Awaymag Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Why do we never get a new manager bounce? Anyway, Brentford are in freefall it seems Edited February 5, 2022 by Awaymag Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 A morale boosting victory is far from ideal, but we'll be in high spirits ourselves. We'll be much trickier opposition under the lights at SJP, than a Brentford side on the back of four straight defeats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Think it's better they get a convincing win tbh It's rare teams just keep blowing sides out the water unless they're Man City or Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Just watched the goals and the keeper is to blame for 2 and horrible defending to give them 2 free headers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorchyTBB Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) 0-2. Everton will be too strong in attack for us. We're are going down, too many key positions still need a serious upgrade to stay up (striker, centre midfield and centre back) and now it's too late. Ashley + Bruced, no new manager bounce and an average transfer window. Championship winners next year, no doubt, but a year wasted. Just how I see it and I hope I am completely wrong.

Hanshithispantz Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) I think we could have done better in January but do some people not realise that several teams around us also have "too many key positions still need a serious upgrade"? We're in a bad situation but I cannot wrap my head around the genuine doom looking at the table now.

Wolfcastle Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 The change of manager to anybody awoken something awful in me about this. Probably make do with a point now and even then its going to be tense torture. To think a year ago all the interest I had was seeing how low our possession stats would be. Halcion days.

The Prophet Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 While we don't win enough, we are generally quite tough to beat at home. Only City, Chelsea, Spurs and West Ham have done so and three of those were when we were hemorrhaging goals under Stevie B. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think there’s nowhere near enough goals in the team to take advantage of the recent quality additions elsewhere on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do too like, if we'd signed Lingard and a forward/winger I'd be massively confident in us staying up. Like it's touch and go at the minute but there's some absolute around us.

Out of curiosity, which team around us has more goals in them than us? I wouldn't swap our attacking players for Watfords, Norwichs or Burnleys.

The Prophet Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Surely the additions will help us score more goals though? Good quality full backs will provide consistent delivery into the box, having a ball playing centre back and a quality pivot will help move the ball from back to front more effectively, as well as allowing the lads in the middle a bit more freedom. They'll also aid Howe in pushing the whole team further up the pitch. Having another attacker would have been nice, but the team needs to be rebalanced so we consistently create more clear cut chances, rather than relying on ASM to pluck something out of thin air.
