  1. Data, statistics, percentages etc etc. Your best penalty taker hits his perfect penalty but the keeper gets lucky (or does he ?) and saves it. If he had gone second or fourth would he have scored ? Who knows? Penalty shoot outs are a lottery anything can happen.
  2. Great performance all round and fantastic winning goal. This is by far the best I have seen the team play this season over a full game. Only matched by the fantastic away support who sang throughout the game with a very varied ( and often humorous) song book. Take a bow all involved.

    Clément Lenglet

    From what I saw (they only showed it twice) Martinez should have taken control and collected the ball .

    Clément Lenglet

    Still waiting to see it. How can we tell if he called or not ? Looking forward to making a decision if motd ever show the game.

    Clément Lenglet

    Waiting for MOTD so haven’t seen it yet, but some on the match thread were brave enough to call EMI out for the error others seem unable to believe this and blame Lenglet totally. Looking forward to seeing it.
  6. Seriously? “ dreams of winning the title” who the f**k realistically thought that ? Thankfully to allay your fears of how far we can drop I think relegation is out of the question at least for this season. Before the season started an away win at Fulham would have been a reasonable assumption given our ambitions, currently we are 5th with 46 points they are 12th with 29 accepting we have some important injury problems and despite the fact we lost to a rejuvenated Man Utd last match I still think it’s acceptable to think we could/ should win this. Lets hope the players have more belief than some of their “supporters” on here.
  7. Why ? We played well today against a far better team than Fulham . There is every chance we could win.
  8. Plenty of time to find a new club to follow (note didn’t say support)
  9. Sorry your comment is cack (never typed that word before) we lost we didn’t play badly. Clearly doubting the manager, care to suggest a replacement?
  10. Imagine the shit on here if we had tried to buy him
  11. Even if they aren’t fully fit and risk further time out ?
  12. Not everyone but if it helps. Just looked at our central defenders when we were dropping out of the premier league and in the championship, but you probably weren’t watching then when we were shit
  13. Not shifty you just don’t like them, fair enough but they play for the team you profess to support so why not get behind them and support your team rather than seeming to enjoy slagging certain players off regardless.
  14. Yes numerous times and you are welcome to your opinion
  15. That’s the club’s decision to employ them and pay them didn’t see anything other than them giving their best on the night not much more than they can do than that. Plus the fact they were royally screwed over by our equally expensive midfield who were crap.
  16. Read it perfectly, they are first choice players the others are back ups (even Cash as Konsa is the preferred full back for many) so they will obviously perform at a higher level hopefully in the future more of our fan base will learn to recognise that back up players aren’t as good as the first choice and therefore will not reach the same levels but still need to be supported.Tonight the midfield regulars cost us that game not the back up defenders.
  17. Back four will obviously suffer because the midfield was so shit, but hey ho lets ignore the fact that our regular heroes were absolutely shit and blame it on the back ups.
  18. Not sure who’s had the worst first half, the players or the fans ? Who is supposed to get who going ? In my opinion both have been utter crap.
  19. Fans are flat because they think the defence is shit, when really (hopefully) they should be getting behind then because they are best we can field tonight and deserve to be fully backed. They are also all international players.

    Ezri Konsa

    “Lack of defensive depth” we probably have more depth at centre back than any other position in the squad and better than most other squads in the league.. Yes the players get weaker as you move down the 5 but Carlos and Lenglet still isn’t a disastrous option.
  21. Why bring Ramsey back he’s not even a regular in a shit Burnley team. Also Archer is hardly justifying a place at an even worse team than Burnley.
