We just need a wee bit of luck, lost to a penalty and a deflected shot today, 1” from a goal last week, it will come. Just compare Liverpool’s luck - two wins this week both due to goalkeeping mistakes. Potter’s team will come good

We rod our luck massively at various stages of the game. Another day that could have been a 6-0. Don't kid yourself.

I don't disagree with that Spence. All I said was that defensively , they hung in there.

Some your observations have "Merritt" but because you don't give credit for the good things the team do. A lot of people are jumping on you on here for some of the valid arguments you put forward.

Seriously :lol:

24 shots for Chelsea and 10 on target. They missed sitters


I feel like banging my head against the wall with some posters on here.

Mane should’ve put them 2 or 3 up today, missing several golden opportunities handed to him on a plate. The United keeper also made an outstanding one on one save.

[MENTION=30242]spence[/MENTION] give it a break. Wait until 10 games are up and then see where we are at. Even then, you'll need to look at the style of football and what is being built for the future. This is still a long term plan and TB and PB will have made an appointment that is right for the club.

I anticipate us finishing in 15th this season, and one hopes being ready to push on next season. We are in a transition phase.

By the time we play Spurs it will be October

To date we have beaten the bottom side of the league who haven't won yet and a league 1 side in a cup.

It's the way we defend and go about our business that frightens me greatly. It worried me back in August.

The only highlights for me are the kids. Even Potter had no choice to start them due to injuries, I like what i see but we are a struggling team and using kids this early in the season is another concern.

The signs are not all bad.

It will be OK. It just needs a bit more time.

Damn, I logged into start a thread like this and have been beaten to it.

We are going down.

Crab i wanted to start it a few weeks ago i honestly did. I held back simply because it went massively against the grain on here. Alarm bells rang for me in August.

Sometimes managers get the boot after just a few games . I felt Potter should have been one of those casualties.


He doesn't convince me at all. I'm embarrassed by the way we defend.

In a way this is continuum of the CH can’t buy a win form (except very rarely; Hudd at home, Watford away). Post Spurs, presumably another no-win, the habit must be broken, to give confidence.

We need Trossard back though imho.
