I’m not saying he’s not been backed - but he’s massively over delivered to date.
"Massively" is possibly overstating it.

We've spent a year feeling he was an upgrade on Potter but have stuttered in the league since before Christmas.

I don't know - it's still a joy to watch when it goes well, but we still have games where we contrive to drop points despite the opposition being average and when teams play well, we often get spanked.

We can put today down to a dreadful performance, for whatever reason/s. Shit happens, and it will happen again, before the end of the season. The time to worry is if it becomes a habit, and I truly don't think it will be. Not saying that I'm correct, but let's keep it in perspective, at least for now.
Or, just carry on screaming. ( Great film, by the way.) :)

Bad day at the office. It happens. Everyone was poor but Luton were very good. Let’s get it out the way and use it as a kick up the arse to pull our socks up. Starting Saturday!
Luton were superb. If we'd played like that (as we have done a lot.) people would be pissing their pants.

We're tired, in every respect . . . We got properly beaten . . . And people are pissing their pants.

Hang on, there's a theme here . . . . Maybe the majority want Beige ball 1-1 . .

My concern is we're not a team. Those that made last season are missing, only 2 sold, but injuries and form are taking a massive toll.
Agree. We’ve got to be realistic. Players who should be spending months or years getting match minutes and now regular starters.

It’s caught up with us in one go tonight.

Who is Toady? or is it, whose Toady?

Edit: i see your sly edit in there.

Well done Luton very well deserved victory 4-0 makes a big dent in our goal difference, everyone of the Brighton players had an absolute mare of a game which must be a huge confidence boost for our friends up the road.
on a positive note I hope we got all our mistakes out of the system tonight what An awful performance I truly cannot pick any Brighton player who had a good game

We have an absolute ton of injuries but you can’t buy your way out of that. Bloom has backed RDZ, João Pedro, Fati, Igor etc aren’t nothing.

I also think it’s interesting that we go on about Bloom etc not buying a CDM but when RdZ had his choice he chose to buy Dahoud. Maybe we’ve bought what RDZ wants us to buy? And maybe he’s seeing the fruits of that now?
I don't know the details, but I bet there's a proper chin wag tomorrow 😬

Tony will be as nice as pie . . . . . Sabato vinciamo o moriamo

When we are on song, we can play the football of the Gods.

When we aren't, we can be dismantled. Played through.

This is where we are. RDZ football is high risk and high reward.
But the football of the Gods has generally been lacking all season. We’re way off the levels of last season. The thrashing today followed two dreadfully boring 0.0 draws in the league. No goals in 3 games now. There are real warning signs.

As bad as it was this is probably pretty similar to how Liverpool felt last season after we battered them at The Amex. Let's see what happens Saturday before completely throwing toys out the pram.
