It's a bit chicken and egg though. The performances are so dull. It's hard to get excited when we fanny about in possession so much. The atmosphere was good in the first half after the goal and whilst we looked likely to get a 2nd. It tailed off as the performance did. The thing about our style of play is that there's very little to get off your seat for, we never have a quick 3v2 counter attack, everything is so measured and most of the time whatever possession we do have amounts to nothing.
Don't question a coach with such a good track record at this level. He has an ology in defending and boring everyone to xxxxxxx death. His way is the only way, we know that because he's always telling us. This team on paper should do a lot better than they are doing at the moment, fact.
Four points from this game and Saturday's is par. We've now got to go to Leicester and win. Not easy.
Waiting for someone to call this a ‘meltdown’. Yet we see it and say it time and time again. Possession does not win you games of football. 4 shots on target at home against a poor side is unforgivable. You can play pretty football all you like. The only positive tonight was the desire to win the ball back. But then we kept going back as usual to take the sting out of it. Horrendous tactics.
Groundhog Day, déjà vu.... Why do we keep doing the same thing and expecting different outcomes. God it's frustrating...it's clear as day for everyone to see, yet we seem to do sweet fcuk all about it.... It's going to cost us unfortunately
Just got back to the car , for once I’m not driving ! Ruddy had one good save to make ,the shot from Tufan in the first half and that was it !! Just not good enough and not ever enough chances created at home , flattering to deceive with nice possession football but no end product YET Again !
If you say so, but you can't argue that our home form is poor. If was as good as Norwich or wba we'd be a couple of points behind soton
Tinpot said it too! The crowd want something to cheer about, the players need backing to bring out a top performance (see: Soton, Hudd, etc.).
