He could have shut up shop at 2-0, but we looked very comfortable. One stupid moment from Baines and the momentum changed

I don't blame Silva I blame Baines. He's abar 33 and doing kid stuff like that. I'm assuming digne isn't fully fit yet or hed be in. Baines has been around long enough not to do stuff like that no excuses
Im not happy myself, it was gut wrenching, but its all about the bigger picture, just move on and focus on the next game innit.
This really.
Unbeaten with 3 very winnable home games coming up, should be able to build momentum and hopefully kick on from there.
For me it was nothing we didnt know already about our team/squad.
What the new boss can actually do will be a bit more apparent after a couple months...10 games.
A big problem is excitable fans raise their own expectations when we win or play decent or a player steps up with a top performance. Then everything is absolutely terrible when they fall below that standard the next week.
Silva and the players were not super boss when we did well with 10 men at Wolves and beat Southampton, and likewise they are not uber crap now because of that game.
Unless we hit untold levels of awesome or awful during the season, I'll be reserving any strong judgements until he's got a season and two windows under his belt.

We should be on 9 points with two winnable home games coming up. 15 points and maybe people start thinking about challenging the top 6. I’ll predict we get 4 points to sit nicely on 9 points from 5 games, just behind the champions league pace, a ratio that would see us end up about....7th.

Depressing, but we still have the opportunity to climb the table with some decent fixtures coming up. We need to keep our composure
If my Auntie had balls.
2 away draws, with 10 men, 1 home win, unbeaten, positives.
Bet City arent planning on finishing 7th after getting an away win.

Birds of a feather flock together
Getting annoyed by not beating the pub team. As much as I dislike fat Sam (make it clear, am not rating him at all), he knows how to shut up shop. Silva must not repeat what Martinez had done.

No, the positives have been Silva, the Everton machine has undermined him though.
Almost as if the league table gives a reasonable indication of how good a team actually is you mean? Gobsmacked here.

...nailed it
Did himself no favors with the lack of changes until, what, the 84th minute? The minute Baines gave up that pen that should have been the closed door moment everyone was waiting for.

We should have more points than we have.
