It's quite interesting mind watching the team after a few weeks away as you see it with fresher eyes and I was starting with a relatively clean slate in what I was expecting.
I'm not joking when I say that I think Leighton James, after a few, with Jimmy behind him, would do a better job than Montero, who is frankly, taking the p*ss, and Taylor who is lacking any semblance of ability. And I don't mean in their day, I mean now. Our left side must be the worst in certainly the top two divisions if not three.
I'm as unhappy about Bradley as anyone, but there isn't a manager alive or dead who could get this squad looking anything other than relegation fodder. |  | |  |

Montero ! I thought the guy must be injured for him not to chase down the balls but it looks like he threw the toys out of the pram and gave up!!! Where's the steel in our side...most of it is contained within two thirty something's that are in the twilight of their careers.
HJ lies at the route of our downfall in the extremely poor transfer dealings and should hang his head in shame whilst we peer into the abyss ! |  | | |

Look on the bright side, all other results tonight were good for us.
Maybe, just maybe, there will be 3 teams sh1tier than us. |  |

Yeah, like that's gonna happen like! As you said earlier in the thread, we are so down! |
I'm beginning to have to agree with you mate, but it will be all kicking and screaming along the way for me. |  | | |

And if Bradley takes no blame as sonme seem to be arguing, why have a manager at all? He/the coaching team are simply not getting the best out of these players. But even if they did I still think we'd be in the shit. Too many flakes in the team with a catastrophic error in them, including Fabianski. Sigurdsson was a load of old arse too, even when we were playing well.
Clasey was right in his throw away remark earlier, the manager and too many of the players are simply not up to scratch. I'd add coaches , scout, agent sources and Chairman. Lower league, and now the chickens are coming home to roost.
Anyway, who knows, anything can happen. I don't think it will. Just about down and out. Goal difference almost always tells you who will be relegated. Ours is laughable. |
Oh, Clasey was right now was he! But when i suggested the exact same thing before the game had even kicked off, you called me a pussy and told me too man up! Rightio then! All hail fvckin Clasey is it, who actually up arrowed your post! Never mind poor old morningstar who could also see it coming all through the game! This is all about the POTY awards inniit!

Firstly, there's actually two teams below us, unbelievable as it may seem we can scrape through this. Looking like three from the current bottom five I reckons.
Secondly, just wondering if given some training and practice we should try three at the back especially away from home. Amat, Mawson, FF/VDH. Regardless of what most of you guys think of FF that looks highest quality we have at the back. Go Wayne left. And maybe (tin hat) Nathan on the right as wing backs. Maybe that is Plan C but worth a try against some teams? Lovely if we had some different strategies for different teams. Horses for courses type thing.

the balls into the box were of such high quality they took the keeper out of the equation |
I'll give you the 2nd.
The 1st he could have done better...
The 3rd (literally the same ball from the same player, aimed at the same target, 2 mins after the 2nd goal) he should have anticipated and came and punched IMO. |  |

At least if Fab had come to punch and missed, there was the chance of him punching Taylor. So result either way really. | | | |

Didn't particularly see it going much different tonight if I'm honest.. When a team usually accustom to playing 4 centre backs as a back four, a team averaging over 6ft with Tony Pulis at the helm away from home usually spells trouble for us.. even back in our best prem days.
I will say though, didn't see the 'stunning quality' of those crosses people are going on about. The freekick yes, but the others.. 2 Lofted balls to the back stick. Should be defending those much better. Not sure I've seen Amat win an aerial duel all season mind. |  | | |

Nyom was very good tonight.
A proper hard b'stard, as is Olsson.
Wish we had a bit of that at the back. | |

I reckon he'd already panelled Taylor in the changing room pre-game...at least Taylor played like he'd recently been knocked unconscious. | |

Funny thing is Nyom wouldn't have played if Dawson had been available, he was excellent fair play he had Montero in his pocket Montero knew it and lost interest pathetic, how Olsson gets away with holding in the box I don't know, they were lucky that they didn't concede two own goals though one the first half when the ball just went wide and at 3-1 when the reaction from Foster saved the other |  |

Can't argue with any of that.
You make your own luck though. As a team we are too nice.
The likes of Nyom and Olsson will do ANYTHING to win.
Not sure our lot have got that in them. | |

The first two goals looked like balls in between two defenders focused on nothing substantive in terms of stoppage; come to think of it (and having seen the footage again), the 3rd was much the same.
Problem is: Boro may well work it in to their strategy for Saturday.
Ditto the rest, unless we learn to defend better.
Can't be giving teams free headers: not in this man's league. | | | |

Lets be a fair, West brom played like a bunch of cocks for the most part and we were the better side. Could have put a few away on another night.
Happy with our defence and central midfield. Mawson has has 2 good games and should benefit from a run in the side. His movement and passing was sublime but there are questions over the goals which detract from his wins.
Onwards and upwards, game could have easily gone our way. |  | | |

Yes, marking and actually challenging at set pieces wouldn't go amis, never mind three at the back!!! |  |
