Exactly. Football fans vent frustration, always have, even pre internet you'd get it at the boozers aftet a game and with work colleagues. Its not some great big conspiracy to persecute a manager. It was more watchable today but it was hardly perfect. I still dont think we're getting as much out of the team as the sum of its parts , let alone more.

They haven’t conceded 5 since Nov 2017.
Let’s see how we do over the next 5 games.
Like you say though, to get back in the CL is huge, especially with fans back in the stadium next year.
He still struggles with his injuries... I would not write him off yet. His shots, speed and positioning are still on point.
His speed....
Are you watching what the rest of us are. He has sprited twice in his entire second spell at the club and he look like Abe Simpson.
They were or they played the wrong ball.
There is however, to his credit, a difference between "locking up" when you have a 2 goal lead and when you have a 1 goal one.
The issue to me at least is not that we fall back and play defence, but that we do it after only scoring one goal.
Cup win and top four, muchas gracias Jose
I'd be content with that.
D
Exactly. Parking the bus with a two goal lead is understandable. Doing it with just a one goal lead is reckless.
I swear his old Chelsea side used to play that way - push to create a decent lead then close the game down.

Jose needs to be sacked if we don't win the quadruple according to some fans here
We have been trying that in these games, but tiring. We had stupid shots against Newcastle and should have been well out of sight against Fulham. But we need to not be closing the game out until it’s ready to
If he does that he's done his job.
I agree on the pitch, but we can't possibly understand the influence of him and Hart et al. in the dressing room / training. Today was a stroll but I'm starting to feel like we might only concede to perfect goals from the oppo.
If the Dippers vs. ManUre was anything to go by we should be backing ourselves. Unlikely to win it, but if we don't Dare then we will never Do.
Yup. And realistically that should be our goal with how we play.
Get 2-3 goals, close it down. His Inter side had a lot of 1-0 wins but that of course comes with much more tension among the fans.
Jose doesn't do "champagne football". But with a few tweaks he will most likely have us playing "effective" football.
I'd rather the League Cup and the UEFA Cup and not have to give rat's gash about Top 4 if we're allowed to be picky
I’m the opposite to be fair. When we lose I don’t want to be near anything that has to do with football for a few days. When we win however I lap up everything: radio, podcasts, youtube, forums, Expressions Oozing, everything.
I’ll take ye having a moan than nothing at all. Team are trying and deserve more!
To be honest the sensible side of me says top 4 because of the dough etc but the real side of me says Cup Finl win, party down the High St etc!
Davies beaten in the air on Sheffield Utd’s goal, no?
