I think it’s more likely that the blame goes to (a) the way we spent the summer offloading players and buying for the future, bringing in only one real first-teamer in his prime (Solanke), and (b) the injury crisis, particularly to our top two central defenders.

We are just a premier league team who make up the numbers now.
We are miles off it. We had a 3 minute spell out of 49 mins where we could have scored 2 and did score. Apart from that we are offering nothing. Woolwich are good at one thing and we continually give away free kicks and corners. That’s suicide football. We can’t string 3 passes together and we are still playing suicide football.
Sarr offering nothing and has to come off for madders. This either goes 4 or 5 or we get something out of this.
Why is Gabriel allowed to dictate when a corner is taken? They take a minute for each corner.
This is as poor of a Woolwich side for a long time but they are miles in front of us in belief of their ability.

Even so, I just can't see us doing anything.
Son should still come off for Maddison and he's not going to do it.
I'd also stick on moore for kulu.
Scum ain't winning this league btw.
they are rancid.
That’s the problem. We’ve kept passing the ball around between our defenders and gk for so many games this season.
Spence with the diagonal , play up the line the way you were facing , never blindly roll back into danger when you don’t know what’s behind you , it’s poor
You also need good technicians to move the ball. With Drag and Sarr we struggle big time.
What has been remotely gung ho about tonight?
Ange is cooking
I’m guessing for the poor tackle that was an obvious and correct yellow.
If we got reds for that we’d lose our shit.
Winning EL? No chance mate.
They wouldn't. They know we are toothless.
He only had to slip the 1-2 back to Spence. Instead, just like Kulusevski every tiem he has the ball, he turned the wrong way and was weak.
I think we did ok in the first half considering our lineup and the occasion. Just some mistakes as usual costing us.
Dragusin needs to stop trying to play out though. The occasion is probably too much for Kinsky.
I definitely think we can get a result here. Time to gamble with Johnson on the right, Bergvall 6 and Maddison, Kulusevski central

Studs up shocking foul on the ankle full force no control.
If we don't address the lack of passing options that Spence has when he receives the ball from the defence in the second half we wont get anywhere. We have nobody showing for him in midfield and he can't play it up the line effectively due to his left foot being weak. They trapped him like 10 times that half alone.
There is a standard however bad it gets, a manager must uphold. That was embarrassing.
