Just arrived at work. Today has been exceptionally underwhelming in many many ways.

Wake me up when September ends

All very flat.

Good save by Henderson. Other than that just not moving it fast enough

Sleepwalking into a relegation battle.

Your usual hyperbole, but actually watching that, it'd be hard to disagree.  We are abject.

The thing is whatever the restrictions are there is a feeling we’ve given up and it seems to be reflected by the team.

Christ knows what's happened with Villa.
We just piss about with the ball in possession - no attempt to play quick through balls.

Concede at the earliest opportunity and then we're clueless against the low block that follows.

Another one for Palace is more likely than an equaliser.
