100%. Complete waste of money and some say we don’t spend money.,
The only person letting ENIC off is you for blaming the fans for having the audacity to enjoy watching their team instead of focusing your ire on ENIC themselves.
I hate this fan blaming shite.
Everton did us a solid tonight but we fucked that away.
I did expect NC to start to run out of steam as they weathered their own injury problems but I can't imagine them being leaky and shit two games in a row.
We'll only beat them with a proper performance; for which tonight was the rehearsal.
Yet some on here scorn at Bowen. Much better player alround pace and good technical ability , work rate and scores.
It just seems it's not difficult to score against us atm. Van der ven is big loss but some other players have to take responsibility. Teams break our press were easy to score against. Villa goals were easy. Dominating games but cant defend atm. Simple as that.
Which was what? .........To park the bus after 25 mins and our first goal?

Why no donley again?
Thought we created a lot of chances?
I like him. Really wants to do well & puts a good shift in. Good crosser too & can shoot.
Why was Gio taken off and BJ abd kulu left on? Could have pushed Gio further forward.
Exactly, we are heading in the right direction, that's clear to see. My man utd supporting mate just sent me a screenshot of the prem table saying: spurs and Newcastle clubs on the up, man utd in crisis...standards. Well I wouldn't swap what we've got going with Ange for what they have with ETH.
Yeah we've still got a long way to go but this is not like other false dawns that we've got carried away with before.
As I study this video of our offense in the final third, it just seems to me that we need to be more creative, e.g. more movement, overlaps, etc.
In terms of the overall narrative, we can't be unhappy with tonight. We are doing the things that most of us wanted. We are dominating the ball (75% tonight) playing front foot, pass/move football with some risk.
We didn't stop playing at 1-0, we kept pushing for another goal. That's what everyone wanted.
It can often be very difficult to break down a bus park - and West Ham have been doing this for 3-4 seasons now, they have it down - especially when your forward/creatives aren't great.
We are clearly seeing a completely new systematic approach. But until we add some better quality components (ie better players) to the system to better stack the risk/reward odds, we will be see the kind of set backs we've seen against West Ham and Villa.
That was just about as lopsided a bus park skanking as you will see. They created virtually nothing themselves. Both their goals had enormous ricochet luck (yes some iffy play by us as well but fuck me the luck involved was outrageous) that served up two unmissable chances and they even missed one of them only for it to bounce straight back to the cunt.
I get that we are really limited from the bench, it's fucking slim pickings (I really don't know why we bought Veliz either) but I really didn't see the logic of the first subs. He took off one the most likely people to create something - Lo Celso - (who'd also scored last two games) for Skipp? Pushed Son out wide, where he's never effective in bus park games.
This season was always going to be a learning process. I'm actually quite surprised at how quickly Ange has got us playing a clearly discernible style. If we can upgrade some more of the players, the system will work even better hopefully.

Too early to write off johnson and think he will do well. I'd sell richarlison though.
Why does he never get subbed?
Curious day for subs tbh. Ange's changes against City were a masterstroke. Taking Gio off here for Skipp made little sense to me. Needed earlier changes to the front line.
