We’re done. I’m done.

Slow, ponderous, and a complete lack of sharpness in the final third. Just passing it side to side and backwards. We’re horrendous to watch at both ends.

What’s Gusto doing for that goal, btw? Why is he just jogging slowly and watching instead of helping double up with Trev?

That’s some of the most embarrassing defending you’ll ever see. Not only to even allow him to receive that ball but to then let him beat you. Awful. And then at the other end of the pitch none of our wide attackers can beat their fullback to save their lives.

Has Nkunku had a single touch in the Brighton half yet?

If we don’t see some sort of pulse from the team against Brighton again in a few days I may check out until the summer.

We get NOTHING from either wing no matter who is out there, nothing from whoever is playing up top, and when Palmer isn’t on it we have ZERO chance of creating anything. Combine that with catastrophic, completely out of nowhere defensive errors every match. It’s complete madness that we went from looking like one of the best teams in the league up until December where we were shredding teams and scoring for fun to this. With the exact same players who are all fit.

Maresca’s job has to be under threat for me. We’ve now looked like relegation level for over 2 months now. With a basically fully fit squad bar 1 or 2 injuries. For us to have all this talent and to look this woeful is completely inexcusable. Early horror mistake from their keeper aside we did NOTHING the entire rest of the way. Again, against a team that just lost 7-0.

This is a side that lost 7-0 just a few days ago to Forest. Not only do we not even look like coming close to scoring, we aren’t even testing their keeper or defense AT ALL. Embarrassing as hell.

Not one but TWO Brighton handballs there and no VAR to call them. But it’s no more than we deserve. Have come out sleepwalking yet again.

Yep. After such a promising start he looks super timid again like he was at United. He receives the ball well under pressure and is good at maintaining the ball but is either scared to take his man on or when he does he can’t get past anyone lately. And on the other win we have Neto who has actually looked dangerous lately but he’s putting all these great crosses into the box where nobody is ever home to get in the end of them. All of our attackers are just in woeful form all at the same time. It’s so awful to watch. We so badly needed some freshening up in the window and refused to do so.

Zero quality in the final third at all that half. We don’t look like coming close to scoring a goal through open play.

Unless Lavia returns this season and ends the PL campaign with a long run of games where he’s fit and performing well, I think Santos will rerun to the club and immediately replaces Romeo as that 3rd midfielder who starts together with Caicedo and Enzo. I’m not worried about the club cashing in on him at all.

Knew as soon as we saw him jump and land awkwardly on his knee against West Ham the other day that he was going to be injured again.

The exact scenario I repeatedly raised during the entire January window. What would happen if Jackson got injured. This injury doesn’t seem serious but it just exposes yet again that’s it’s crazy we didn’t sign anyone. With Guiu now out now too it makes the club look even dumber.
