So you judge success by being runners up or nearly men interesting
Not according to the great all knowing Zolta of SC the great shadydan he sees it differently, for him it was an exercise in generosity and good will by allowing the opposition to get something as well.Will we ever learn? Another incredibly frustrating performance where we threw away points.
Again I never said we have not improved from say 15 years ago but would you see real Madrid say oh we have improved because we got to the 5th round of the Copa del ray or would they cite countless trophies and 14 European cups as a mark of success you tell me.Now you're being daft.
We all want trophies, surely you must see what direction on and off the field we are going,
I could only dream we would be where we are as a club 15 years ago

he was at his best when he was running the channels and charging round pressing barely presses now let alone runs the channel to get the ball. Playing far too deep and gave us nothing as a striker yesterday to work with.I think we seem to have stopped trying to get the ball to Kane. That should be our focus. He's a fkin goal machine, one of the best and yet we never seem to give him the ball. He has to come deep looking for it.
The draw in itself, wasn't a bad result at all.after one draw were going backwards.

its constant performances which lack any quality. We were more than fortunate to be 2 upafter one draw were going backwards.

We spent 150 million on 2 midfielders and a defender to try and address those issues.This isn't about one match, but a really bad habit we have. The team's collective inability to shut up shop and protect a two goal lead is a worrying sign. We have not progressed in terms of game management. We are still a pretty soft touch.
Did we lose by several tonight? Can only assume we did !
Some on here need to dry their feckin eyes. 3rd in the league and a great point away in Greece. Get over yourselves.
The Newcastle players managed to run around and close us down for the whole 90 mins

We are just too slow in doing everything. We scored goals against Palace because we got the ball forward quickly. Every single goal was a result of that. I mean, the answer is in there for the management and players and its not even that difficult. Get the ball moved through the team at pace. Pass and move quickly and teams will open up. We have good enough players to execute that but we don't do it. Ive a feeling this is what Poch was driving at with his comments last night.
All very well poch making those comments but is he part of the problem.We are just too slow in doing everything. We scored goals against Palace because we got the ball forward quickly.

I am not sure it is that different - While they were camped in that final third, we were taking 5 passes to get to the halfway line. Is wasn't as if we were running all over the rest of the pitch to get away from our markers and to create space.in their own third though, not all over the pitch. Thats obviously a lot different

Two seasons ago, he was getting the ball on the edge of the box taking one touch and shooting into the corners of the goal - I can't remember the last time he scored from around the 18 yard line.
