We have gone backwards since last season.
Too many changes in personnel, style and tactics.
It’s not working and he needs to work this out before it turns into a real slump.
Liverpool up next which could shatter their confidence even morel

Yes, but view with caution, it's the hip young interviewer that sounds like Darren Bent who tries overly hard to be mates with his interviewee:

No pace in the team, goal threat from midfield has disappeared and to be fair a tricky situation with with Watkins and Duran that's getting increasingly worse.

To be fair, Emery can point the finger at a number of players too. Has given chances to nearly every player in the squad in recent weeks but few have performed.

Yeh, that is the concern the shitness seems to be spreading through the whole squad.

What the fuck does he mean ‘it killed the game’ ?
There was nearly a full half to put it right and we bottled it.

That seems a strange take on a fuck up.
Does it mean we now give up after 50 mins if we go behind?

Yeah, what a weird thing for Konsa to say. A bizarre penalty against us with over half an hour to go against a bang average team and 'it kills the game'.

Doesn't say good things about our mentality at the moment. Very defeatist.

Emery comment which seems rinsed and repeated from Sunday:

Quote
We played the first half more or less, as planned. The control was for us and created very good chances.

We had to avoid mistakes but we made the biggest mistakes in the second half and that was the key.

If that was the game plan thats deeply  worrying as the game plan seemed to be to play shit and create virtually nothing

He is better just saying it was a terrible performance and we need to see improvement or there will be immediate changes to the side

He's getting a lot things wrong at the moment, and should not be immune to criticism.

Hot on the heels of McGinn's clumsy interview on Sunday

I haven’t seen the game yesterday, but as a general point, isn’t it about time he sorted the defence out? Our strongest team and bench yesterday, and we get absolutely destroyed. The defence has been below par for way too long now.

We need a proper leader at CB. None of Pau, Konsa and Carlos are that.

This is true. Despite his brain fart tonight, I think we’re missing Mings organisational ability.

We've gone from the best start in 25 years to losing three consecutive gamesnijnthebsoace of a week.

Hopefully the international break will clear some heads and we get back on it straight after. Saturday is a big test now too.
