2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[Zatara]

Odd to see our unbeaten manager getting stick for Baines dire showing...especially when hes signed his replacement already...

 

[Lanolin]

We should have more points than we have.

Why though? I mean it’s disappointing to have been pegged back today but on balance it’s a fair result I’d say. We’re just not good enough to go away to these places and smash teams, that’s the truth of it. Nobody in the top 4 is looking at a team with a spine of holgate,Keane, Davies, gana, and Tosun and bricking it that we’re coming for them, I can assure you.

...and Baines and Coleman... if we're being honest

Well all of them really, but that central area in particular is way off.

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.

So city are on 7 but we should be on 9 ?

City should be on 9. Disgraceful refereeing in that game as there was in ours.

you're not wrong mate..

Obviously disappointed not to win, but isn't it good to be disappointed with 5 points from 1 home and 2 away games? As others have said, let's wait and see where we are after 10 games. I remain optimistic.

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.

Totally different scenario, we were quite comfortable and they didn’t really have any answer. A punt up top Keane lost his man (again) and Baines loses his mind. The energy then swung

Not when the two away games are a newly promoted team and a team of no quality. And both winning with 15 minutes to go

This’s mentally weak. Same old. I would just throw all new signings in, now.

 

[maccavennie]

4 points lost from winning positions but he'll be extremely disappointed that in those 2 games we basically played with 10 men for 50 minutes in both.

Could and probably should be sitting on 9 points

 

[Toffe3m4n]

We were always going to see a mixed bag early season, maybe even over the whole season. We just need to try and ride it out.

If I'm encouraged by anything it's that the effort seems to be there at least, and the football is bound to improve over time.

We’ve done it a Goodison, rememythe utd game 2 goals in 2 minutes on 90 mark. The energy that a goal gives the players is just one of them things.

The set piece thing is worrying though, Tosun has been at fault for 2 goals now for not defending that near post properly

 

[Petit]

Get Zouma and Digne in now please.
