I just posted on our board, 2-0 up to Spurs at HT and cruising. From that moment we've dropped 8 points out of 12. Definitely a mindset thing going on. Manager has to earn his stripes here.
I just want our next game asap. Hate this wait now. Funny thing is I was looking forward to us finally playing once a week It's a funny old game.
He's turned you round quite well, I think - but hasn't quite instilled that winning mentality yet, that feeling where you expect to win.
We definitely had it in that period for 2/3 months after the WC. Injuries/suspensions scuppered that and it's never fully recovered even with players returning. Lisandro is still a big loss, as is Garnacho but with Eriksen and Casemiro back we should be doing better. Fck knows tbh, which makes me think it's the attitude of the players. And we also need certain positions sorted for him to instill that feeling. Having no CF doesn't help.
Eriksen and Casimero are nothing like they were before injury/suspension. No idea why but they need to shake it off quick.
You stopped kicking it to the big lad up top (WW) to flick on for the fast lad (MR) to run onto and score. Need to go back to those tactics and stop trying to play actual football from the back
Penalty shoot out. I've watched football up and down the land, nothing has ever come close to the tension watching those boys walking towards the Penalty spot. Bloody intense
Only if we win every game remaining. I imagine we'll drop points at least once, so realistically they only need to win two of four.
Not midnight yet. I need to sleep, need to wake early tomorrow but wife is snoring away so browsing the forums. Can't sleep if she falls asleep before me.
