I don't think it's ALL gone wrong. Our finishing has let us down.
Newcastle and Man United were some of the best games we've played at this level. Everton were just too good for us. We dominated Palace and but lacked a cutting edge and last night was just a bit... off.
I think the benefits of appealing for fouls are far greater since the introduction of VAR. And we're not very good at it IMO.
Did you see United when Maupay handballed it? They went mental.
Did you see us when Maguire pulled Dunk over before their goal?. Nothing at all. Not a peep. Dunky was...
Frustrating that we stopped the better team scoring from open play and managed to nick a goal. Yet we insist on shooting ourselves in the foot. Terrible defending from set pieces AGAIN.
In my experience it's always people who use the word "snowflake" who seem the most bothered... almost offended even... by things which have absolutely nothing to do with them.
Quite funny that innit.
Member how EVERY season people judge a team by their performances in the Carabao Cup and how every season they have no bearing at all on the league?
I member.
