Trouser pressers. Always flatter to deceive with their pathetic crease.

Why? Sulemana is clearly faster than Tella. Vision and ball mastery is slightly more subjective but arguably true. If all you’re concerned about is outcomes then Le Tissier’s total number of England caps makes Eric Dier a better player than him.

I’ll take a boring 2-1 win

As I said, I’m confident we’ll be above Ipswich at the end of the season, when it really matters.

Except maybe pace, vision and ball mastery.

And this season Ipswich have drawn with Rotherham and Huddersfield. I guess the Ipswich manager is hailed a genius by some on here because they played us when we were having our month long brain fart in September. I'm confident we'll finish above Ipswich, less confident that we'll be us in a top 2 position but hopeful.

What did RM say to Sulemana? How do you know you disagree with something when you don't know what was said?

I’ve not seen the post match interview. Did he name players or speak about them as a group?

What a load of pony

IIRC he has openly blamed himself for the September mess, saying he pushed team before they were ready, that was on him.

Not sure how Huddersfield can have so many behind the ball and not be touch tight on AA for our beautiful goal, but I’ll take it. COYS!!

Think we have an agreement on THB if we’re promoted.

Many wet their bed far too early and it's easy to see why given the previous 24 months of abject performances and recruitment, both on and off the field. Some of the stuff that was written on here went way too far but that goes on in many pubs, social feeds and in the stands. People have opinions and some form them very quickly not always knowing the full picture or being particularly objective or accurate. We've still got a long way to go, the job is far from done. I fully expect us to have another rocky patch or 2 in this season but having come through "Black September" I hope the support sticks behind the team when times get a bit rough or tense.

There comes a time when you just need to put the shovel down and walk away.

Due to the lack of emoji I assume you're not taking the piss.

Were you expecting an end to end, basketball style game? West Brom are arguably the best organised defence in the Championship and are potent on the break, it was always going to be a cagey game. Your aggression is befuddling.

I doubt it

MORE points than Ipswich and Leicester, resources equals points

…at the end of the season. Not during a shit spell in September.

Happy to join the dots for you, if it helps. The switch to past tense was to question whether the club has failed in its stated ambition. Stated ambition, is ridiculous to hold on to anyway. Many clubs in this league, before the season started would have stated a similar ambition for many many reasons.

I remember the Nathan Jones poll but don’t recall a poll on Russell Martin.

Who won the league?

Who signed De Gea in the end?

Is English your first language?

Haha you can spare me the Ted Lasso impression 😂
