I wouldn't be surprised if we fail to win another away game.

Forget any points in London, the one opportunity we blew was at Fulham as we sat back & couldn't cope with one of their subs.

Bugger!
Six goals in seven appearances for the 34yo.

I suspect he was licking his lips at the prospect of playing against our defence, when he woke up this morning.

That was next level s**t even the resident positive brigade will have trouble spinning that one. Somehow we've contrived to have an even worse squad than we had in the Championship. What a total f**k up from those running the club. Sadly, it's looking like Farke's days may well be numbered.

To be brutally honest, there is a distinct lack of quality, pace, anticipation & awareness in our squad.
That's down to p**s poor recruitment! :x
Jury is out of Farke....

Slow in possession, slownout of possession

Need to wake up
It got worse!

No anticipation or awareness of what goes on around them.

Too much frigging ball watching marking fresh air.

Our crossing was wasteful & woeful, today

Composure is another aspect of our game we lack.

Seriously, what on earth is he spouting on about...lack of chances created? Chances not taken....WHAT!?....
and if he talks to the players before a game like that I make no wonder they haven't a clue what to do on the pitch!

We have dropped to third in the XG table.
Still a Champions League position mind you 👍🏼

Do feel the 50M we spent on bench/rotational players could have gone toward a starting creative mid or striker.

Agree, Pascal back in for the Forest game.

I'm not sure Forest are, they're littered with quality. We'd kill for a Gibbs White to start with. They're quality team let down by an idiot owner so far but that's not likely to last

Worried about the Forest game now, really thought we'd catch Brighton a little cold today, considering they were only a point behind, and grab a draw. but ten minutes in the gulf in class was obvious. We do not pass and move like that

Thought we were a bit fortunate in some regards v Wham. Better than 3 teams. Possibly.
