your missing the point with him ,he’s done nothing in this game or for a while , do I want him in the team YES 100% but he needs to still track a man ffs , basic football.

Sure you’ve quoted the right post?

[Andy]

Really frustrating how slow and listless we've been on the ball against an off form, rattled Leicester like. Caused them absolutely no worries at all and allowed them to play the game at their leisure.  

 

Easy to twist about the ref and VAR but we've done nowt to help ourselves.

Willock loses every 50-50.

 

He is so physically weak and is just soft . It's unbelievable.

[toontownman]

2-0 down and seemingly still the only supporters in stadium.

[Thomson Mouse]

It’s like most on here were expecting us to destroy them.

 

absolute joke. 

[Smal]

Manquillo at centre back is... interesting

We gift so many easy goals, it's a recipe for relegation. I don't know if Howe is the right man to address that issue either.

He was never the right man - it was more the fact that he wanted the job and could talk the talk.

Haven't watched in a while but don't think NUFC are quite as bad as described here. 

 

Relegation as a certainty seems a bit much too, less than half way through the season with a transfer window left.

 

Definitely lacking incision in the final third and CM is not very strong. Not as bad as I thought it would be, had some good spells of possession/pressure (without great chances).

The knee jerk bullshit on here is disgraceful. Fuck off 

Knee jerk after watching 2 and a half years of utter shite football. Ok.

Yeah it’s worrying and it was my chief concern when we hired him. He can’t possibly think this midfield is good 

Do we even have a good midfield to play? I think this is just a reminder how important january is.

[Menace]

This is up there with some of the worst shite dished up this season.

[Guest neesy111]

Only just started watching but again looks like there is no midfield.

Think it's understandable after today mind, Howes had time with the team now and coming off a win we still look terrible.

I thought we could beat them but we haven't  showed enough intensity.

Wasn't it more knee jerk to think we were going to stay up just on the basis of scraping past Burnley to win a single league game (first of the season in December lol)?

[GWN]

See I’m all for going for the win however if you are compact , tight and hardworking these would never have gotten through .

 

We are in the shit, every point counts and today we have thrown it easily away

I love that tbh, people do this all the way until we actually go down. I remember with McClaren people were laughing at people pointing out we would likely go down 

Stop jerking that knee, punk.

Not at all but these haven’t kept a clean sheet in 21 games and have a centre midfielder playing centre back and we have been absolutely shit.

It’s all good though. Don’t be knee jerk, we are only second bottom, despite every team around us losing. Don’t be reactionary!!!!!

 

Exactly what has changed our position from last week? We're still only 3 points away from safety. You're the definition of reactionary.

This. None of them bar Maximan look like they want the ball, and he's just trying to score a goal single-handedly.

What are you talking about? We are winning this 2-3!

 

1% probability be damned.

[Yorkie]

08-09: Butt/Smith/Nolan/Guthrie

 

15-16: (Gini), Anita, Colback, Shelvey, Saivet, a very much past-his-best Tiote

 

21-22: Shelvey, Willock, Hayden, Hendrick

 

 

It's no coincidence like. CM is so fucking vital and our options have been a bucket of shit every time we've gone down, including hypothetically this time.

Gutted tbh. Leicester were there for the taking, 10 minutes in I thought we'd be able to do this. We allowed them to get comfortable in the game and settle their nerves. Piss poor. 

 

We're horrendous like, but the fact we got completely fucked over (again) for their first ruined us.  Played a big part in settling their nerves and making us drop our heads.
