[The Future’s Blue!]

I seen glimpses, and we didn’t lose.

Phew!

Thank you Captain Obvious;-)

Sometimes the straightforward answer is the correct answer.

I’m done now slagging everyone and getting upset. I have accepted it will take time to rebuild.

The last 12 years have been a blast. This season is awful and we must all fucking suffer together.

No one is allowed to leave -:)

Makes me laugh that everyone is hyping up Oscar Bobb like he’s some world beater we’re missing.

Let’s be honest, he’s still young and hasn’t done much to warrant that regard.

Him, Savinho, Doku etc all far below the standard of player we’re used to seeing on the wings (Mahrez, Sterling, Sane etc).

Need to break the bank in Jan.

I never said Oscar Bobb was a "world beater", He's a hell of alot better than what we do have in wide areas, He has end product which can't be said for Grealish, Doku and Savinho.

I agree Sane, Sterling and Mahrez are all on a whole new level that what we currently have as Doku and Savinho in particular are nowhere near the levels required to complete for silverware.

We ain't breaking the bank for any winger in January in my opinion, I'd love us to sign two new wingers but we all know that won't happen as they'll give Doku and Savinho time...Time that's going to cost us in the long run.

As I said I'm looking forward to having Bobb back at least I know he'll produce something when he gets into the final third, Instead of pissing about looking at our current wingers like headless chickens.

At the game.

We should have been 3 up Gvardiol post Bernardo with a pathetic left foot shot on a certain goal. Add the Haaland miss it's should have been a comfortable day.

Absolutely nowhere near as bad as many make out. Confidence very low, we didn't lose have to take it on the chin.

As so often, utterly pathetic finishing costs us.

And again, their first attempt on target goes in. It’s almost every game, even when we were winning we’d need about 25 shots for 2 or 3 goals. Now we’re not even getting those.

If we get any serious point deduction then we cold well be relegated. That was as bad an Everton team I've ever seen, and we couldn't beat them. Really hard to see where the next win is coming from. All it takes is this run to continue for the next few games and then our fixtures become awful looking again end of January into February. Even a point deduction of 15/20 could be enough to send us down.

The championship monsters will devour these jokers

shite, and again our own fault

Race to 40 points

No guarantees

Very frustrating one, well on top, miss chances for a second then Everton score and we don’t get going again for the rest of the half. Then started like a train second half and get the penalty (why no second yellow it was as clear a yellow as could be). Once the penalty was saved we looked shot.

No idea why Erling took so long over the penalty. Whenever that happens the chances of scoring seem to drop.

Biggest concern for me is how we defend. Doucoure had zero pressure crossing for the goal. Lewis was marking no one and was never got near him and we looked very vulnerable from corners. We at least caused them problems initially from set pieces but the longer the match went on the worse our set pieces got.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

on a positive note, one match nearer the return of Rodri

 

[sarcastico]

Wasnt a good performance but the game was there to win.

Any other season, Haaland puts the pen away and we don't think about this game ever again. Any other season City see out that 1 nil on Utd.
