I've been all for keeping Farke til now but there is so much wrong now that I wonder if a change would be the shock to the system we need to propel us out of what is feeling like a speeding snowball going downhill.

Yep, we were poor as well as them being good!

We've had some tough away games mind - Arsenal, Fulham and Brighton are all much better teams than us. Brighton made us look poor. Hopefully we'll be more competitive v Forest - have to be!

We've been better than this, have to credit Brighton, they are a very good team, much better than their current position suggests. Need to see a return to the effort and aggression we've seen against the likes of Everton, West Ham, Toon, Bournemouth etc this season. We'll need to be on it v Forest.

Yup, not many positives from yesterday's game! A couple of fine saves by Perri and some ok work by Okafor about all I can think of! We have to give credit to Brighton though, they are a more than decent team and they've already beaten City and Chelsea this season. Forest is a better level for us.

Cheers Huw. I think I agree with you there, we are much better than we showed yesterday and yes, there are at least three worse than us. I guess we have to accept that Brighton are a much better team than us too, their position in the table isn't representative at the moment. #MOT

We need to learn tho.

Yeah true - we did invite trouble in that last half hour tho. Maybe the illness in the camp played a part, and the conditions too.

Well I just had to ponder your Messi post for a few seconds so it wasn’t that obvious! 🤣🙃

No Piroe? He replaced Stach in 73rd min.

Hard to disagree with you on that. But, on reflection, I'm not sure Burnley are a bottom-3 side - had some really tough fixtures, tougher than ours, for example. We do need to change things tho, and we do need a result on Friday. Home game against a struggling side is a must - Nuno or no Nuno!

Sorry, only just seen this - but you could say exactly the same after today too!

Yep, little to moan about at the moment! Still scope to improve too, get those little details right, bit more game management at crucial times, get DCL really sharp, improve defence at corners, get DJ and Willy fit etc etc!

Yes, but for that own goal at Fulham we've had a fabulous start, rock solid, picking up points along the way - even Arsenal game we limited them to very few opportunities (it's just that they are so good they took them all!). To grab something next weekend would be phenomenal. 🤞
