GodlyOtsemobor 2,292 Posted October 23, 2021 4 minutes ago, Highland Canary said: Goes fundamentally to the business model which is simply incompatible with a PL set up. If there’s disquiet I would suggest that it’s additional investment that is needed and a culture/ambition of wanting to compete in tier one. My argument is we've NEVER had money when we go up yet we show more fight then we do now. Lamberts premier league team was full of league one players and stayed up. Worthys team was full of championship players and we gave ourself a chance going into Fulham. Even Hughton's team gave more than they are right now. I refuse to believe lack of funds is the be all and end off if everyone is just fighting that extra 10% more than every other team. And yes the counter argument is the prem is now alot harder then back then also but I'd argue so is the championship 🤷♂️ Buck has to fall with the decision makers of the match day teams first and foremost... then the owners, but unfortunately we all know she's going nowhere.

Especially after Brentford gave them a proper go last week. Then along come Norwich to give Chelsea the easiest game they will ever have at this level. Its all so predictable though, thats what really hurts. You just KNEW we'd be lambs to the slaughter today, its almost like they've accepted defeat before a ball has been kicked. Where is the basic fight and spirit you need when you're scrapping for survival? We were always likely to lose and lose well today, but at least show some HEART ffs 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 5,937 Posted October 23, 2021 Crikey, talk about the hope that kills you. I'll maintain progress is never linear, but the battling performances of the last two matches aren't showing here at all. Sure, Chelsea are moving the ball very well indeed and they deserve credit for clocking three goals up with academy graduates, but we're a yard behind in thought, action, and response. Two half-time subs speak volumes though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,317 Posted October 23, 2021 Teams with far worse players than we have are capable of playing and defending so much better than this. Something is fundamentally wrong. I know we are lacking confidence but it doesn’t excuse us making it so easy. Webber’s recruitment defensively sub standard again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cantiaci Canary 556 Posted October 23, 2021 Shocking to set up so negatively that we all know that 0.0 is the only positive result possible BUT come in 3-0 down at HALF TIME! I fear that Farke's truly lost it. He's chopped and changed already this season and we're still so far off it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

komakino 272 Posted October 23, 2021 I said 4-0, but it looks at though it may be more... If Farke goes, the result would have been worth it. However, our hapless owners won't hear of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can see a couple more being invented. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We didn't need one. We were going to dominate the ball every game by playing lots of slow, languid low passes to feet and the opposition wern't going to do any off the ball work against us. It wasn't supposed to be this way, how could they have possibly seen this coming? It's not like they haven't had a season already to see this or anything.

Indy 3,297 Posted October 23, 2021 It’s scary how confused our wingbacks look, not used to playing with three at the back. Aarons is far better than he looks today, what has this season done to our players confidence? Surely Webber needs to come out and either commit to or club long term of **** off before January as we need to have someone who’s going to look for alternative players with a long term plan. Raschica has made a change in our energy level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sideshow Tim 110 Posted October 23, 2021 Joe Cole insinuated at half time that we are playing like Farke has lost the dressing room. I feel its now time up for him, especially if we lose this 6 or 7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
