The positive thing is that we're not being royally fucked over every week. We're in games but stupid errors cost us.We can do this. And I believe we will.
It’s because we have no striker options. Kodja being injured leaves only Davis. If Smith sticks with 4-3-3 he has to play Wesley who lacks consistency along with AEG and Trez.
Is it safe to come back on the site yet? Have all the titty-babbies finished their crying? Have all the infants finished blowing their snot-bubbles? Have all the Mystic Megs finished telling us how the rest of the season will go? From their font of wise and truthful knowledge and their complete stock of inside information?

If this were a site for schoolkids you’d feel justified in saying ‘Stop being so childish, you’re fourteen now; act like it’.
I'm concerned that we've conceded five very preventable goals in the last two games due to defensive lapses. That was our strong point up to then. I'm concerned that Wesley doesn't seem to be cutting the mustard but Smith seems wary of giving Davis a run. Surely it's worth a try? I'm concerned Smith is persisting with Taylor who is (usually) just about ok defensively but offers nothing going forward. I'm concerned that Trezeguet shows some good touches but lacked composure when wasting two or three clear chances which could have given us two goal cushions. I'm also concerned that refs and VAR officials have given some bloody awful decisions against us, a trend that needs to change if we are to have any chance. I'm concerned that we can't seem to last more than 70 minutes without looking knackered. I'm concerned that we seem to fall apart when faced with only 10 men. I'm concerned that Smith seems dumbfounded when the opposition make formation and tactical changes, and slow to react when our players are obviously knackered. I'm concerned that there aren't any obvious relegation fodder teams in the PL this year - even Watford looked they could play a bit against Arsenal. Apart from that everything is fine and dandy, and it is only September....
We're one point off 17th, (which effectively should be our target). We're 3 points off 11th (and being above Man Utd).One draw behind Norwich, one win behind Sheffield United. If we'd not lost all those points from winning positions we'd have another 8 and be third. Basically this is absolutely not the time to panic. We're giving away silly goals but we can, and will, get better.
