Last weekend, I was hoping to get at least one point from these games. I was expecting it to come from Brentford, but there you go. Plenty of effort today, and losing both CBS so early was a blow. Walcott was my MOTM. At last, a performance from him rather than the plodding going through the motions. I hope to see one or two more as his swan song.
They seemed to concentrate moving the ball from deep left to the right wing a lot. Perraud was exposed quite badly by lack of support by Elyounousi, though he did manage to cover if they attacked down our left flank rather than cross field.
No need to be sad and peed off tonight. |  |

Selles has won 2, drawn 2 and lost 2 of his games in charge.
I can't argue with that. We're not cut adrift - which is the important factor. |  |

The same frailties are there - particularly in front of goal - but we are playing as a team, and we’re improving.
It‘s going to be stop start for rest of the season but all 9 teams on 27 points or less are in the same boat. 6 of them are staying up. 10 games to go and all still to play for. |  |

It felt like todays game was all our season and last wrapped into one game. Some good stuff, some not so good stuff, missed chances, poor defending at times, then some good goals and some good individual performances and some fight. Still a real mountain to climb and we have played a game more than most but we aren't yet cut adrift.
I am still bewildered why some players are not being picked or automatic starters but there are some good signs even if we do go down. An entertaining game and for once value for money, so cannot complain about that. Pity other results did not go our way more. | | | |

watching the highlights and even our need for goals and wins its unfathomable that sulemana doesn't start along with Alcarez | | | |

They started mid-week and we didn‘t score.
Today they cane on and did well with fresh legs against tired ones.
I don’t get the constant sniping at Selles‘ team selections. They’re better than Ralph’s and Jones‘ and he’s getting results. I think he’s earned a little latitude if we can’t always fully understand them. | |

Just watched the extended sky highlights, looks like sulemana was excellent when he came on and Theo put a proper shift in, back to having a bit of hope |  |

The comeback gives us a slither of hope, but most of the teams above us have a game in hand. We really need to beat West Ham away in our next game. Not convinced we will. We always do terribly there and they need to win too. Then we have Man City, whilst the others have winnable games that weekend. We could be cut adrift by then. Don't feel confident but 10 games to go. There is hope we will fight to the end. | |

Not a bad return under normal circumstances. But I fear we will need to do better to stay up by our own efforts as that level of return will give us 39 points. As you say though, we are not cut adrift, and hopefully, some others will not do that well. | |

I was hoping to get 6 points from these two games.
‘No need to be sad or peed off’
Have you seen the league table?
Going down with a whimper.
Celebrating 1 point from 2 home games.
Great. |  |

Just being pragmatic. Unrealistic aspirations is the bane of our world. Like “I want to be a celebrity,” or the app’d FB pictures that are even used by the media as representative of dead young women. Nothing wrong in wild dreams, but mostly, don’t expect them to come true or be disappointed if they don’t.
My take on our chances will not affect one jot the results on the pitch, as has been proven over the past couple of seasons. | |

A very frustrating season.
We had 4 games where we got nothing, and should have had at least 6 (if not all 12) against, Leeds, Forest, Wolves and Brentford.
6 points from these games, which should not have been a big ask would have us 12th in the division as things stand today. | | | |

You're right, but still felt that it was 2 points dropped despite the celebrations as if we'd won the league!
Could have done with Everton and Leeds losing though |  | | |

As you suggest, I'm not sure a point was enough, yesterday. Yes, we have ten games left so we can do it, but a look at the fixtures tells me that some of the other teams will get some results in next few set of fixtures. I'm not sure we will get a win away to West Ham, then we play Man City. We could be 4 or 5 points behind by then. Bournemouth are home to Fulham, Palace play Leicester, Forest play Wolves in the next round of fixtures. All ifs and buts but we need to beat West Ham don't we, with Man City after that? Ofcourse it depends on other results, but it leaves us having to beat Palace and Bournemouth at home to catch them up. [Post edited 19 Mar 2023 14:15]
