I never seriously considered you could be relegated until watching that. It’s hard to see how you stay up.

There was no reaction to going a goal down and your players just constantly chucking themselves on the floor. That’s not because they’re aren’t big physical lads. They’re just aren’t mentally up for a battle.

It's a mixture of zero confidence and players who have completely given up and are already dreaming of their summer moves to Madrid which won't happen.
The two CB's will be gone no question. Total rebuild around the academy players and move on. Not sure I've ever seen the club in such a poor state player wise.
 
Still enough points but forward players not good enough to score. Need two or three wins in a row (or for other teams to do us a favour). Personally, not too bothered if we do down if it means we win most weeks but in the long term it’s ENIC OUT who have caused our present problems.
 
Last chance saloon next week. Fail to win and we’re done.

The reactions to going a goal down are the most worrying. What little confidence there is just gets sucked away and we never look like getting back into games.

Shame that the one time we did score first, one of what should be our key players in this battle gets himself sent off. Our current situation could have been so different.

Not saying we deserved anything, but I would like to know what the definition of endangering an opponent is.
Refs "managing" games is always a recipe for disaster as it usually translates to not carding anyone for the first 10-15 minutes no matter how card-worthy the challenge etc is, then start carding players who are ****ed off at being fouled with impunity for 10-15 minutes, and the game spirals

In our case that Chelsea match ten years ago is an obvious example, as Clattenburg had lost control within five minutes (and that’s before bringing up his later comments, which make his performance all the more suspect) while the 2010 World Cup final was one the whole world saw - and the bloke who ****ed it is in charge of PGMOL, so of course standards are going be be lower than an armadillo's ballsack
