What do you think a new manager gets out of this squad? £150 million and tell me one player who has been consistently good this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 We're probably the worst team in the league now. I can't see where we can win a game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Watford have Sarr and Deolofeu as wingers. We have El Ghazi, when he can be bothered, and Trezeguet who is just not good enough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The results against Bournemouth and Southampton are unforgivable Not just the results but the pathetic performances too - madness from the management to set the team up so open this season - at this level you will get ripped apart hence most games 20 plus shots - watford and West Ham made the managerial change and have prospered - for me villa Bournemouth and Norwich will drop now . we don’t have the passion or fight to get out of this - our star players know they will get snapped up by better teams and our manager is tactically inept at this level . let’s enjoy Wembley as it could be a long time before we get another visit there . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markavfc40 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) Liverpool have been dire all over the pitch, especially at the back, and I think playing like that we'd have beat them. Not great results for us this weekend but I'm a glass half full merchant and always felt Watford and West Ham were on paper at least too good to go down and Bournemouth and Brighton more likely to drop. With 11 games to go our fate is still in our own hands in terms of surviving and I'd have taken that at the start of the season.

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Seems the Athletico result gave them a sense of mortality and fear again, to be fair. They haven't seemed invincible since! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumstopdogs Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Trying to be positive we may have McGinn back towards the end of March and it should give us a real lift. Let's not give up just yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we were in a similar position at VP with Liverpool below par and we simply refused to attack. Watford keep their discipline and also kept having a go at 1-0 and had their just rewards. All season we've lost our heads when in decent positions v the top teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need pace in the final third to beat the better teams. Precisely. Everything we are not....pace, power and resilience. We are going down 100%. I have watched the latest games of Watford, West Ham and Norwich - they are all better than we are, unfortunately. Hate to say it but I could even see us finishing bottom. We are not good enough to be a PL team at this moment in time. Lets ensure that when we come back up we are in a much more stable place squad-wise so we will be better prepared for this league. We add a few experienced quality heads and will be more set to compete. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep this is true for me, we could easily have roughly 10 more points if we weren't so naive... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
