Oh no, really? The fact is we are not playing like that 10 starting games anymore and we are never going unbeaten in 10 games again as teams figured out how we play. Our form has bin shite since then and there's nothing that suggests it's gonna change, can you undestand that or you need someone to draw it to you?
I doubt you can draw much better than a left handed 5 year old being forced to use their right hand by a cross eyed art teacher.

Don’t draw anything for me you cretin.
 
We hammered Newcastle and Villa last year. One at home, the other away. We split the games with Liverpool too.

The issue is consistency and only consistency when it comes to killing games off.
I said playing these teams away. Apart from Villa we took 3 points from city,Woolwich,Liverpool,Utd,Newcastle and Chelsea. So out of those away games we took 6 points from a possible 21. Only 1 win at Villa.
I enjoy the way we play and don’t think we are a million miles away but we have no fucking balls to win at these places. Ultimately that’s why we are a 4th/5th/6th place club.

At home I fear nobody but it’s those tough away games that separate from being a good team to a top team. We are a good team but nothing else. This club is set up to be the best but sadly we are not.

We could have went and got pretty much any striker and a top winger and showed the intent to get better. I like solanke and Odobert but we go with data now rather than getting top players who turn those defeats into draws and draws into wins at these places.
 
I will call it now. Postecoglou won't be here next season.

No idea hoqw this season pans out but Solanke is already a worry and Richarlison is a waste. We have no physical presence up top or in midfield.

It wikl break us. It already is.
 
Why cherry pick 30 matches.

We finished 5th over 38 last season.

This season we have only played 3 games and they have been nothing like last year. This fixture last year was nothing like today.

I hope Ange succeeds ; 100 % . Just to make that clear.

But a “ rolling league position “ based on our last 38 games isn’t cherry- picking IMO .

It gives an indication ( nothing more tbf ) of where we actually are , in terms of progress, relative to those we have to be better than . 9th to 6th probably sums us up , over the past “ hypothetical “ 38 games .

Not relegation material; but possibly less than we should be achieving.

I’m sure Ange gets that and wants to address why we’re under par . I really, really hope he manages to do so .
