He’s one of the main reasons we are losing by the odd goal instead of worse. Reminds me of a centre defensive midfielder that was probably our best player the last time we went down.
Hopefully we can keep hold of him.
Good post. I think it’s unfair to blame Smith but I think you have to question whether he’s the right man for such a big job. I like Smith and always grateful for what he has done. But we don’t seem to be seeing progression. That’s when change is needed.
I actually think he’d do alright in the championship. If Adomah can thrive in that league I’m sure Trez can.
edit: which midtable championship team has ever paid 9 million on a winger?
Hate to say it but can’t see anything but a defeat. They are much better than us and are one of the top teams in the league. Had they not had so many games this season they’d be even higher up I reckon.
I knew you were a racist!!
edit. On a serious note I’ve tried to give him the benefit of the doubt after his goals against big teams. But let’s face it. He is way out of his debt in this league!
I was really bitter about the palace game but I think the Sheffield United game sort of cancels that out.
The spurs one could come back to us haunt us though.
Yeah all this ‘his heads gone’ and ‘he’s got his move’ stuff is bollocks in my opinion. He is doing his best and is still our best player. He just isn’t this world beater that some fans made him out to be. He can’t do it all by himself. He is still crucial to us having any chance of staying up though.
Tbf I don’t think we were that bad that game. We just didn’t take our chances and had a comical moment of defending as always. Savage was blaming Mings. I blame Hause. If Mings has gone over to the left then why does Hause have to follow? Was an embarrassing goal to concede.
BUT we’re still in it! That’s what counts.
At least we didn’t lose. I have to ask. If Jack is an 80 million pound player, What is Saint maximin worth? Swap him with Jack and we win that game in my opinion. Our star needs to do more.
At least Luiz is showing his potential.
It’s easy to forget that every team around is us as shit as us. It will come down to who’s the least shittest over the next 8 games and right now it’s back in our hands. Coming on VT after match day makes me feel like relegations already been confirmed.
