One season in Europe and you can almost smell the entitlement among a large section of our fanbase

Tony Bloom won’t be enjoying this, being in with the fans at his arch enemy’s club and the players getting out fought by Brentford.
A loss here and our top 8 ambitions are gone.
And now Fabian replaces Welbeck and the fans are shouting ‘ you don’t know what you’re doing’
Not a happy group.

Think Tony will sack at end of the season this is just shit
I wouldn't be surprised if we go back in for Kieran McKenna. He was who we really wanted in the summer and, if certain sources are to be believed, we thought we'd all but signed him until Ipswich made him one of the highest paid coaches in the PL. It wouldn't be a huge shock if we sounded him out again. Whether he's actually any good is another question entirely.

You look at the subs that have come on my first thought is that this squad is decent.

It’s not balanced but we have a good number of talented players yet seem to have no system or style. Surely a better manager could get a lot more out of this squad?

When did we become so easy to score against?

It hasn’t been the reason for all the goals against us today, but we returned a few weeks ago to a high line with everybody pushed up.

PL teams analyse their opposition, and correctly note that we’re not blessed with blistering pace in our back line, and are vulnerable to the counter.

Every f***ing week we persist with this high press, knowing who we have available in our back line. And each time we do, there’s another week where opponents know they only need one attacking player with pace, and they will get high quality opportunities against us.

So it has proven, week after week after week, and we keep doing the same thing.
