| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid 14:30 - Nov 8 with 915 views | Hugoagogo_Reborn | Good ball retention, winning it back, Bournemouth struggling to string anything meaningful together. Emmerson's body language seems a little bit negative, he needs a goal soon, I think. Enciso and Palacios continue to look a cut above. |  |

| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:37 - Nov 8 | Blue_Uprising | Really good in transition. Need to find a way for a few more clear cut shooting chances at the end of our moves |  | |  |

You're not allowed to be positive. Got to start picking apart every misplaced pass. |  | |  |
| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:45 - Nov 8 | SWLondonBlue93 | Pretty good overall, which makes it all the more frustrating that we keep shooting ourselves in the foot. |  | |  |
| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:47 - Nov 8 | GlasgowBlue | We are as good as most teams outside the top six but just lacking in a couple of positions. We can't build a team in one window so it's important we stay up and improve those positions next year. |  |

Miserable isn't it. Every week it seems. Forest goal aside, we are having to work so hard for our goals, while repeatedly making school boy errors. Walton today and DOS last week are insult to school boys tbf. |  | |  |
| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:51 - Nov 8 | Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | You can’t give a good team a 1-0 head start, it’s utterly ridiculous we are playing our EFL keeper years later. We have too good a squad to keep letting this hurt us. |  |

| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:52 - Nov 8 | greyhound | We are fantastic in the bud up, defending well and playing well out of tight spaces (1 exception has critically cost us) but our end product is absolutely woeful to the point where we wouldn't get away with it in the championship either. Needs some serious work |  | |  |
| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:52 - Nov 8 | Blue_Uprising | The interplay and transitions up the pitch look so slick today. Been some great passages with Ouattara and Maeda doing great stuff in the right in particular. Probably the best play we have seen this season getting the ball quickly through their lines. But just not got that final ball at the sharp end to create more dangerous openings. Just snatching at the final ball maybe. |  | |  |

We still have a largely Championship level squad, it shouldn’t be surprising. I don’t understand where the expectation that we’re not going to make those mistakes or stay up comfortably has come from. We’ve started well and many of the maligned players have generally outperformed their level, which is why we have a sniff at staying up. But we’re not the finished article and won’t be this season. 17th will be a huge achievement. |  |

No we don’t at least 8 of our first 11 are more than PL quality, some would start in the top half. |  |

| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:55 - Nov 8 | GavTWTD | Bournemouth are in 3rd gear. They've not needed to do anything apart from apply some pressure to the keeper. So frustrating. |  |

| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:56 - Nov 8 | OldFart71 | The problem is you cannot keep saying we played well and lost. There comes a time when the mistakes will cost is dearly. It seems every game someone is either not saving a shot, giving the ball away of not closing down a forward. This isn't a criticism of the team over all. They have far better players than when in the Premier league last time. I do wonder though if we should be a bit stronger in midfield and I cannot understand Matusiwa being on the bench when Lukic is unavailable. GON cannot say he isn't good enough as he hasn't tried him apart from as a late sub. |  | |  |

Sorry - you're not surprised by DOS running away from the ball or Walton inexplicably doing what he did today? I think you'd be in the vast minority if you aren't a bit surprised by the two affore mentioned incidents. |  | |  |

Exactly gave them everything they needed for a foothold. |  |

| Gifted goal aside, we are looking very solid on 14:59 - Nov 8 | quad | You can't say gifted goal aside though. We're in the Premier league and you can't afford to gift goals. As good as some of our players are, we are not going to score 2 or 3 every week. |  | |  |
