We are a very good side but soft as fuck mentally. A game that we should never lose but you can see it coming. Top teams take Newcastle apart with that much dominance but not us. We don’t have the balls to be a top team.

Which top team has taken them apart at their place recently? They beat Woolwich, walloped Villa, PSG and Chelsea, beat United. Lost by the odd goal to City, it happens. Their away form is poor but at their place they are very strong.

I think turning on Ange is premature, the memory of the horrific football we played under Jose, Nuno and Conte is still fresh. I will happily give Ange this season before I let Levy get away with throwing him under the bus

Our performances and progress has been linear though, just in the wrong direction.

Bollox has it. we went from finishing 8th to finishing 5th.

We went from having a decrepid old squad to a refreshed young squad.

The line is going up but everyone panics everytime it dips and clings onto the issues more than the solutions. Perfect example being set pieces. Massively improved set pieces at both ends but because we conceded our first counter attack goal of the season in gameday 3, that's what they will fixate on.
 
We lose at St, James and we lose at Stamford Bridge.That’s just how it goes it seems. Even at the Emirates or Etihad, I feel we can get a draw. Old Trafford we win.

4th 5th to 8th. Could easily end up anywhere between those places.

Laughable...apparently we dominated that game..
That says it all imo, dominated a Newcastle side who have signed nobody..and still we don't have the ability or quality to win ...pathetic performance to go with the piss poor transfer window...not one player we bought improves this team, again they are just more of the same 2nd rate players at best..we just have a few more of them now......pathetic

We have much better players than Newcastle. From their squad Guimaraes, Gordon, Isak and maybe a Joelinton or Tonali at a push would be interesting for us.

Joelinton was very average today. Wouldn't take him. Agree on the others. But they were at home, when we were trying to win games like that under Conte it was "unsustainable" and everyone was moaning at how we let team dominate us. And let's face it, they crumbled under the press several times, we just didn't punish them.

Not allowed to discuss politics so you and the gang have taken to harassing me across the football forums instead, fun stuff.

I don't like you, what you stand for, and fundamentally who you are. So I'd suggest boring somebody else.

Have a fantastic afternoon.
