At least we didn’t lose. I have to ask. If Jack is an 80 million pound player, What is Saint maximin worth? Swap him with Jack and we win that game in my opinion. Our star needs to do more.
At least Luiz is showing his potential.
It’s easy to forget that every team around is us as shit as us. It will come down to who’s the least shittest over the next 8 games and right now it’s back in our hands. Coming on VT after match day makes me feel like relegations already been confirmed.
People seem to forget how good teams like Chelsea are. They bought on a 50 million pound player at half time. They were able to bring on Tammy with 10 minutes to go. Our fans need a reality check.
Come on Tro. You’ve played football in your life before surely? When you play against poorer players no matter how hard they try they can only stop you for so long. They huff and puff but can’t get near you. The same when you play against players much better than you. I’ve played in games when I’ve collapsed I’ve ran so hard but not got near players that are much better than me.
Obviously we aren’t professional players but it’s all relative. They are trying. They are just up against some of the best in the world and it’s telling.
Sooner we understand this the sooner we’ll get over this ‘they don’t care’ perception we seem to have
That’s the gulf in quality Tro. It’s massive. I don’t buy they aren’t trying. They just aren’t good enough. I’m looking at Newcastle, Palace, West Ham and Arsenal games we have a small chance of getting something out. But even then it’s a long shot. Wolves, Liverpool and Man U I don’t think we have a chance.
I just think the gulf in class was massive. The crowd can sometimes give poor players a boost and now that has gone as well. It’s not looking good. They were trying. It was just men against boys.
I hate it when a game always comes back to how we are crap. Every game is different for ffs. If football was a simple as team A beat team B and team A are shit so we should have also beaten team B football would be very predictable .
Agree. But Maupay chose Brighton and Brentford wouldn’t sell Benzama for 20M. Yes in hindsight we should have done whatever it took to sign them both but it would have been risky spending more than a third of our budget on them.
It depends on how our rivals do. They draw or lose then a point against Chelsea is fine. The main thing is not to fall too far behind. There’s still 27 points to play for.
