Another nothing year to come. Maybe 5th or 6th.
Until enic & levy go it’s average shit every year. Even worse now it’s all about praying city don’t get a points deduction & they stop Woolwich. Enic & levy, how to suck the life out of a club & make your fan base so low & unambitious. No trophies & finish Within 20 points of Woolwich is an acceptable season under enic & levy now.
 
Annoying that our pressing and passing today was pretty decent, albeit with little end product having no out and out striker. But am getting thoroughly pissed off with this two passes from the opposition simply carving us open, then goal. Just can’t keep playing that way.

Same as the second half of last season

Found out against the Chavs
 
If you’re shit at defending you just simply have to take some of your many chances. Fucking appalling today.
That's the Ange mantra. It's never about defending. It about scoring more than your opponents. Can everyone just accept that? And if that's the play we wanna go with, then the heaviest responsibility really lies on the attacking players. But times and again they keep making the wrong decisions in the final ball. Pass instead of shoot. Shoot instead of pass. To a point it's really disgusting.
 
Similar problem as Leicester away.

We take too long in attack. Looking for specific passes. So we allowed Newcastle to get back in defensive shape every single time. Death by self strangulation.
 
Don't know what's harder, being thrashed 5 nill and 4 nill and being made to look really inferior as the last 2 times up there

Or dominating a team completely, having well over 20 attempts but not being able to score and losing by one goal

As the commentator on my stream said if we had one of our number 9s, Newcastle probably would've been on the end of a hammering
Today is definitely more frustrating.

This team kills me because you can see what it’s capable of, but it can’t deliver the results we need.
