I don't want to answer this question.Will people want him next season if we finish below top 10? Could still happen.

Why is anyone arsed about our home record this season ffs?! I've been attending home matches since 1994 and prior to covid I could count on one hand the total number of fixtures I'd missed in all that time, so believe me I understand the importance of them in normal times. Right now though? There's absolutely no significance to them at all!
Seriously people if you're going to cry yourself to sleep tonight and wet the bed at least do it over something that actually matters...........
The Gylfi thing is daft but Carlo's got it in his head he can play there, for some reason.
Call a spade a spade, tactically and mentally we’ve been poor the last two games, we showed a bit more from an attacking sense tonight than on Sunday but it’s not good enough
Davies should not have come off tonight, him going off led to City getting a bit more freedom which got them the 2nd and 3rd goals. He has to go for it on Saturday, even with a half fit Allan and DCL, we need that extra bite in the midfield
The argument is that this is a bad argument because, for example, Maja scored two goals from inside the 6 yard box with no one defending him at the weekend and the GK can't do anything about that.
Spot on mate.Call a spade a spade, tactically and mentally we’ve been poor the last two games, we showed a bit more from an attacking sense tonight than on Sunday but it’s not good enough

You’re so oddI'm coming to the conclusion that his kids are having too much of a say in our tactical approach: BJ and Baby Bop seem pleasant enough, but I'd question their footie nous.
But you don't allow the shot in the first place.The problem is conceding goals is not a good metric for keeper performance. Olsen gave up 4 against Spurs but was miles better on that night than Pickford was tonight. Olsen had no real chance on either Fulham goal at the weekend.
Honestly all things considered our defense was fine tonight. The Mahrez goal wasn't great but that's a belter and it happens. The deflection happens. A shot pretty much down the center from outside the box should not.
It isn't though because I'm looking at what actually happened and while theoretically that situation should produce something the goalkeeper can't do anything with on this occasion the reality is the shot was extremely saveable and he didn't do it.He can't. And Pickford shouldn't be left facing a shot from a world class Bernardo Silva, on his stronger foot, from the edge of the area. Same argument.
We need a new goalkeeper, we know that.
But right now, we can't get one, so we need to start scoring goals at the other end and finding a way to keep that solidity. It's not impossible, and the coaching staff need to do it, or we'll be mid-table again. This isn't about losing to City, it's about how we attacked against City being the same way as how we attack against any team, and it's not good enough.
We can moan at Richarlison for being poor this season all we like, but we don't create enough chances. Statistically or just looking at us play.
I know, for some reason we allow teams to come onto us to easily when our defence really isn’t that good.Was just looking and we've conceded the 6th most in the league this season, surprising given how defensively we're set up.
I highly doubt we stop teams from ever shooting again, but if we do manage that I volunteer to stand in goal and watch the game.But you don't allow the shot in the first place.
