I've no idea where our next win will come from.
I don't know a worse team than us in the league either.
Very worrying times if a new manager doesn't arrive soon.

Away at Fulham, maybe.
Leicester, Forest, Wolves and Southampton.

I was going to say. We’re doing poorly, way below what’s acceptable, but we could easily win a few games. There’s a lot of dross in this league. Doesn’t mean Gerrard shouldn’t go, I’ve had enough now, but I think we’ll win some soon.

Next two are big games in trying to put ourselves in a more respectable position. To be fair, if we finally beat Brentford then I'd give him a contract for life.

Two individual errors that would destroy most teams, Mings wasn't under any pressure when he fcked up and a goalkeeper should never be beaten from that distance, just plain bad positioning. Every change the manager made weakened us, yet Ings and Watkins were left on even though they were running on empty all second half. We had a credible first half but it appears most of our players are not capable of ninety minutes.
Gerrard has had enough time and money, I hope the club has already been sounding out a replacement.

Of the sides from 10th down, so the 10 worst in the division besides us, we've played 7 of them and won 2.

That just about sums us up, same last season, played well against the better teams and failed against teams we should have beaten.

Was it actually a foul for the free kick resulting in the second goal? It didn’t look like one.

Two goals from set pieces against us in two games. Remind we what MacPhee does again?

If only we could score disappointed again but we go to Fulham next.

It had to be, otherwise it would be more difficult to attach blame to Mings.

Better display but a fully expected result. It’s not days like today, it’s the Leeds, Forest, Bournemouth, Palace, West Ham that have put us here.

We can’t score yet concede dumb, avoidable goals. That usually only has one outcome. Surprised more people aren’t mentioning relegation to be honest.

We're bang in trouble. We have a rookie manager with a poor top flight record, terrible form, light weight and small players and an air of despondency around the club, led by owners who are letting things drift along. We can't score and we have a rick in us. We are smack bang in a relegation fight right now.

Fantastic.

Yes. Mings made contact with the player then the ball

I think MacPhee is as pointless as everyone else but not sure he can be blamed for Emi completely misjudging where the ball was going, that would be on Cutler if he's still here.
