There’s a clear lack of intensity in our game compared to last season. We don’t press nearly as high, we don’t bomb forwards nearly as quickly and we get caught on the ball way too much. Something feels off. 😟

 

Confidence thing imo

Might be. But our starting positions are so low compared to last year and it’s not doing us any good. We don’t have anyone apart from Gordon who can transport the ball up the pitch with pace.

It's the type of start you would expect coming off a few defeats, an international break and an eleven that have never played together before.

 

Need to see out the first half an hour.

Devils advocate: all giving 50% to stay fit for the first Champion's League game.

 

Don't think it would be 0-0 still if our players only played with 50% effort :lol:

At least the gammons slamming the away support after the game last week will be happy. 

 

Home support aren't helping our nervousness lol. Been better the last couple or minutes having said that. 

 

Strange comment.

What the fuck happened to our press? The only match we did it in this season we won 5-1. Since then we’ve sat back, invited pressure, and let the other teams dictate the play in every other match - and lost them all. 
 

Is Howe trying to be too clever tactically instead of letting us bring all the pressure we did last season?
