I was trying to work out where I’d seen these ‘meh’ performances before - 04/05 when Redknapp Jr was stealing a living. However, even then our forwards were light years ahead.

Don’t think they have kept a clean sheet for ages.
Angie’s last 10 league games were miles worse than this! You don’t have to harken too far back really.. at the very least we are not conceding goals left right and centre anymore.
We’ve been no better than in the europa league games last season. We were shit in most of those group games.
Every other English side scoring for fun in the CL 
Always ok to upgrade anyone, right ?
Never ok to downgrade, which is possibly where we find ourselves.
If they dick us around in January, the torches need to come out immediately and we just hound the fuckers out.
Non-stop campaign until they go sell up.
We miss a midfielder who passes the ball forward.
Needs to start the next game
I honestly think that's a myth. On another day Monaco could have scored 5 and people will forget Frank's merit is making us harder to score.
Solid is having an identity. For Frank he wants us to be more defensive, then let's do low block and hit them on the counter. Like Mourinho did. We still got to celebrate goals you know.
Right now we try to attack but fizzled out every single time. Every dead balls we took so fucking long and all our momentum, if any at all, dropped. We are so slow to anything, and were neither here nor there. We wouldn't thrash many teams this season and I think we will lose a fair amount of games.
He made a series of stunning saves yes
If you offered our squad or Monaco’s to 99% of neutrals they’d choose ours.
Somehow we also never have a system that makes players look better than they are but every team we play seems to have exactly that.
Akliouche is the only player in their squad that really looks a serious talent. They ripped us apart at will.
Imagine if we had Minamino coming off the bench? The board would get ripped to pieces
