Just been on twitter and I see all the fickle arseholes are out in force again. Never been seen the past 6 weeks, then 1 loss and everything is back to being shite again. Idiots.

Honestly mate. Coming off there was a great decision for me. 
 

I mean, I’m still a miserable cunt  But I’m not as bad. Every account became like those engagement, rage bait type personalities or just Talksport’esque provocative shite. 
 

At least on here there is some fair and balanced stuff. Sometimes. Maybe.

@bobbydazzla  I had a powerful sense of dread about this one. 

[Lush Vlad]

Revelling in the sea of misery and negativity, no doubt. 

[Heron]

Better team won on the day. Simple as that.

 

Iraola had our number tactically.

His players executed it perfectly.

Referee allowed them to bully us.

We allowed them to bully us.

All but 2 or 3 did anywhere enough to compete.

 

Onto the next game 

[TRon]

What about Kluivert's hatrick btw? It was against us, but those were quality finishes.

Wasted little time in shooting and placed the ball perfectly each time. He had an amazing game and generally does against us.

I thought the second was saveable. His other two were top class. 

[Geogaddi]

Still can't believe people losing their head over one result  wake up lads it was a one off.

Just have to accept we were bettered by our opposition today and move on.

[JUICE690]

Personally not losing my head. But I think it's the matter of the defeat. 4 goals at home is rank.

Appreciate your concern but also think like...we have had numerous clean sheets recently. Each opposition poses a different threat and certain teams are better suited against certain opposition. That's why top teams need more than one plan of action.

Bournemouth reminded me a lot of the team we were in 22/23 season.

 

Our defence was awful today - sloppy, slow and couldn’t pass through the press. Midfield then drop deep leaving the forwards isolated.

 

Nothing available from the bench to change things up - really need Barnes and a fit Wilson back. 

[Gallowgate Toon]

I don't think today was fatigue, more likely that we just tried to over-manage the game and/or got complacent. It was like there was no urgency or sense of danger in anything we did. On the rare occasions the pitch opened up, it all felt like it was being done at .50 pace. Everything just felt seconds slower, both attacking and defending.

 

I suspect we were wary of their transitions and wanted to manage the pace of the game, especially with their 'weakened' bench, but it became too safe & too predictable. It then was a case of pressing for us to make mistakes - we made plenty.

 

Weirdly, it was all so crap that I don't feel too bad - feels more like you can put it down to a bad day for all and move on.

[JLC]

Can't complain. Well played Bournemouth. They were the better side from the off. We weren't at the races; maybe Sandro aside, the whole team had an off day.

 

We've been on an astonishing run, which has provided high after high after high.

 

We'll bounce back from a disappointing day - every team has them.

 

We have a coach who will analyse the shit out of this game and I totally believe in him and his staff to reflect and react.

Agreed on the first sentence.

 

Actually felt our front 3 were terrible rather than isolated and tactically we didn't supply them with enough too which further compounded the issue. We looked very stretched today and un-composed.

I'm not. Just noticed his face on the replay. It was a, 'that was my man' face (probably).

Again, not concerned . I'm just pointing out folk will go over the top becuase of the score line and the fact. we were at home.
