You'd think? It reminds me of the poster on here earlier who said they became more calm when they saw Werner was being subbed on- they knew we'd lose and didn't have to worry about the outcome anymoreIsn’t that his entire job?

Closing the stable door after the horse has bolted was what I was aiming for , clearly it didn’t land. I never actually watched the clip
We were extremely unlucky, we should have won at least 5-0, Wermer hit the post twice, perfect Richy goal disallowed and denied 2 pens.

That he wins a Trophy in his second season is fact, but I have never heard him set that as an objective here, I have heard him say winning a Cup or finishing top four isn't an achievement though in the long term of things.
Making statements like this removes responsibility from the results he presides over.
I can't say that we look any more solid, robust or different than last season when you actually look at our overall results.
I am all for buying youth and players for the future, but we are full of them now, we need a leader of the team not a prospect that will, maybe, could be good.
Without rubbing salt in the wounds, Woolwich went and shored up their midfield with Rice, the cost was irrelevant they knew who they wanted and went and got him.
What happened to Eze over the Summer that ended up us getting Odobert?
It will be some eighteen year old Venezuelan plucked from Rochdale.
Because we are good at planning for the 2030 season.
Nasty Crusty Palace went and put a £69m buyout price on his head....
That's just not playing ball is it?
And what im saying is we're still not getting the results enough when we are playing well!! Were not getting the results playing bad either!
i've been rick rolled
Oh man I temporarily forgot he had said that. Making blatantly hubristic statements like that is like asking the Universe itself to arrange itself against you and put you in your place. I hate when people I am close with say things like that publicly because you know you're being (publicly; dramatically) setup for a huge failure.
So many teams we "outplay" and win null points.
Spurs are the UK of the European Song Contest, sound pretty good in rehearsals but live they sound like fingernails being dragged down a chalkboard.
Ange will win nothing with us, nothing, and he can say as many patronizing "mates" as he wants in his suck my dick prezzer meetings.
I agree. But so what? You can't do anything about either of those things. Over the long term, playing well usually does result in winning games, and I'm sure it will for us too. But playing badly and winning, that's some kind of dark arts that no one really understands. As i said before, under Jose didn't we start a season with loads of results that we didn't deserve? Weren't we top in early November that season? But, predictably, it wasn't sustainable, we fell apart for the rest of the season. To win consistently over the long term, you need to play well, that's the (pretty obvious) key. So performances are very important. Yes, I'd love so scrape a result that we don't deserve sometimes, but playing well over the long term is much more important for success - and for me, this season, we've mostly been playing very well.
I get some people saying Coventry but that was a weakened team , we were full strength today but palace wanted it more , that is not an ability problem that’s a mentality problem , let’s hope Ange can fix itAbsolutely this. All of it. We were rubbish today, for the first time this season, in the league anyway. Hopefully just a bad day at the office, and hopefully therefore we'll be much better next week.
I have watched every Brummie game this season so far, and Chris Davies has a side playing some very good football.
Maybe a fanciful suggestion but for all the "winners" Levy has hired how many have ground themselves into the dust after a season or two?
Fans said Jose and Conte were set in their ways, does anyone think Ange is open to tactical change?
Hurzeler is just thirty one, Iraola forty two, why can't we take a punt on up an coming (like we do with players) rather than an established journeyman?
Fascinating analogies.
But what was the answer to my question? I'll ask again: when you said 'poor, poor game from us again', which other game(s) were you referring to when we were so poor in your opinion? When this season in the league did we play as badly as we did today?

Bob the builder couldn’t fix us
He offers nothing unless he gets on the end of a cross for a tap in. When you want out ball he is not your man. Too weak, not commited enough and never wants to beat a man. As for his general passing less said the better.
It true, when he's not scoring, it seems like he's not doing very much. I wish he would take his man on down the line much more- we are missing some directness in our running.
Great i hope we continue to play this well and finish 12th.
But as you say. So what. We cant do anything about it
Eze was right there and we dropped the ball.
Would have taken us to another level. It's even more laughable since we switched to this wild Kulu/Madders midfield experiment out of desperation.
The happy clappers were asking where he would play. The guy walks into our team.
There’s no way Levy is spending 60 million-plus on a forward and then another near 70 million on a player to split time with Maddison.
Would only happen if we got a massive fee for Richarlison.
