I think Forster and Davies are holding their own to be fair.

We lost 2-0 to Chelsea and 4-0 to Newcastle last season when we were at pretty much full strength and both of them were "bare bones"
When we lost to Palace, Son was the only senior player missing. And he's been shite most of the season.
Similar for Brighton.
It's injuries when there are injuries. so what is it when there's not injuries?
makes me laugh this. how on earth is this perceived to be good football anyway? whats good about it? the fact its entertaining for neutrals because we are so shit? good football is football that wins games, it doesnt have to be tiki taka, it can be straight out of serie A in the 90s where 1-0 wins were respected as clean professional jobs.
They have both been fantastic and are playing at their peak levels. Credit to both. I'd argue neither of their form is sustainable but hopefully they can keep it up
lol, a lot of managers would like to come here.
Dealing with pressure is part of the job.
Just need to stay strong and see where we are at end of season. Ange said he wins something by season 2 so thats his benchmark.
Forster and Davies were excellent yesterday. In fact Davies has been excellent since VDV got injured.
Werner and Solanke is apples and oranges. Werner did fine yesterday, it was Son who stepped into Solankes spot yesterday and was posted missing. But it's trendier and easier to bash Werner.
Taking off Maddison when we were looking for a winner against 10 men was absurd. It was a sign we were settling for the point. Cowardly.
It's a myth and one that has been perpetrated by the media because the games are entertaining for neutrals because of how open they are and by our own supporters who think anything is better than Conte ball.
Exactly. Reasses in MAy when we have a much clearer picture of where we are at as a club. Impossible to have a strong read on the team at the moment. We are flawless some games and then look clueless the next.
Everyone is handpicking their own games to suit whatever side of the agenda they are on. The truth is somewhere in the middle and its impossible to have a strong read on what the truth is right now.
to be fair if some mugs like villa had their FB's occupying the playmakers space and leaving two at the back all the way up to the halfway line, id tune in too for a laugh and some entertainment. neanderthal football.
or trying to squeeze the opposition into their 18 yard box and have son and johnson trying to play in tight spaces...hilarious.

I don’t find all this losing, dropping points from winning positions, always conceding, and generally looking shit anytime we’re not playing City to be ‘entertaining football’.

it is for neutrals tho and thats the main thing for postecoglou.
The only 2 that didn't do much wrong yesterday.
Well, by all the metrics, he should be sacked. Sacking him being a good choice is a different matter though. It depends on how much you trust Levy to replace him with someone who can do a better job within the structure the owners have created, which is frankly, a losing environment.
I think the real question is, is it possible that someone else coming in could do worse than Ange? Or is it more likely they will outperform him?
Sorry mate, I don’t rate anything you say because you’re just a one eyed Ange out cultist. Fair play to you, we’re all allowed our opinion.
And you obviously didn’t watch the presser, or comprehended what was said. The squad has been annihilated. And it’s a very light squad to start with.
And for what it’s worth, if Ange doesn’t turn it around by seasons end and either win a trophy and/or finish top 5, sack him. He’ll probably resign tbh. Because Ange is a quality manager. You all sneer and carry on at his credentials. Managed at 2 world cups, yes boo hoo the A League but set it on fire. Same in Japan and Scotland. Football is football and tbh you can’t get any higher than a World Cup.
I have faith still. Let’s see what happens when everyone is back on deck.
And as for all the experts on here talking tactics. If you’re so good why aren’t you managing?
Agreed. The reason we don't get more bites when we're shopping is the cost of getting them.
We should go balls deep to get Iraola out of Bournemouth before City move in from Pep.
We tried that with Conte and it didn’t work

Oh no the Aussie fanboy who literally would stick by Ange no matter what because he shares his nationality doesn’t rate what I say!!!!
Yeah he did well in some backwater leagues. I could name about fifty complete nobodies who have managed in a World Cup. Gareth Southgate has got to Euro finals and World Cup semi finals, shall we hire him tomorrow?
‘Set the A league on fire’
Mate the A league is Npower League one level at absolute best, nobody fucking cares, seriously.
