Let's not overreact...

[Edwatch_Winston_Malone]

There are plenty more games to get it right...

[Brede Butter Pudding]

We haven't played a top 6 team away from home yet, and we've only played City at home... The teams we've lost to we should be trouncing.

This is seriously worrying, and I'm not usually one to overreact about one bad result.

Jol is worse than Sanchez though, is that an overreaction ?

[FC Silver Fox]

Yeh but 6 points from 5 games at home, 1 point from 4 away.  Trend this to the end of the season and we'll get 28 points.
Even if you trend our 7 points from 9 games, we'll get just 30 points. Either way, its relegation form.

that is the definition

Trying to look positive, what a wonderful goal from Bryan Ruiz. Nearly got a second too.

If he had scored a second we would have lost 3-2, thats me being positive as well.

Well done Mr Malone you hooked  :hook: quite a few there  065.gif

We played some great stuff there - if Ruiz's second, or Bobby's first, had gone in we (obviously) wouldn't even be having this conversation.

We're in transition, and today, despite the bad result, I think we saw a glimpse of the team we're going to become - fluid and fast in the attack.

[DUKE]

i am amazed how a lot of our fans look at one individual goal with such optimism when we have lost 3 games in a row. we lost to bloody everton for god sake. this  game used to be a 3 points banker for us. this is relegation form guys.

[PokerMatt]

The thing is though with 'playing some good stuff' is we've already failed to win several very winnable home games in Villa and dreadful Blackburn (and this one). And we've only had one game I can say I wouldn't expect anything from (City, where we snatched a point). Away to Wolves, Newcastle, West Brom - even with our away record you shouldn't roll over, 1 point from 9 there.

It wouldn't be so bad knowing (hoping) that it will take time for Jol's system to work if we hadn't already f'd up so many winnable games. There aren't that many throughout a season really..

I'll have a pint of what your on!!

[ImperialWhite]

FFS!

This time last season we were in exactly the same position
- with just two points more. Two draws. That's it. And we finished 8th.

Chill out! We played some good stuff today - could have won it twice. When we gel (we will) this side is going to be unstoppable.

I agree we don't need to over react. With Murphy playing so poorly and poor finishing and giving fouls away in stupid places plus bad luck. We will be in a struggle all season.

That is a fact.

Jol's system? Which team had the majority of the ball in the last twenty minutes. Wasn't us was it? No overreaction, just depressed and I can see no way out of this.

How dare you say Murphy is playing poorly? Surely not Super Dan our hero who was surprisingly missing thursday but luckily recovered in time for today  :014:

I think you are overreacting !

I have to say that none of that was down to Jol today it had nothing to do with tactics it just was pure bad defending, and bad finishing, Jol put out a good attacking team, and they were stunned by that quick goal, he made the change that everyone around me were screaming for and it worked, then our saviour the man that apparently we cannot do without flops when all he had to do was tap in goes for the glory and the spectacular, after that miss i reckon his team mates were just in shock all beliving he had won them the game.

No was not Jol's fault, no manager can be blamed for that level of play.

[TWFL]

We're in a bad run of form and have been playing rubbish. There was absolutely no movement on the pitch. I dont know if that's because of troubles in the team trust and understanding of the tactics or if it's because some were not up for it but whatever it is it needs to be sorted.
Bobby was awful, Murphy even worse. We need replacements for both.
BUT I'm still confident we can overcome this. Ruiz's goal was superb and was unlucky not to get a second. Let's see what happens in a few weeks. Fingers crossed it goes well, I think it will.

Jol's system? Which team had the majority of the ball in the last twenty minutes over 90 minutes?

Fulham 54%
Everton 46%

Who scored the goals in the last twenty minutes? We can keep the ball until the last five minutes, but when it matters we concede too much to the opposition.
