Bournemouth (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

We started the season quite strongly and then came up against a not too bad Brentford side who gave us a game. Since then it's been a bit laborious with a lack of quality. Injuries have obviously not helped but we clearly don't look right. I think it may be a case of trying to hang on in there until some players and form return.
 
It's only one game we lost, and we are panicking here.
The day is coming when we lose the league title and win nothing Get a grip, some people on here can not take losing and point fingers and blame Pep,

Yes Injuries, Yes players are not fully fit, But you don't lose titles on a day like this you lose titles because you can not ask any more from this squad of players that have won it 4 times on the bounce and add Champions League and fa cups and you realize how lucky we have been in 5 seasons,

Nobody likes losing, but it is football and today was not our day
 
i mean, its the same mini crisis every season right around this time, i somehow doubt that we will be able to turn it around with away games vs brighton and liverpool coming soon but stranger things have happened

We were worse than this by February of the treble winning season. So much football still to play
 
We have been in managed decline since late ;last Season. The Club is awash with money but whether its complacency, Pep or legal uncertainty we hung on sentimentally to a core of ageing players. Like any business when you are at the top you need to ruthlessly refresh. We have failed to do that and now reaping the results.
 
Annoying but let’s face it, it’s been coming. Glad we get a chance to reflect and recharge following Arsenal dropping a crazy amount of points and Dippers dropping points last week. If Dippers win today (which I expect) two points off the top in November with the double header against them still to play and Arsenal wallowing 5 points behind and looking equally as average.. I’d have taken at the start of the season.. even with a fully fit squad.

However, we need to get players back and start to turn the corner with our performance levels. Phil needs to pull his finger out.. he’s been dreadful so far.

*Edit. For some reason I thought Dippers were the 17:30 kick off. Turned on the Tv to Wolves, Palace. Oh well that ship has sailed :(

Amidst all the noise after our defeat what I take away is the Rico should only play right back in an emergency. He is so much more valuable as an advanced midfielder!!
