I am frustrated like most of you but let's get things into perspective.
I enjoy watching us play now.
This has happened in a short space of time.
Right now that's enough for me
Time is an abstract concept.
Let's have patience instead.

{Ed025's Note - we are going to give someone a terrible hiding shortly pauly, we played some great stuff today and are good to watch now, take one or two of them chances first half and we win that game, we are on the way back and i know its all about results but i believe we are heading in the right direction mate..

24 Sep 2018 09:02:46
Agree with both of the above. It'd be doubly nice if that hiding came when we play that lot across the Park ;-p.

Good reply Ed mate, people entitled to their opinions but too many doom merchants for me mate, got to give the guy time.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - a lot of other teams supporters are saying the same thing GB so its not blind faith, we are far from being the finished article but the entertainment value is great and i believe the results will come mate..

24 Sep 2018 19:37:15
So do I Ed, we had a great passion and pace in the first half against the Gooners so close to scoring as well, it will come good of that I have no doubt mate.

I won't lie I'm always disappointed whe we loose but today's match was the first time in a long time we have gone to a top 6 team and had a go not just holding on from moment we kick off we went too win and bottom line is we never took our chances we could of been 2 up very early.
If we were not creating chances then yes worrying times but we had enough chances in last 2 defeats to of scored 5/ 6 maybe more, I feel that someone will be on the end of a drubbing, there is so much to be positive about this team so far than the last 2 seasons of garbage. We seem to have an identity back.
This team is going to get better we still have Mina and Gomes to come in which should make team better and also a fully fit Bernard.
January has to be a striker I know there not cheap but we are short there Richarlson and Walcott are not strikers.

I should be depressed but despite the result and the continuing winless streak against the Gooners there were a few signs today that things are moving in the right direction. If we can find a way to be more ruthless with the chances we're creating things should start improving. Compared to what's been on display the last few seasons I can't help but feel optomistic.

Its all if mate. We have had 6 games now, enough time to assess, especially when you look around at the Teams we are mixed with. I have heard a couple of posters saying just wait till we have Mina back etc! but in truth we have no idea what Mina is like, unless all based on the goal against England, apart from that the bloke did nothing. Digne looks good in parts but is similar to Baines in the fact he is a WB and not a LB. We are not a Team in transition, we are an established Squad that has had poor coaching and weaknesses have not been addressed. Very poor advice has been taken on who we bring in as coach. Mr Silva clearly does not have the pedigree in the Premiership to be Coach/ Manager of a Team with a plan and ambition, he will either yet again do a runner or pick up a hefty compensation package. You will never hear me booing my Team from the stands nor will I boo them on these HYS, but I will have my opinion. This fella will be gone by Christmas.

Baffling. Surely we have to give the man at least one full season before we start wanting his head. Continuity is the key, and patience the name of the game. So let's be patient and allow the man some time.

23 Sep 2018 20:25:08
We're never happy with our managers, but he's got to be better than big Sam let's give him a chance there's only 6 games gone 5 easy games and Arsenal today We're still light up front.

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 20:28:10
We’ve had 6 games now. listen to yourself. Give him a chance, even if we’d lost all 6 it’s still early days.

Agree2 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 20:46:14
That is precisely my point gibboEFC. Easiest start in years and we manage 6 points out of a virtual gimme of 15. Arsenal I knew we would be lucky for a draw. Yes 6 games but that is 1/ 3rd of possible points and I have seen posts already saying don't worry there are 3 Teams worse than us. Is that really what we have come to?

Agree1 Disagree1

23 Sep 2018 21:07:52
There's still a lot to play for boys, like I said short up front for another season, Tosun and Lookmam who never even came on.

Agree0 Disagree0

Fulham next.

23 Sep 2018 22:48:51
God I hope so that's 4 managers we have been sold . glad we have FM but whoever has been giving him advance has since he came in needs shooting and I think silver has to be the worst advice so far. who is running this club. And please don't say it's work in progress I'm sick of hearing excuse after excuse the club is rotting from the inside out . and don't even mention the new stadium or maybe they will now to keep us quiet.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 22:53:28
Six games in with a new manager new system new players some of which haven’t even been integrated into the squad and you want to judge on that?
Are you serious?

23 Sep 2018 18:08:40
Hate to say this but carragher hit the nail on the head with his assessment of us he’s spot on.

23 Sep 2018 18:23:03
for me davies and dcl don't offer anything. some might disagree but that's my take on it. dcl shoud have buried his chance in the first few mins.

23 Sep 2018 18:26:13
What did he say BB?

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 18:37:42
That we are good between the boxes but not good enough up top and our centre halves need a big brother to tell them where to go and hold their hands, myself I just don’t rate Keane he’s not good enough.

Agree3 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 19:09:17
We haven't had a settled back four yet. With jags suspension Coleman's injury, keanes injury the defence hasn't had time to play together. But I agree that someone needs to stand up and take on the roll of leader back there.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 19:10:15
No he is not.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 19:19:15
Why is he not.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 19:25:53
Cheers BB, and yes totally agree defence is shocking keane came with a good reputation but think we could have got better for what we paid we need a settled team one that we can pick week in week out and think we will see some decent results, still think we need a striker.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 19:44:13
I thought both Davies and Keane played well today. Our main weakness is up front. We should have been at least two up by half time. Theo missed a great chance when put through by Davies, and DCL should have just squared the ball to Richarlson for a tap in.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 20:13:04
No he is not! I meant Keane. Clearly either coaching is still not good enough or the quality we have for Central defence is not good enough or as is more probable a mixture of both. Watched my GrandSon's team lose 2-0 today to top of the league (at their place and they are very good) that side had the toughest game they will have all season, Grand Son's side were defeated by quality and not for lack of effort. To many times I see with our side (no names) not the same effort.

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 20:59:41
I just don’t rate Keane maybe with a leader beside him he’ll be better and I think Zouma needs a leader beside him also.

Agree2 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 21:48:55
We can blame defence all we want but the reason we lost today and last sunday was we failed to take our chances, goals wins you matches, that’s not to say there aren’t issues with our defence because there are but this is something that will take time to repair it’s a fault that’s been broke for years left too rot, Mina has been brought in to be the leader and I think he will sort out a lot off the problems certainly command box well but it will be about who partners him.
I’m happy so far with the way team are shaping even if results are poor at moment.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - you are so right metz, not taking our chances filters back to the defence and puts them under immense pressure not to concede, of course this makes them more nervous and we all know the rest mate..

23 Sep 2018 12:55:07
My team for today

GK Pickford

LCB Zouma CB Mina RCB Holgate LWB Digne RWB Kenny

Gueye

Walcott Bernard

Richarlison
Calvert-Lewin

We're probably going to play on the counter so Sigurdsson may be to slow, Gueye will brake up the play, should be strong with 5 at the back and Digne and Kenny can get forward if we take control without us having just the two CBs back, they can put some balls in to Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison can battle for rebounds and offer cutbacks.

my team for today would be

# Pickford

# Kenny Mina Zouma Dinge

# Siggy Sniderlain

# Walcott Bernard Richarlison

# Tosun

really think that could hurt the gunners.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

23 Sep 2018 12:41:43
I like that team mate. Mine would be similar but Gueye for Schniderlin and Baines for Digne, can’t afford our full backs to be out of position today against a good Arsenal team COYB!

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Sep 2018 12:48:10
think Morgan has been top draw lately and deserves it ahead of gana he was sloppy last week and that's being kind, not a bad player at all I love gana but on current form it's Morgan for me, and either way woth Baines and Digne both top players so no issues there for me mate.
