So the least number of clean sheets in the League. Bloody hell.

Compounded by the fact that we supposedly have the No 1 goalkeeper in the world!

His post-match interview, fucking hell.

"Can you identify what's not quite right at the moment for your team?"

"The opponent, Chelsea."

1 clean sheet all season, ranked bottom of the league . Embarrassing and clear evidence of how poor the likes of Torres and Carlos are at actually defending

Worried that our problems can't be fixed this season.

I'm a fan of Torres, I do think some of his poor form is more down to the midfield giving him about as much protection as a papier maché condom, but Mings should start against Brentford. We won't be sorry to have his and Kamara's physicality against that lot.

No
I’m not worried
Maybe I should be but I’m not

Whats your expectations for the season? If its midtable then you have every right not be worried. But if its  champions league then i cant see how anyone cannot be. We cant defend, we cant score and just look weak in every area of the pitch.

Cant think of anything on our play thats been a improvement of last year

We can still finish 6th or 7th this season imo. We win on Wednesday and we'll probably be above all of Spurs, Newcastle and Man. United again so these are the teams more on our level than Chelsea really as things stand.

We can but only way i see it happening is of we strengthen in  janauary.

I would recall enzo as we need another DM. Onanas fitness record is not the best and kamara needs help after long term injury.

We need to get a replacement for diabs ans i would seriously try get luiz back on loan. Its a absolute  must for me if he is available

4-4 fucking 2 would have been just as apt.

People keep on at Torres and Carlos for being poor. Konsa was equally bad if not worse than Torres. Ball watching for the 1st goal. Comical defending second half from a high ball should have resulted in another Chelsea goal. I saw no evidence today to suggest his presence is going to make the difference at all. The whole defensive shape seems wrong and fragile who ever plays.

It’s the midfield, I keep saying it but it’s true. You can swap in any centre half and they’d be exposed.

I don't want him to go out and bury the players like Gerrard did though.

The shape is wronf the way we play is wrong, constantly losing possession . That's on the manager
