvey/Manq today, Darlow every time he played. It's a perfect storm for relegation, and I just can't see January saving us at the moment.

Menace Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 It's incredible how much has gone against us, and even with 1 win and it being December, it's not completely out of sight yet. The bottom 4 in the prem is absolutely horrific this year mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bonk Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Us Watford Norwich Burnley Southampton Leeds Relegation league and I highly doubt Leeds are anywhere near as bad as us. Watford play decent stuff and are capable of an upset, same with Leeds. I've not seen that type of character in our squad at all this season. Our only saving grace is we can outspend each of these teams to finish above them, but I'm not convinced that's the best long term move for this club. I suppose that leaves the loan market, splash on wages and see where the fuck that leaves us come May. Also, I absolutely think Howe is the manager that can keep us up, he did it with Bournemouth and didn't have the resources (money available) we do currently.

midds Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Need to go big on 5 or 6 players in Jan or we're fucked. Thought we have a chance of a point today but got blown out if the water. Squad is horrendous, it's not Howe's fault but it is his problem and he solves it by removing half of the team and replacing it. He then needs to cross his fingers they all stay fit and we limp to about 34 points. It's a tall order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job it appears we have all of our ducks in a row ahead of the January window opening then… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
