How many points did we really expect from Spurs, Chelsea and MU? We're probably no worse off than we expected at this point. The plus point is that we are competing at this level. We need a strong striker and a bit more luck and we might well be OK.
I expected 4 points so right on schedule
Valid.
When we cut open their defence before halftime I was dreaming of at least a point, that ended shortly after with the red card.

well thats one more than me, but on paper the chelsea game was the easiest. what we really need is for bruno to pick up a yellow in the big game tomorrow as i believe it will be his 5th and a suspension against us. everything good goes through him at the moment for united

we were looking good wernt we. really growing into the game
Nope, not having it. We could have won that damned game before the Red Card. That game was shaping up to be an easy draw and maybe Fulham nicking a win. We missed a big opportunity today with a self-inflicted wound. :031:
And now we have lost Robinson for 3 games and Reid for 1, real confidence builders for the next few games, NOT!!!

Yes we were Ben, but after the WBA and Brighton wins I felt as though we wouldn't capitalise and we didn't! We certainly have a team that plays attractive football with little end result but still certainly good enough to be around mid table in the league, but we aren't and we won't be which is a shame! Far better performances than 2 years ago in the PL and when we go down this season and come back in the next season, maybe 3rd time lucky to stay up!

luckily we have the squad. Bryan slots in to left back and there are many options for Reid. Personally I'd put ak up top and put cav right or even kebano.
Agree with Ben kamara up front with frighten Mcguire and co and hopefully they get a few yellows too.
Do you think he will play kongolo cb and move aina to left wing back

possibly. But for me it has to be Bryan as he will offer more going forwards.

Yes - but who will he cross the ball to ?
The invisible man?
I went for 1. We've got that so anything from Manure would be a bonus as far as I am concerned.
Before Spurs I thought we could get three. All of them from today's game.
If we had all eleven on the pitch for the full 90, I still believe we would have won them.

Who is Kamara frightening? He's scored 11 goals since the start of 18-19 season (3 in the Cup and 1 in his loan spell in Turkey included in the 11).
The fact people are suggesting Kamara to start just points to the dearth of options that we have on our books.
