Not so sure our abysmal form is just about formations. They have got to be given the go ahead and ambition to attack and get forward fast. And not to keep making endless sideways passes across our own goalmouth inviting problems

It happens to us nearly every tine we play a top team away from home. It's called mentality.

We can't win anything until it's fixed and that has been the case for years.

Pochettino got within a whisker but in the end he could not deliver because he could not provide what the likes of Ferguson, prime Mourinho and in truth what Conte possess.

Conte is having to try and turn round years of inferiority and to me that's more the issue..

So you think Conte needs more time after a year?

I was hoping that our style of play would kick I. This season but for me sadly it hasn’t

Yep longer and probably 2 more windows.

It's the assessment though when we get to season end. If we finish lower than 4th and I think that's very possible, and do nothing in the cups, and despite a fair number of acquisitions then maybe not.

We needed to have done better against Woolwich and United. The style of play could be better but frankly I am quite pragmatic in that regard. I really don't want to sit in a pub or elsewhere and hear we play good football and sit 10th. Not this fan.

So let's see but more time as in beyond this season, absolutely but not at the expense of signs of progress.

Right now it's just teetering a bit.
 
Tough game.

Think we'll win but by the narrowest of margins, maybe a late goal or alternatively an early one but with a very nervy finish.

Fair enough but quite a few of our fans are rightly pissed off with what we’re being served up even when we win

Not good enough and if it goes on after Xmas and the next window we should look elsewhere for a manager

I get what you’re saying about playing well and finishing 10th

“It’s better to fail aiming high than to succeed aiming low” said a great manager

On Wednesday night we aimed low and yet we still failed!!

Not sure we aimed low as opposed to stayed limp but get your point of course.
