adrian lord Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 (edited) A lesson from this and other games this season is that the Premier League is almost like a different sport. Like when a population of a species becomes isolated and begins to evolve independently and in a different direction, to the point of being on the cusp of a totally new species.

I don't see how he is doing badly. I'd have expected 20 points by now. As it stands, we have 18. That's very slightly less than I thought. It could be MUCH worse. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saints-til-i-die Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 I hope nobody complaining went to the fans forum as apparently everyone went away happy from that. He was so impressive allegedly. As I said at the time, it’s just words. I went away desperately hoping but very skeptical because he says a lot but never follows it up on the pitch. Some people are so easily persuaded by words. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re slightly edging the game with slicker passing, better pressing and more pace so I’m expecting them to capitalise in the second half. Watch Russ make the inevitable three subs at around 60 minutes which will help them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greedyfly Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 8 minutes ago, Bad Wolf said: I can understand why people aren't happy, sure. What I can't understand is why they're suicidal. It's been average IMO. Thing is, if we win, it'll have "papered over the cracks" or something. You say that as if isn't exactly the thing it will do If you think being as good as Hull is our ceiling then we're really in for mid-table obscurity. The performance from the few minutes I could stand, is the same insipid performance we've put out since maybe game 3 and one half against Leeds aside. At least until this point he could be given the benefit of the doubt. We're 12 games in and going backwards if anything. I think most of doubt has gone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 Stu's touch just a bit heavy runnign onto that in the middle... Hull sort of on the break. We have improved in that respsect. We now have as many back as they have forward, which is an improvement of 1 person running back to cover every attacker. But Hull's direct running into space looks for likely than our hitting form outside the box against a set defence. That's somethign that hasn;t changed, sadly.
