Subscriber Dan+ Posted November 1 Subscriber Share Posted November 1 Think we're going to hand them their first win and we'll be right back in the shit. I notice the bottom six are all playing each other. Three away wins would create a pretty big gap for the bottom teams standards. If we do win, we are at worst 7 points clear of 18th. That feels pretty big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That feels pretty big. I feel like how I did before the Southampton game. Expecting a loss, anything less is a bonus. A win is superb in any circumstance and however it comes about. We're definitely conceding. Can tell anyone that much for free . Cooper has absolutely no idea how to stop the flurry of shots/goals that we're met with any game. Wednesday was an absolute joke. Shot attempts on our goal in the last 7 games below: Man Utd - 25 Forest - 20 Southampton - 14 Bournemouth - 17 Arsenal - 36 Everton - 16 Palace - 20 So feeble and weak and it's no wonder we concede almost every single game. We score every game but I'd rather have some defensive solidity within us and not have to hope we score 2 goals just to have a chance of winning a game. Interestingly as well both ourselves and Ipswich are the worst for Expected Goals (10.57 for us; 9.76 for Ipswich) and Expected Goals Against (23.22 for us; 24.09 for Ipswich). So either expect a lot of goals tomorrow (and more in favour of Ipswich) and potentially a score draw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So either expect a lot of goals tomorrow (and more in favour of Ipswich) and potentially a score draw. Terrible stats. We play defensively yet have no idea how to actually keep chances or goals out. Ipswich's shots line tomorrow is about 14 according to bookies which is a pretty bad indictment of us and what is expected. I think Forest and how they played last week is what he's aiming for but we're miles off being able to execute it and his lobsided full back system is just making us piss easy to play through. As poor as Justin looks I do wonder if he's being hung out to dry a bit. The amount we've scored is an anomaly as well. I don't get how we keep scoring as many as we do. I mean it's not the worst thing, but I just don't think it's particularly sustainable playing like this. Ipswich will smell blood tomorrow. I expect plenty of goals. I wouldn't be shocked by a 4-3. Ipswich are pretty awful at the back themselves. I've been surprised how poor they've looked this season, I expected a bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Arsenal lost today, while both Man City and Liverpool are also losing right now by a goal to nil. It doesn't seem like a good day for the title favourites. I am slightly surprised by Liverpool losing though, as they are the only side, out of them, Arsenal and Man City that are playing at home today. I know Brighton are a tough side, but Liverpool have the superior players and with them playing at home, you'd definitely think that Liverpool would win or at least draw.

Brighton have been the better side so far to be honest. Liverpool need to get their act together. There's plenty of time yet in this match, but they have to show more improvement in the 2nd half. A win today for Liverpool would be a huge boost for them in the league table standings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 2 Subscriber Share Posted November 2 Our match has been shite. Southampton knocking the ball around loads in their and the middle third whilst not knowing how to attack. Us sitting off but not looking decisive when we launch a counter attack.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 2 Subscriber Share Posted November 2 Beto equaliser ruled out for offside by about 0.5mm. Honestly the amount of marginal shite that has just fallen for Southampton here is ludicrous. All to scrape a 1-0 home win against one of the worst sides in the league.
