Not taking it away from Bournemouth but just shows how bad we are and how much we are struggling I fear for tomorrow with Everton finding abit of form and us not really having many good days at there ground.
Think they must do something tomorrow or the fans may express there feelings in not the best way,

Can’t blame the fans. Most of normal blokes earn normal wages, travelling away up north on week days and Sunday is hard enough aswe all know. But when the players don’t show any passion belief or even try is disgusting.
Is some thing wrong in the back ground if like to know, is it really just a cycle with everyone getting use to each other, is it poch and his team, or do the players not believe in him.

Nib, comparing results is not a science and some would say it’s a foolish game.

We outplayed the gooners and City and smashed the spuds. So, maybe we should be in the top five.

Your point about fans reaction to a negative result tomorrow is a good one. I will be pleasantly surprised if we get anything from the game but it is away from home and they are our best and most loyal fans but if don’t turn up I expect the odd boo. The real test will come against Sheffield when a result is an absolute must followed by the Newcastle game, that’s a game that we must win as well.

Obviously comparing results is not science but the league table is fact. Man U are very poor but still 8 points above us. No we shouldn’t be in the top five; we deserve to be where we are.

Thing is we have spent millions upon millions we should be doing better, I wanted poch as a manager but I did read a while back that he’s very soft he let's the players make the atmosphere and there isn’t any real management of the players in respect to what they do or how they behaive.

Nib, the alternativeis to do it ALL again or make SMALLER changes over time.

The question for the owners is, “are we seeing progress? ”

If I’m them, I’m looking at our performances against Spurs, Arsenal and City and saying YES to that question but I would also look at the whole game against Utd the second half against Newcastle and the second half against Brentford and say NO we are not making progress.

I wanted change, so I can’t complain. Maybe it was too much change but that will take time to assess.

didn't want Poch as our manager. That decision had nothing to do with him being ex spuds but more about him winning nothing in the Premiership and his teams lacking discipline in games. That last point showed me that his teams have a tendency to ignore his instructions. As soon as he was appointed he got my support and he will continue to have my support while I think the team is making general progress.

Nib as per poch, my little knowledge of his time at tge spurs made me didn't want at Chelsea. I still haven't changed my mind though but he's here now. Really I'm not sure I like the direction of the new owners for the club. I saw poch say that winning is still the focus of the club but almost everything is in contrast. The rebuild of this magnitude requires one with winning mentality in coaching like Jose did when roman first came. Trust me even with all odds I still think we should be better than this. We play with no heart and ambition. The team is without identity.

I don't believe football should be played in a particular way but tactically manipulate circumstances to winning games. We have suddenly become a team take pride in that we played well and not that we won. The so called transition will take many years with poch in my opinion. I know poch was chosen because they believed he will be good in bringing up the young players and epl experience. Just look at arsenal transition and check the speed they have raced to the top with little transfer budget compared to our extravaganza. We have many players who should never be here but expect magic. I. Not seeing any significant improvement and unfortunately I don't it will come soon. We are likely going finish outside top 10 for a consecutive season in the pretence of transition. We are going to hit the bottom before any improvement if major steps are not taken. It will require a coach with different mentality. Get a few proven and consistent players to mix these rookies.
