5 pts from the first three is decent. We will always have a somewhat slow (and lowscoring) start to the season. I'm confident we will score more than 2 against Stoke. It takes some time till the EUROs and pre-season wears off.

Yep I think 5 points from the games we have had is better than good.
I can be the first to complain but we have done okay.
Got to be post of the day that.
Eriksen faded against West Brom at the back end of the season and hasn't recaptured any of his early promise. Why Poch can"t see this is beyond me, especially as he alleges to pick his starting eleven based on form?
The sensitive souls in here possibly can't see a thing wrong in his play but the rest of the team have been carrying him for a few games more than he should be getting as a starter.
I pray to God that Poch and Levy have something bigger to grasp at than Zaha or we will be fucked a plenty this season.
What happened to our support? Really. What have we done to deserve these instant gratification cunts? I really fucking hate them - they're embarrassing.

It's quite astonishing that the same people who say "no no, the squad is good" are the first people to melt when we play badly. It's almost like they're really fucking stupid.
I think it's more believing in Pochettino and then when a result doesn't go their way, the frustration and anger gets the better of them.
A point at home to Liverpool isn't a bad result. A lot of top teams will also fail to beat Liverpool at home this season, I mean rewind a few weeks back and Woolwich got 4 put passed them ffs.
Do you want more players in Joe?
The most stupid thing is, I guarantee this too, if Wanyama and Janssen were signed August 31st they would say great window, the obsession with shiny new things as opposed to polishing the existing ones is extraordinary.
They think someone walking in the door now "Hi my name is X" will have more effect than people Poch has worked with for years, especially when nobody really is selling quality anymore it would be tough to find someone who makes a genuine difference when we know our first 11
Did my post give you that impression?
Do you want more players in Joe?
Agreed a point at home ain't bad, and it's these games where the young players who today we think aren't so good turn out, in a few years, to be pretty decent
Have you seen me in the transfer thread begging for new players? I think Poch has lost the kids a little bit. They seem a bit sulky.
I agree, but I bet at least half of those 9 people who agreed with you have also said liverpool are crap & we will easily finish ahead of them etc.
We're getting relegated , aren't we ?
The start of a season is always going to be a bit iffy, unless you are lucky. Players can't and don't have full match fitness or, more critically, sharpness. One of our key players can't play until mid September. Picking up points is all that matters, and 5 from 3 is fine. For goodness sake, the two draws we've had are matches that are a respectable par for any team in the division. We're doing just fine. Have a little faith or fuck off with your armchair and support Bayern Munich. They won 6-0 this weekend. That might make you happy.
