But that’s my point, if he wins it where does he head it and who to? His judgement to balls up to him and challenging centre halves is still one of the weaker parts of his game but because he’s 6ft 4 fans think that should be his game. He should be better at it but just playing to his strengths...

Won 4/5 headers in the first half at Villa, guess what happened? No one was running in behind even though this was something they had clearly worked on and Villa regained the ball really easy. Maybe we should just stop launching it at him with no one even close to him. It was the same last...

Yeah he’s the panto villain at the moment. A fair few fans didn’t warm to him last season anyway(look at the criticism when he had scored 9), add the Newcastle transfer saga in and the arm waving trying to get the crowd going and it all leads to over the top criticism. We’re all guilty of that...

That’s a fair thought but we can’t just let them run us into the ground. There isn’t anyone to buy us but by telling them we want them gone it’s showing how much they have failed. We need and want a dialogue with them but don’t think they have the minerals for it. Like Punts just said, they...

Embarrassing from top to bottom. Can’t see how fans are going to keep turning up without being part of some sort of protest after that. We have to try to make some kind of difference and it can only have more impact if more fans are on board. That second half reminded me of the Chelsea one...

I’m not sure what the right thing to do is but something does need to be done to show what we’re all feeling. I’ve not missed a game home or away for a long time but i won’t be in my seat for the first 15 minutes Monday and hope as many people as possible do so as long as we can do it safely...

He really wasn’t. He’s always had this hesitation in his game to drive forward but there’s basically nothing forward now and it’s slow and safe and when there’s a hint of adventure the execution is way off. He’s also just so easy to bypass for other teams at the moment because he is here and...

Obviously I’ve simplified it and said it was partly hyperbole but that’s basically what your average fan sees. Running, closing down, tackles, fouls. He was doing it with purpose 18 months ago and a bit of nouse but he’s not now.

It’s with the fanbase imo that he’s living off it, he’s still in the team because we have no one else or he wouldn’t have been back in after the Fulham game. He gave up Sunday after the challenge on him before the Villa goal and despite him probably being asked to do things he’s not great at he...

It’s not ridiculous, he’s been awful all season and was arguably the worst player on the pitch again yesterday relative to his ability. Yes he’s struggling for confidence but he’s regularly giving away 10 yard passes and just being bypassed when we don’t have the ball. I know Lycan criticised...

Everything about us right now is depressing and embarrassing. Players have no belief and no fight and neither do the fans. Someone with more reach and influence than us has to get some sort of protest going very soon. We’re already down but think if we’re going to get anything from games it...

This is the biggest with the squad. Jeff thought he had 2 people in Vitor and Teti that could create a squad who would comfortably stay up. But with no creativity or ball carrying ability either side of them they’re practically wasted. Andre showed yesterday he can play passes through the lines...

Yes he has. Nice bloke to be fair but personally don’t think he’s good enough for the role he’s had or this one.

It doesn’t. That was just a weak arm from him. Most goalkeepers will now go with that top arm as it enables them more reach.

Well you don’t have to but it’s true. They’re human beings and no matter what your job, how much money you have, how idolised you are you can still be demoralised by what is going on around you. It’s fucking annoying as a fan when you can see players don’t care as much as we want them to but...
