Would you mind elaborating?
Very poor today but they are an excellent team. DS got his selection wrong though as Guilbert should have started, as should Engels. As fans we were crap also though, atmosphere was terrible.
Quote from: Keeno on December 08, 2019, 03:49:52 PMCan everyone take stock before conceding relegation in early December. We've been soundly beaten by one of the best sides in the country if not Europe at the moment. Had a really bad run of fixtures, and if anyone thinks we WEREN'T going to be in a relegation battle after coming up through the playoffs, you're having yourself on. We've looked good in all but one of the games against teams we are ACTUALLY competing with this season. That doesn't mean there haven't been poor mistakes from players and management today - but can we get a bit realisticSorry mate, but this is blind optimism. We’ve played almost all of the other sides in the league, spent the GDP of a small country, and are hovering around the bottom three.I’d be optimistic and a little more patience if I could see at least small improvements in performance, team selection and subs, but frankly, we’re not. If anything we’re going backwards.Being plucky underdogs will not keep us up. Smith and the players need a rocket. And fast.

Stupid individual errors are costing us. Even today we had plenty of decent attacking opportunities. I'm again very disappointed but you have to allow for the fact this is a very inexperienced team.

And yet nowhere near as fucking stupid as the interview you want.
For me they were comfortably the best side we've faced this season. Add in that we made a load of stupid mistakes, had a number of players below par and we're probably lucky it was only 4.

Add in that we made a load of stupid mistakes, had a number of players below par and we're probably lucky it was only 4. We've been saying the same thing all season. At Spurs stupid mistakes let them back in the game late which we ended up losing. Against Bournemouth stupid mistakes gifted 2 goals and we lost that. In every game we have lost stupid mistakes have cost us. Even in the win vs Norwich a stupid mistake cost as goal. The question is why are we still making stupid mistakes week after week? Why has a manager like Steve Bruce, who we all saw hardly has an amazing team managed to do what is needed to climb to a very solid mid table position. Or Chris Wilder not having spent much at all over the last few seasons got his promoted side to a very solid top half position. This comes down to the manager, who is revealiong himself to be both naive and dare I say it arrogant in his unwillingness to adapt. His stubborness to continue to persevere with a CF who is struggling is mind boggling. If it's not working try something else. Change things up. This is not going to end well for Dean Smith because new contract or not if we start to get detached from the mid table postions then he'll be gone.
Why the fuck would I be scared of an interview. If they decide he's not the man for the job then they should sack him, i'm just not needy enough to demand an interview saying that.
Don’t blame Wesley for being crap at the moment.Blame the board for thinking they could get away with this forward line in the transfer window.Unforgivable.Saying that, I’d drop him for Trez as a forward. All this big centre forward holding up balls stuff is so old.
