Tzol Machine 27 Posted December 11, 2021 In the last 5 games they got 8 points. Thats pretty solid. If you look in the standings only 5-6 teams did better or same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gordon Bennett 914 Posted December 11, 2021 We were behind them last season once or twice were we not? The comparison is only relevant at the end if this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My point was both teams had eight points from five, I was laughing because I couldn't work out what your point was.🤔 Ha, why do I get the feeling we're all going to spend a lot of time in December looking for things to chunter on about.

TeemuVanBasten 3,328 Posted December 18, 2021 (edited) Poor recruitment, Webber has blown the dosh and should do the decent thing and resign like McNally.(but without attempting to unresign the next morning after sobering up).

Christoph Stiepermann 1,261 Posted December 19, 2021 We're built to dominate lesser teams by dominating possession, Brentford and Watford are build to compete with equal and better teams by working hard and playing on the counter. We're trying to do change now that Smith is here, but it's not suited to the profile of player we have, too many small, slow players Plus the loss of Skipp and Buendua had been massive as others have said 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
