Just a thought here on the game just gone.

Everyone moaned when we started Longstaff & Murphy.

We were in the game, Longstaff hitting the bar and us scoring our 2 goals whilst those two undesirables were on the field.

We bring on Gordon and Tonali & in the captains words "It was a mess".

I don't remember Tonali having a shot at goal. I don't remember Gordon creating a single chance for Isak or Wilson.

I was expecting massive improvements in both positions.

So I have to ask everyone here. What were you watching?

The manager chose the right team to compete, when he had to make change, bringing on the ?90 odd million in talent to change the game. They let him down.

You can argue about the defence.

I'd counter with we didn't sign a CB Tosin or Guehi in summer and we're paying for that time and again. Recruitment - Not the manager.

Sacking Howe is gonna cause more instability which is exactly what we don't want.

The players have to take responsibilty once again for a shocking 2nd half performance.

We were in that game until the substitutions.

Just my opinion but from what I'm watching the Manager is doing what he can with the tools at his disposal. Those above have let him down and those of the pitch are letting us the fans down.
