This feels like Forest all over again. They are cutting us open at will.

The Spurs game has gone to the players heads. They think they had this game licked. It’s like when you play the last 3 holes of a golf really well and think next round is going to be a breeze.

Whilst I agree that he is a great option off the bench I’ve made this assumption by the way he talks about him in press conferences.

I don’t think he rates Barnes that much. Another one that Howe probably didn’t want.

That’s Wykiki officially withdrawing from lobbying to join the Nerd Stat Squad.

They seem to score a lot in their travels. I suspect they’ll take the lead first.

I’m in favour of scrapping it completely but it’s never going to happen. id be happy with AI semi-automated offsides and goal line technology. Let the onfield ref do the rest. Id consider the captain requesting 1 VAR challenge per half/game if they felt eg there was a stonewall penalty not given.

It's like she skipped media training. Absolutely terrifying that they believed she was the most eligible in the conservative party to be PM.

Due to your sunny disposition I suggest you put the book down and read something a bit more uplifting.

I think he felt the touch and went down. I bet he has a shit reputation with the referees. I think there have been at least two other similar incidents this season (Liverpool away and Milan away that I can recall)z i felt like he could have stayed on his feet but it’s probably still enough for a penalty. I can see why the ref thought it was soft in real-time. anyway, we deserved to lose so I’m at peace this morning. That team was a Bruce team. Hopefully Eddie goes back to 4 at the back now.

Howe nailed it v Spurs last week but got it all wrong tonight. on paper it’s a dog shit XI but we do have loads of starters out. Bar Schar, not one good performance tonight. Anderson tried. Gordon needs to start showing up away from home. well played Palace though.

If it was t longstaff we would have got that.

Nothing more than they’ve deserved. eddie needs to change this. Anderson is wasted there and Murphy isn’t a wing back. It’s needs a formation change.

They’ll have a recharge at half time so I expect the intensity levels to be back at the start of the second half. They’ve pressed well to be fair to them but we pretty much have a below average defence out today who can’t pass for shit.

This is Man Utd levels of conceding shots. Hopefully we have their sneaky luck.

Bruno has a gone for the Stimo hair colour again. I sense a yellow card today.

I’m not sure 5 at the back is working tonight.

If you’re offside, you’re offside. I have no issue with that. My problem is that these lines and timings of when the ball is kicked are a joke and completely inaccurate. Hopefully the semi-automated CL style system will sort out these problems.

He has done a fantastic job there with a lot of players that aren’t his. The players he has brought in are doing well (Vicario, Van De Ven, Maddison) I think the counter argument is that they are pretty one dimensional and/or don’t have a plan B. This was massively highlighted by Howe, who did a tactical job on him.

I’d bet my last pound someone on Ready to Groom has pointed the finger at our players with a quip like “Mag like behaviour”

Fallout was tremendous (and I’m not a gamer nerd)

Aye. Got loads of lads in their forties taking about their motors at work. I couldn’t give a toss to be honest. The way the mrs drives (and generally looks after it) there would be no point in getting anything nice anyway.

The handball rule needs fucking sorting out as well. They’ve tied themselves in knots with this years rules.
