We're still punching massively above our weight, and our fans need to stop reacting like fickle and entitled arseholes. Just my opinion. Spot on nee wonder St Jame’s is silent unless we score, worse fans in the top flight by a country mile at the min bar probably a hardcore of 2k away fans. No perspective writing players off who’ve played their hearts out this season it’s fucking embarrassing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you mind explaining how insisting a player sticks to his contract would demotivate the squad? He wanted to leave for money and job security, but we don’t have depth. I’d rather protect our interests than his. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don’t take them 3 points then Every 1 of our players gave 100 percent to try and win those games, as they did today. They tried to win, they didn't get beat, that's a win for me every game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley17 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 It’s a perfect storm really. Teams working us out, probably a bit of fatigue, one eye on the cup final…I guess you could add Bruno’s absence to that but he was in the team for some of this lacklustre run. The thing is we haven’t been an irresistible attacking force in many games, we are usually good front runners where if we get ahead and teams keep attacking (Villa, Brentford) then we’ll pick them off. Obviously it’s all built on a solid defence and keeper. Teams seem to have realised our left channel is a bit slow and teams can turn us around by playing over the top into that area. Burn is a tremendous defender but during this time without Bruno we need all the outlets we can get and he’s looked every bit a centre half playing full back. It’s something else that contributes to us being quite easy to stop. It’s easy with hindsight but I think we’ve had a bad January window. We are short in central midfield and up front although I do understand why Shelvey and Wood left, neither have really been replaced. Gordon looks decent and I think we needed a new wide option regardless but with Wilson’s injury record it’s a huge risk to only have him and Isak. It was evident tonight how much better Wilson’s all round game is than Isak’s, his hold up play in particular was missed tonight. Isak is obviously very talented though but needs time to adapt fully. We’ll see how bad the injuries are from tonight but I had been very confident of beating Liverpool to now not being sure at all. They won’t sit back which should suit us but we are going to have more than one eye on the final I’m sure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very impressed with all involved. However, today’s performance was shit. I’m not saying it invalidates everything, but today’s performance was undoubtedly not a good performance. It’s brain-rot to disagree. We passed the ball to the other side over and over again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 It was shit, but it was shit because the players are knackered, not because they're bad or not putting the work in. I find it hard to criticise us too much in that context. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the lack of options available to Howe to freshen things up and rotate is starting to take its toll. We're 1 or 2 windows away from having a very good XI. A few more windows after that maybe until we have a very good squad. Edited February 11, 2023 by MrRaspberryJam Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
