This season in the PL 13 goals conceded in the first 11 games
PS Doucoure got injured in the 13th league game but we had shipped 3 goals against Everton in the 12th league game.

the club showed loyalty to Benteke and Luka Milivojevic when both were clearly holding us back. i suspect we are not sufficiently ruthless with mediocre players. the statistics for who is on the pitch , when we f...ck up are all there to see. Some of our midfielders & defenders are clearly not up to the job. in my opinion, there is much vitriol thrown at Roy, and not enough thrown at the fellas on the pitch. We seem to be very adept at conceding an early goal. Edited by PalazioVecchio (01 Feb 2024 3.24pm)

That's two home league games in a row where we've conceded in the first 2 minutes to add to the fact that we conceded the first goal last calendar year more times than any other PL team. Yes, the players are the ones on the pitch but it's the manager who gives them their instructions. So either they're not listening or he's not giving the right instructions.

Edited by PalazioVecchio (31 Jan 2024 8.22pm) What a totally crass remark, not the 1st time you post something thats crass, give ya head a wobble boy.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Cannon and Gilbert for me - neither got the the International recognition they deserved..!! They also had two very good fullbacks in King Ken and Doris..!! What would they be worth in todays mad market..!! Gilly along with Murphy were personal faves of mine in the heralded team of the 80’s under Tel..!! COYP It was said at the time Billy Gilbert was the best English centre back around at the time not to get an England cap

Anyway our key defensive lynch pin is out injured, Doucoure, its all gone tits up without him.
