Minimum? Would you be targeting more?

Targeting no less. Didn't think I'd need to explain that one. 

[PompeyVillan]

That felt really harsh.

We're 3 points off 11th place, and we have oodles of time to get things going. 

[useless]

I'm deflated and sad, have lost all hope.

[AXD]

It is worrying we can’t hold on to a result and DS doesn’t seem to know when to sub. Also a striker will be needed in january if Wesley doesn’t improve 

positive: we have never been outplayed. In our relegation season, there were many games where we never were in the game. So hopefully (maybe naive) our players adapt to the PL in the next games so we can see out a result.

we need to pick up at least 4 points next 2 games

[Bizzzle]

Wes and Mings were shite today. I expected a draw if I'm honest but still very disappointed. Oh well the championship is better anyway 

[terrytini]

Pretty much the same as every game so far.

Around an hour - in total - Of very good football. Around half an hour of poor football.

Given we were 10 th in the Championship 6 months ago I’m happy with the hour, and unsurprised at the half hour.

Dont share the worries as regards Points...( I’ll take One Point per game -  8 points from 8 games if we beat Narch) still less those who have already given up() because the good football we play will bring wins as long as we improve the poor half hour.

Believe it or not, it’s still very very early days.....

Just a joke. I didn’t think I needed to explain that either. 

[Darth Villa]

Elation, frustration, desolation - pretty much sums us up.  It is too early to be despondent as we will improve and we are competitive albeit naïve too when it comes to seeing games out but why oh why do we seem to be playing against VAR every single game...and WTF does an opposition player have to do to get booked, punch SJM in the head?

In which case, have a bit of word with yourself. It's only football, and it wasn't actually that bad. 

[Humanoid]

Good 1st half, lost too much momentum in the 2nd.

Shame about Targett going off injured as he was having a good game. 

I think patience is wearing too thin with Wesley now.  The guy cant even hold up the ball.  At least young Davis can do that

[Rugeley Villa]

It weren’t that we played badly. We were also playing a decent team , BUT we do not do enough with the ball, and have no killer instinct at all. I do believe we are a hard team to beat though, but too many draws against mid table-bottom half clubs will cost us. We are desperate for a striker. 

[Brumstopdogs]

Important to keep backing the team. We're not getting the results but they will come eventually.

[MaVilla]

just watched the goals.

oh my lord Taylor for their first goal.

second goal, bleh, what were our central defenders doing.....but oh my, taylor doing a helicopter jump for the player crossing cus he was bamboozled by a simple cut back by the burnley player.

[blunther]

That VAR call killed me off. And other people I think judging by the flat atmosphere 1-0 up in the second half. I can't abide it. I didn't celebrate the second/first. If we go down I'm quite happy to be done with that shit.

This . 

We are not cut off, and it’s going to be very tight down there this season. I still think we are waiting to see whether we are  good enough for this league or not, because imo the jury is still out after the few games we’ve had. You could make an argument for and against. I’m kind of stuck on the fence and I think a lot of other fans are the same.

Whilst it's clear we've been our own worst enemy at times and yes you make your own luck, it does feel like we're getting punished every time we make a mistake.

Yeah. I think Grealish left the winger too open initially but **** me, Taylor what are you doing mate?!
