Lewis had a canny game Imo

 

You'd think this game and his recent performance for NI (which I didn't see, but know only from the positive reviews), will get him more minutes. Several posters talking prematch about how this game could crush his delicate psyche.

Pre-takeover i had kind of numbed to this shit and wasn't that fussed when we were crap. Now I've been excitedly waiting for each match and shitting myself the entire time, and we just can't even get a win. Incredibly frustrating. :)

 

Joelinton man of the match for me, Never stopped.

I thought Lewis was superb tonight, him and Joelinton our two best players (Jo definitely motm).

 

If Ritchie gets back in it'll be a disgrace. If the back 4 that started tonight continues to play I do think we could sneak a result in December.

 

Any other team bar Norwich and we probably lose tonight. We'd have wiped the floor with them if it wasn't for Clark.

 

As long as we begin January with the gap no bigger than 6 points we have a chance. Whether that happens or not I'm not convinced.

 

Feel for Howe, missing Brentford and then Clark tonight, he's not had much luck; that said, 90% of fans were saying pre match Fede should've started.

I have to disagree slightly, I think the majority of our players are absolutely awful and belong nowhere near the premier league.

 

After two years of basically not watching I'm starting to see that too. Players who I thought were alright aren't; players who I thought were class are probably very average. But I still think we're better then 20th.

Was an gk error that cost us not sitting back.

Our inability to get out our own half led to them being able to camp in our half and create that chance.

 

You have to threaten the opposition on some level, or they just throw everyone at you. It's imperative to push some of their players into their own half by at least looking like you want to attack occasionally.

Gutted after that. Norwich didn’t deserve anything. We looked more likely to score at 1-0 then just got a bit of luck. 
 

Lewis has to keep his place now. It’ll be a big test to see what Howe’s about whether he goes for a more solid, athletic defender or whether he reverts to Richie as he’s been his player for so long.

 

We really needed to win that. If we beat Burnley and get 4 points this week we’re still alive but fail to win and we might as well start planning for next season. 
 

How Clark has been ahead of Fernandez for so long is a complete mystery to me.

I thought there was loads to be encouraged about there. Overall we defended well as a unit, Fed and the full backs deserve praise. I thought Joelinton worked his socks off for the cause, while Shelvey was decent. 

 

We win that with eleven, but what can you do.

Still only 6 points off as it stands, people need to stop losing their shit.

 

You see our fixtures between now and the end of the year? Let's see what the gap is in January, we've played 14 teams and beat none of them. Losing your shit would have been saying these things after 7 games, right now its realism.

Since Howe came in we have had some fucking disgusting individual errors like.

 

Minging by Clark, fucker should be sent to the North Pole in his underpants.

 

What he's done is deploy an actual system, tactics and it's exposed the weakest points in our squad. The fuckwittery of the previous regime front and center as soon as someone with acumen, merit and football IQ is given control.

Idiots who booed at FT should fuck off and not come back.


 

Couldn’t believe hearing the booing at the end. Fucking morons.

Of course fucking of course Pukki scores an absolute fucking worldie against us. Nine times out of ten that shot ends up in level 7 from the angle he's approaching it. 

Have an unreasonable dislike for Pukki and had a feeling he'd score

It's hard but we've shown something tonight. 1-1 with 82 minutes with 10 mins is not something we should be ashamed of. It will be individual errors after all that which cost us the 3pts but as a team we showed something. 

 

Unfortunately though, those individual errors (usually 3 or 4 a game) are happening every single game. Doesn't matter who comes in the errors keep churning out.

Bloke has barely stood on a football pitch all season, it’s unsurprising he’s incredibly rusty.


Shite excuse. So had Fernandez, but he had a class game.

Disgraceful to boo the remaining team did well all things considered, my anger is just its not good enough to do rearguard draws against norwich, yes its an individual error but it's too late to be suffering this kind of stupid set back

We weren't even that deep after the goal though. 

Schär should have had a free kick when their player stepped on him instead of a throw in to them just before the goal as well.
