Thats what pisses me off. We like all other teams will lose games, its a competitive league. But the manner that we have done it and not actually learned from it and with todays all switched off everywhere on the pitch playstyle. It does make at least me boil.

We all support the same team give people a break. Bro ... I really was not having a go at anyone. Just sharing my own perspective on things. Just like they are. Having a go would be telling them to shut up or F off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cannot use the excuse that Brighton are a good side, we weren't at the races. Brighton didn't even play that well - they beat us playing in 2nd gear.

TheBrownBottle Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Just now, Jaqen said: We are a side that is ultimately lacking in quality and relies on being very well drilled and intensity opponents can't cope with. As soon as there's even a small drop off our weaknesses are exposed. The other top sides can afford to have games where they're maybe playing at 60/70% and get bailed out by their quality in attack. Fortunately we have a good run after the international break and a chance to build up some momentum. There's so much to learn from what went wrong in the last three games and I'm confident Eddie will be able to address it. 100%. Look at our starting XI - a lot of that side need coached and drilled into being top performers. Isak, Bruno, Trippier and Tonali are the only ones who a top six side would contemplate buying for their first XI. We’re still early into a rebuild. Patience is necessary.

Same, of course you lose games but you could even see in the villa game the midfield had a problem imo. Villa were just really really bad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season is going to be the most difficult because of what we achieved last season and what people now expect us to do this season. I would not want to be Eddie Howe at all this year.

Conjo Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 First time in forever I actually welcome the international break if only to give Joelinton time to properly recover from something that is clearly affecting his performances this season and to hopefully see Willock available on the bench at least. Pope should not be allowed to touch the ball with his hands for the next two weeks so he is a bit more comfortable with the ball at his feet going forward. I also hope we can see improvement in: - how our three midfielders moves both with and without the ball - how we collectively press as a team rather than one and one player at a time - how we play the ball out of defence so we don't get caught in the press and forces us to hoof the ball up towards an isolated striker - how we make Tripper more available to contribute offensively (and maybe see some of Livramento & Hall) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the Liverpool one that’s still fucking bugging me At the same time, not sure how our "intensity is our identity" mantra is going to work against the best teams if they can pass around our press so easily. The balance of the midfield doesn't look right, we just couldn't get close to either side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 For me - Bruno and Big Jo look off the pace. Loss of form maybe? Was just so dis-jointed and plodding today and that's what's surprising, because it's not us. Probs the worst defeat since Villa away (3-0) and it may even top that as being one of the worst since Eddie took over. However, the time is not to panic - Eddie needs to earn his money a bit over the next couple of weeks - back to the drawing board and take another look at things. Trust the process. As I said through the previous week, we were probably never gonna challenge for top 4 this coming season. A run at the CL and the cups should be priority, IMO. We've come so far in two years - people need to remember that a bit and temper their expectations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
