Lost to bournemouth, lost to Norwich, drew with palace and city. each game I said we were poor. First it was a blip then it's because city are the best team in the prem what's the excuse today we need to stop watching everton with blue tinted glasses.

Again, like your posts on the 'other posts' page, you are talking out of your arse. How many games have we lost under RK? Do you really believe that we are no better than we were under the last regime? We would have won the game if their keeper didn't make so many saves, we were the better team throughout. Yes we lost but it wasn't from a lack of trying. If we had just lay down and let them run through us then you would have a point but that didn't happen. Get a grip of yourself lad as your posts are becoming so depressing.

Skylark, are you seriously comparing us with the team of the last 3 years? I would agree that we still need some creative midfielders and another goalscorer. But players like Mirallas and Barkley are capable of scoring but are misfiring a bit at the moment. In all honesty we should have won that game easily. We dominated and had twice as many shots as them . Twice as many shots on target and committed fewer fouls. One of their players should have been sent off and overall we are gutted to have lost. Last season we played so many games where we looked like we would never score. At least in yesterdays game it was a shock when they scored.

Burnley have not conceded more than 1 goal at home since 2015, a 19 game run. That tells you something about the organisation of the side at home. Bournemouth are no pushovers and have just held Spurs who are tipped to be title challengers. Instead of constantly looking for negatives be grateful we have a management team in place to move us forward. On another day, they go down to 10 men and we win by 3 or 4 goals, but that didn't happen. They had a plan to sit back and suffocate us, which they executed well. It's early in the season and we are still experimenting with tactics and formations as the management team didn't get a full pre season. I know it's a banter site and every poster is entitled to opinions but the same posts become monotonous, and get put on the other posts section as even the Eds are bored of it.

Agree with spudv and Degsy. All some people want to do is give out. Club going in a good direction. Things will get better with time. Some people just won't allow time to improve things. IMHO we have improved plenty in the short time this new regime is here.

The way I look at it; Koeman has done everything right so far and we've been going in the right direction, but there is still strong hints of Martinez's influence in the team. Hopefully this will be ironed out over time and we'll stop throwing away points like this.

In fairness skylark we dominated against Burnley, Heaton and Keane had blinders for them and nine times out of 10 afield miss controls the volley and putsit in row z. it was one of those games.
Look at ronny at saints last year. had a blip of a few games where he lost, got his act together and they came back stronger. Efc will be the same.
Do need a decent January though.

maybe its simply the team strength overall is just not good enough! Remember RK and the directors talk about a project, which I'm sure will take time to initiate, we had a reasonably unsuccessful pre season in terms of strengthening in numbers, what has come in has improved but we have a squad full of players that cannot make us any better at this time.

Thinking the exact same thing Ander Barkley.
