well after an optimistic start to the window it seems it's going to end up like it always does, with glaring holes in the squad and it arguably weaker than the season before.

Do the mods still get together for curry nights? Bet the Bantz is off the scale.

Smallbone MOM for stoke yesterday, reports say he was excellent

From Mbappe, Neymar and Messi to Adam Armstrong, Tella and Redmond bet he'd bite our hand off.

They need to back him and give him a better squad. Their recruitment has been dreadful over the last 5 years or so, no strategy or direction, just signing players. They've spent 100s of millions on absolute crap or egos like Pogba. They need a complete rebuild from the bottom up bidding for Arnatovic is a joke. Ten Haag is a good manager but i fear he might go the way of all the others.

he cant have long left. it's not like they've all been narrow defeats either, a 6-0, a 4-0, a 3-0, 3 x 4-1s, so 6 hammerings in 14 games and we've conceded two or more in every game except for Arsenal and Leeds games. That's inexcusable form for a premier league club.

i think that tells the story of what most think of Stephens and Bednarek.

Haland is going to score a bucketload against us isn't he.

are we a better option for him than Brentford though?

I wonder if Les took his secret file of up coming managers with him when he cleared his desk?

Brentford played 3 at the back when Rasmussen was there didn’t they? Maybe it is a directive from above although I would find it surprising if he was being forced to play a way he didn’t believe in.

Dortmund supposedly also in for him so he won’t be coming here

Organised hard working team with two decent centre halves who know how to do the basics well. Amazing how simple it is really.

That would mean playing your best players in their best positions, which isn’t something our manager does

I always remember when Fergie retired a guy on TUI insisting the Man United job was an easy which anyone could do, even Alan Pardew would win the league with them.

Unbelievable that they didn’t give that. What’s the point of VAR if they’re not overturning blatant penalties

Absolutely no reason to feel optimistic for this one. Our terrible form of last season has continued with the same issues that we’ve had for years. Crap at defending, far too easy to score against, lack of heart and bottle in the team and weird tactics and leadership off it. Leeds will fancy this one. No shame in losing away to spurs but the manner of defeat was troubling. Need a win badly to give the team confidence and a lift, plus you’d think Leeds will be one of the teams around us come the end of the season but I can’t really see where one is coming from.

We’ve needed one since 2017, been a shambles at the back since then, still those in charge know better 🙄

It’s when not if IMO. I can’t see him staying now. Same old shit today. Same mistakes, same weird line up. Same conceding pathetic goals. No issue losing way to spurs but yet again it’s the same reasons why. So easy to score against regardless of the players. It’s piss poor. I was never quite sure if we were a good team playing badly or a bad team playing well under Ralph. The reality is in 3 years he’s had two 12 game streaks of good form, for the rest of the time we’ve been crap.

Fail to beat Leeds he needs to go

I was too but it’s the same old basic mistakes. Basic errors even a league two coach could fix, pathetic

Good to see our new support staff are having an influence 🤣

Agreed. Run out of patience now. Utter shit again. Same old issues same mistakes.

So other than doing the basics right we’ve been great, yes?
