We're just getting worse and worse and I genuinely fear we could go down

We've spent 45 minutes doing nothing at all

After that half i think its possible. Lose to a Bournemouth side that hadnt won in 12, dismal against relegation fodder West Ham. Cant buy a point at home. Our defense now looks as bad as our forward line. Who can we actually beat going forwards? Thank fuck we probably only need 10 or so more points but i just dont see where we get them.

We are making this West Ham side look competent.

It's funny how often Frank's sides make teams in terrible form look pretty good. Even the games we have stolen points from, it hasn't been without making shit opposition look a constant threat.



He just has to go.

1-0 down and that performance on FH after a week off regardless if we go on to win the game he needs to go. Can’t inspire the players to put in a better performance than that at home v a struggling team. We should have been all over them and that is what Frank said we would do. He is a liar. He knows the significance of this game in terms the rivalry , league pos and his own tenure. Yet we produce that shite.
 
Frank hopefully has 45 mins to save his job. He has to try something different. We’ve got to give West Ham something to think about. Might be worth taking a punt in bringing Danso on and putting Van De Ven up front with his size and pace. Seems a tad desperate but these are desperate times!
 
All joking aside. What was the plan today?? What in todays game is different from last 15 games?
Where are we going after spam? Are we going at their weak points?
Its the same shit week after week with no changes to patterns if theres any, or the way we attack??
Our so called defensive quality this season is a fallacy. We concede chance after chance and only luck and shit finishing is saving us in multiple games.
Weve bought one of the best pressers in the game and we just sit off west ham do as they please.
Abject, cowardly, passive shit. Its mind boggling in its ineptness
 
He is meant to be good at organizing a team, but when we don't have the ball the space the other team gets to play is unreal. Hopefully Gallagher will do a bit of organizing on the pitch.
I predict Heitinga will be the manager and Gallagher the captain before mid-February.
 
The decision should have been made weeks ago. Clear as day it’s not going to work. Would have given the new/interim manager a kinder fixture list. Doing it now he’s on a hiding to nothing.

What was/is the rationale for keeping him. Cos Arteta, self preservation.

To reiterate, we've played awfully for over a year now.

That isn't a rebuttal of your point, but merely indicating that this hasn't suddenly become a thing - they were running around like they were blindfolded for most of last season too

Yep. This is fascinating because its like we"ve properly baked in crap. Its habitual. I think we need a angry assertive coach with his own established methodology. Pretty much Conte.
 
We've turned the corner, they said.

That second half last week showed better things are coming, they said.

Build the team around Muani/Tel/Simons/Odobert, they said.
