Have the wheels come off again?
We were in control but Brentford have had 7 or 8 minutes and got two goals in that time. They haven’t battered us by any means.

No guts no fight and bielsa has no more f**king ideas. We are in deep deep s**t. It would take millions in January to keep us up and radzianni ain't going to spend I fear.

We look completely clueless and it's not helping that the ref is not in control. We could play until Wednesday and still not look like scoring. Hope I'm wrong.

I was just thinking....we always seem to struggle when we have enforced substitutions

Man what can you say about this performance. We are clueless have no guts no fight and are piss poor all other the park particularly in midfield. We are getting stem rolled by brentford. This was a 3 pointer all day long We have nothing going for us We are as bad as Newcastle and Norwich and I bet you those teams finish above us. For goodness sake it doesn't take a genius to work out we're in serious trouble and that it would take millions to sort out. FFS

As usual one step forward, two steps back. Unlucky my arse. You need to score goals to win football matches, hoping to win 1-0 every week won't cut it. Wake up call to the delusional ones talking about Europe. We are in a scrap.

Beautiful pass from Raphinha goes begging as James skies the cross

Nah ! Plenty of fight. Quality - probably not. It is evident this squad is very thin. The injuries today have clearly cost us. No balance- Raphinia is the only player we have on the pitch with a real creative spark. Far to many players who can only play sideways and backwards. All very slow and predictable.

Careful you'll be called too negative and unsupportive

Pass it out wide, hoof it in the box with a poor cross and repeat...

We look every bit like a Championship side and if we can't beat Brentford at home, we may as well give up now. The side looks clueless along with the manager at the moment. We can bemoan how unlucky we've been, the ref, injuries and the 'if only's', but at the end of the day, it's a results game. At least Tyler scored just to counter the 'moaning' element :)

At least the fourth or fifth time we’ve been flagged offside within ten yards of the center line
